P, C. Wren, author of “Beau Geste, ” and other popular novels, is a great smoker. When hard at work on a masterpiece he will consume an ounce of tobacco a day. Strong stuff, too, dud like most American brands rank with nicotine. How docs he do it? It's certainly risky. Many a man “strong as a horse” has had to abandon his pipe because, he smoked the wrong tobacco, that is tobacco rich in nicotine. How comes it that the foreign tobaccos are like that? Our Now Zealand brands (grown and manufactured by the National Tobacco Co., Ltd., the pioneers of the New Zealand tobacco industry) contain so little nicotine that you may indulge as freely as you please with impunity. You see the , leaf is toasted which makes all the difference. These ’baccies don't bite the tongue, and they burn to the last shred. Ask any tobacconist for “Riverhead Gold” (mild and delicious), “Cavendish” (sporting mixture, - medium), “Navy Cut No. 3” (a choice blend), and “Cut Plug No. 10” (rich, dark and fulluavoured). —R.M. 38.*

In disposing of the business of their Levin branch it is the intention of the C.. M.
