In her very readable “Confessions of a Society Woman” the anonymous writer says he became “engaged’’, when 17 years of age. At that time women had a horror of tobacco-smoke, so this young lady exacted a pledge from her t ‘inteu J ed”—most reluctantly given—that he would abandon smoking for ever before they were married. Six months later the young wife was glad to absolve her husband from his vow. She states his temper, as the result of enforced abstinence from tobacco became “abominable.” •Direcely he resumed his pipe he became his old genial self again [ Moral : Every lady , should encourage her husband to smoke. Robert Louis 'Stevenson said that, and he knew! Of course discrimination should b e . exercised in the choice of tobacco. Som e uraeds are not at all likely to promote harmony in the home. “The World’s purest” is “toasted New Zealand.” No’ nicotine in it or next to none. It’s toasted!—and how good it is!
