He bolted into the backblocks general store, and glared at the proprietor. “Wh-what’s wrong?” timidly ventured the,storekeeper. “Remember me coming in yesterday tor a tin of toasted Cut Plug No. 10?” bawled the stranger) angrily. The storekeeper nodded. “Then 1 what the” (profane expression) d’ye mean by giving me this rubbish?”—and pitching a tin on. to the counter he “paused tor a'reply.” The storekeeper l looked silly. iHe had sold a tin of some-! thing no more like the genuine ‘toasted’ than a bit of glass is like a diamond. Without a word he passed over another tin in exchange for the rejected one. Snatching it up and scrutinising the label the indignant customer hurried away. Moral: When you ask for “toasted” see that you get it. There are only five genuine toasted brands, Cut Plug No. 10 (Bullshead), Navy Cut No. 3 (Bulldog), Cavendish, Riverhead Gold and Desert Gold. Famed for their splendid quality and exquisite purity these beautiful tobaccos (the nicotine in which has been eliminated by toasting) are made safe for the smoker.—Advt.
