Aboard the Auckland-Thames train: “If I had my way,” said the man in the corner, “I’d gaol the manufacturers of some brands of tobacco.” Here he stared hard at his neighbour whose pipe was certainly very much in evidence. “Meaning the bacea I’m smoking?” inquired the other. “One o’ them bacca cranks aintcher?” “On the contrary,” was the reply, “I’m a heavy smoker, but I like decent tobacco, not stuff the smell of which makes me ill. Why don’t you chuck' the braiid you’re smoking and try the New Zealand? It smells as'good as it tastes, and can’t hurt you if you smoke a p< und a, week.” The other chap pondered that. Then he said he’d “give it a go.” He can’t, do better. New Zealand tobacco is about the world’s purest. The toasting (or roasting) it gets when manufactured accounts for that—also for its beautiful flavour and delightful fragrance. Only five brands: Riverhead Gold, Desert Gold, Navy Cut No. 3, CaVendish, and Cut Plug No. 10. They are all “best sellers.”
