After dinner they adjourned to the smoke-room, where the host produced a decanter of Scotch, a . syphon, a silver box of cigarettes, and a tin of tobacco. Idly picking up the tin the guest read-: “Toasted Navy Cut No. 3.” “Why Toasted,” he queried. “Improves the flavour, what?”, “Ay,” replied the host, “and eliminates the nicotine, or most of it. Don’t know another tobacco that’s so good—or so safe. Try it?” The guest-lit up, and sinking back into the depths of his luxurious chair, lazily watched the smoke-rings. “By jove!” he said, at last, sitting up, it IS good ! —American?” “Easy to see your a new chum,” laughed the host, “no, my boy, not American ; its grown and manufactured in New Zealand. What d’ye think of that? Brands?' There are five: Cut Plug No. 10 (Bullshead), Navy Cut No. 3 (Bulldog), Cavendish, Riverhead Gold and Desert Gold.” .“I’d not the faintest idea New Zealand produced such tobacco,” declared'the guest with enthusiasm. “We live and learn,” replied the host as he passed the decanter.— Advt.
