George Robey, tbe famous London comedian, relates in his amusing reminiscences, that he smoked his first cigarette when he was 14, and enjoyed it so much that he annexed one of his father’s pipes “and had a go at that.” He sums up that experience in two words—“Oh my!” He left tobacco severely alone after that for a long time. Then he tried again, “and ever since has preferred a pipe to any other way of smoking.” Well, there nothing like a pipe—unless it’s a cigarette. But make sure your tobacco’s right. It should be pure, have flavour and aroma, and be as free as possible from nicotine. So those who smoke “toasted’ can’t go far wrong! For it’s wonderfully pure, there’s next to no nicotine in it, because it’s toasted, consequently harmless. And as for flavour and bouquet, where can you find its equal? Six brands only of the genuine toasted: Cut Plug No. 10 (Bullshead), Navy Cut No. 3 (Bulldog), Cavendish, Riverhead Gold, Desert Gold and Pocket Edition. They vary in streng’K, but the quality’s the same—unapproachable.
