'P. G. Wodehouse, whose books have made us all' laugh, has found, he says, “there’s nothing like a quiet smoke to soothe the savage breast,” or words to that effect. Well, the tranquillising influence of good tobacco cannot be over-estimated. It’s as comforting as the recovery of a bad debt. But just as good tobacco soothes and calms, the regular use of some brands may have precisely the opposite effect. Tobacco too rich in nicotine, for example, may if persistently smoked, render the smoker irritable and disagreeable; his nerves become affected, and may, in popular parlance, “go all to pieces,” or he may suffer in other ways. Unfortunately such brands are almost as common as wet days in New Zealand. Beyond the a doubt the purest tobaccos on the market are the well-known toasted varieties, Cut Plug No. 10 (Bullshead), Cavendish, Navy Cut No. 3 (Bulldog), Riverhead Gold, Desert Gold, also tailormades. The manufacturers’ own toasting process eliminates the poisonous nicotine and render them as safe for the smoker as they are remarkable for flavour and bouquet.
