can Francisco was the scene of a New Zea’and dinner recently whemi a

• cote of AlaorLanders were the guests of an ex-New Z a'under. Everything on the sumptuous’ menu came from X.Z. After the feast a big canister of prime Cavendish Alixture, grown and manu'aclured in Xew Zealand by the National Tobacco Company (pioneers of the tobacco industry in the Dominion) made its welcome appearance. The guests' were charmed with their entertainment and pronounced the tobacco A.1., astonishment being expressed that “weed” of such line quality could be produced in Mao inland. The National Tobacco Company goods are all toasted. Hence- their freedom from nicotine, and their wonderful flavour and fragrance. They can be smoked without fear of confluences. No other tobacco can, because they are all more or less rich in nicotine. There are several brands, those most in request being “Cavendish Alixture” (modiu'm ).“Riverhead Gold” and “Desert Gold” (mild), “Navy Cut (medium, a choice blend), and “Out Plug No. 10” (a rich dark tobacco of full flavour). All tobacconists'. Ask for National Tobacco Company’s goods. They are genuine.
