How the public taste changes with the years! China tea was all the go at one time. Now it is Indian. ‘ln days gone by brandy was the popular spirit. Now it is whiskey. Formerly American tobacco was exclusively smoked. Now the demand is for thejj brands of the National Tobacco Co., Ltd., (pioneers of the tobacco industry in New Zealand), at all events in this country. Ordinary tobaccos (too rich in nicotine) are apt to affect the heart and nerves if smoked habitually. National Tobacco Co.’s goods are practically free from nicotine, and quite safe to smoke. Why? Because they are toasted. This process also accounts for their wonderful flavour and bouquet. And—mark this!—they are the only toasted tobaccos. Ask for “River-

head Gold’’ and “Desert Gold” (sweet „ aromatics), “Navy -Cut’’ (a specially choice blend of medium strength), “Cavendish’’ (the renowned sporting mixture), or- “Cut Plug No. 10" (a fine full-flavoured baccy). These brands (in universal demand.) are on sale at all tobacconists.
