Many a good story is told about smoking and smokers. The latest comes from Auckland. A bricklayer was called sharply to account by his foreman for smoking “on tho job." “I'm not smoking," he replied. “But your pipe-is in your mouth," declared ! tho angry foreman. “That's right," said the bricklayer, “and my boots arc on my feet, but I’m not walking." The foreman passed on. By the way, if you are looking for something spec-' ial in the shape of 'baccy, try our New Zealand varieties. They arc excellent and their fine flavour and delightful fragrance are largely duo to tho fact that the leaf is toasted. This is quite a novel idea. Also (unlike the imported) they contain only a rtifling percentage of nicotine. That’s why doctors favour them. Thanks to their wonderful purity, they may be smoked all day long without fear of consequences, They come in several strengths. “Riverhead Gold" is mild; “Navy Cut” is medium; and" Cut Plug No. 10" is a splendid full-flavoured to- 1 bacco. The latest addition is “Cavendish Mixture."
