Thought you might be one (if those pcrnickctty nonsmokers. I can’t abide them. Smoko myself. Like a spot, too, sometimes. Think you’ll suit me. But what tobacco d’ye smoke —American? Hey 1 What?” “Yes, Sir. Plug.” “Cut it out, young man, cut it out, and substitute . tho New Zealand. Far better lor you. It’s toasted. Tho American isn’t. Full of poisonous nicotine. What?
