“Which d’you reckon the best smoke of the day?’’ queried one Auckland ferry-boat passenger of another (his friend) on the run to Devonport. “Any old time is good enough for mo, when it comes to smoking,’’ was the reply. “I start with a pipe before breakfast, and knock off smoking when I turn in.’’ “If I smoked like that,’’ said the other chap, “my nerves would go to pieces in a month.” “Not if you smoked my brand,” was the laughing reply. “And what is your brand?” “Navy Cut No. 3 (Bulldog).” “That’s New Zealand, isn’t it?"“That’s right. New Zealand toasted. No nicotine in it worth mentioning. The toasting extracts the poison. As for flavour, and what the tobacconists call ’aroma’ no other tobacco can get within cooey of it.” “I suppose there are other brands besides the one you smoke?” “Oh yes, Three —Cavendish, Riverhead Gold, and Cut Plug No. 10 (Bullshead). You’d like No. 10. It’s full flavoured. All the boys of the old brigade smoke No. 10. You try it,” He did—and found it good.
