Mount Kuapehu was veiled in mist for the greater part of last week-end, and, owing to the bad visibility, it was not known whether the activity in the crater lake is continuing. On those days a dense column of steam was seen rising to a height of about 1000 ft. Arrangements made for a party to climb the mountain the other day were postponed on account of the unsuitable conditions. The activity of Ngauruhoe has not yet ceased entirely, and black and white vapour is still issuing in small quantities from the crater. WHO SAID? “ Tobacco has made more good men, good husbands, kind masters and indulgont fathers than any other blessed thing on this universal earth.” —"Sam Slick —the Clockmalcer.” “Tobacco smoke is the one element in -which by our European manners, men can sit silent together without embarrassment. ’ ’ —Thomas Carlyle. “The pipe draws wisdom from the lips of the philosopher and shuts up the mouths of the foolish.” —Thackeray. “Smoking makes me a better Christian.” —Bishop Moorhouse. “I do hold it and will affirm it before any prince in Europe to be the most sovereign and precious weed that over earth tendered to the use of man.” —Ben Jonson.. “There is nothing to equal the pleasure I get out of my pipe since I switched to Blue Shield (Medium) and Red Shield (Dark). They are indeed New Zealand Tobaccos at their best — and so delightfully cool and satisfying —at 1/7 per 2oz. tin—l consider them very modestly priced.” —Thousands of smokers who have learned how good tobacco can really be. ~ 9
