“It goes without saying,’’ remarked a Dunedin smoke-merchant to a customer, “that some have been rolling their own cigarettes for ages. But now, as the old song runs, ‘everybody’s doing it,’ and it has become a perfect craze.” Well, one newly rolled cigarette Is worth a whole oacket of ‘ready-to-smokes.’ Some packets, bless you, may have been in stock for years, and there’s no flavour left in ’em. Besides, it’s cheaper to roll your own. You try it! Cigarette tobaccos—they’re as plenty as postage stamps; but give me the toasted New Zealand. Your confirmed cigarette smoker often complains of throat-irritation and smokers’ cough. Why? because there’s too much nicotine in his tobacco. Well, there’s hardly any in toasted. It makes splendid cigarettes, and is suitable for the pipe, too. What's 1 -* more, you can smoke toasted in cigarette or pipe and it can’t hurt you, however much of it you smoke. There are five brands: Riverhead Gold. Navy Cut No. 3 (Bulldog). Cavendish. Cut Plug No. 10 (Bullshead) and Desert Gold. The customer now “rolls his own.” H 404
