Another tribute to the virtues of the weed! Mr. Robert Lynd, a wellknown English journalist, recently wrote: “It seems to me that pipes, cigarettes and cigars produce in life some- u thing of the effect that full stops," colons, semi-colons and comas produce in prose. They break things us, and so i*elieve the monotony for the weaker brethren.” But the beneficial effects produced by tobacco are not confined to the “weaker brethren.” “The magic herb” appeals to all, gentle and simple, brain-workers and manual toilers, the cultured and the uncultured. It helps immeasurably not only to dispel the “monotony of life.” but to cheer and comfort the despondent, the afflicted and the lonely. The one thing needful is to see that it is pure, and perhaps the purest tobacco procurable anywhere is the New Zealand. It’s toasted and therefore harmless. And how good it is! —the sweetest, most fragrant, soothing and delightful! There are five brands, and they are equally popular: Navy Cut No. 3, Riverhead Gold, Desert Gold. Cavendish, and Cut Plug No. 10. R.P. 25.
