The tobacco industry is one of the) most important in the world, and its; importance is constantly increasing. It is computed that there are 500 | Different k.nds of tobacco grown with-j in 1h • British Empire alone! Ofi : course, the quality varies immensely.! but it may be said without fear o/ ! contradiction that of all these tobaccosj there are none that surpass in purity i and fragrance those grown and manufactured in New Zealand by the' National Tobacco Co.. Ltd. fpioneers of the tobacco industry in the Do-| minion). Their outstanding merit is! largely due to the fact that they are, toasted. This process rids them of thej poisonous nicotine and renders themi perfectly innocuous, a point the doc-j tors (heavy smokers as a rule) havoi’ not been slow .a recognise. In fact! many of them smoke National brands exclusively. Popular lines: “Riverbead Gold.” “Deser* Gold,” "Pocket Edition” (mild); and ‘-‘Navy Cut No. i 3” (medium); and “Cut Plug No. 10” (full strength). These tobaccos are on ; sale by tobacconists everywhere, and I also at many grocers and general i stores.*
