The Lure of tobacco! As you may be aware prisoners in our goals each receive an ounce of tobacco weekly j and it’s said that when one of them misbehaves, there is no punishment he dreads more than the stoppage of his tobacco. It’s the same with the inmates of our homes and refuges. The old folks spending the even* ing of their days in these institutions prize the stick of tobacco served out to them once a week, more than anything else. They know the comfort and solace of it. Does smoking harm all these people ? It harms nobody so long as the tobacco is pure and of good quality. Unfortunately, the imported brands are full of nicotine. And it’s nicotine in excess that does the harm when harm arises. Perhaps the purest tobaccos in the world are grown and manufactured in New Zealand. And they are comparatively free from nicotine. Also they are unequalled for fragrance and davour. Ask your tohacconst for “Riverhead Gold” (mild), “Navy Cut” (Bulldog) medium, or “Cut Plug No 10” (Bullshead) full strength.
