At Wanganui Magistrate’s Court the other day Mr Barton, S.M., was asked to make an order against a defaulting debtor, cousel arguing that defendant admitted spending is 6d a week on tobocco. The Magistrate is reported to have replied: “I can see no more reason for cutting off debtoi’s tobacco than cutting off the sugar in his tea.” Doubtless Mr Barton recognised that the habitual smoker would go without tea altogether rather than give up his pipe. To a great many men tobacco is not a luxury—it is a necessity. Anti-tobaccoites say it is highly injurious, it isn’t provided the right kind of tobacco is used, The imported brands, we all know, contain far too much nicotine to be wholesome.

That’s because they are toasted. Ask any tobacconist lor "Riverhead Gold” mild, ’iNavy Cut" (Bulldog) medium, or “Cut Plug No 10" (Bullshead) full strength.
