The amount of tobacco consumed by different smokers varies considerably. Some will use a couple of ounces a day, while others are satisfied with les3. The moderate smoker averages perhaps three ounces a week. Indulged in with discetion, tobacco is admittedly rather beneficial than otherwise. It is chiefly a question of nicotine. The habitual use of tobacco heavily charged with nicotine may result in nerve and heart trouble or v eakening of the eye-sight. As a matter of fact, practically all imported tobaccos contain an excess of nicotine. In that connection it may interest the reader to learn that the purest tobaccos produced are grown in New Zealand. They contain comparatively such a small percentage of nicotine that they may be indulged i ad. lib., with safety. A peculiarity of tueir manufacture, by the way, is that they are ail toasted. Hence their fine flavour. They are adapted to all tastes. F overhead Gold is mild. Navy Cut (Bulldog) medium, and Cut Plug No io (Bull’s Head) full. You can buy them at any tobacconists.
