I Ihe great increase in the number 0 j smokers in London—particularly amongs women—according to a recent cable, has led the Managers of the underground railways to transpose their smoking-car riage rules. There are now no smokingcar rages on these lines, but 30 per cent of the cars are labelled -‘Non-Smokers.” It will come to that in New Zealand by-and-J bye. Anti-tobacco-ites may rail against j the weed. But smoking does more good j than harm, provided the tobacco is of j first-rate quality, and as free from nicotine as possible. That’s where our New Zealand tobaccos come in. The leaf is toasted—quite a novel idea—astonishingly. And as they contain only a negligible amount of,, nicotine they may be smoked for hours on end without causing unpleasant or injurious consequences That's why medical men approve them You can get them of any strengthRiverbead Gold” is a delightfu i aromatic, “Navy Cut” (Bulldog) a delicious medium, <s nd “Cut Plug No 10” (Bullshead) a fine full-flavoured variety. ‘Do Your Daily Dozen,” keep yourself in trim, Set the ball a-buzzin’, cultivate your vim, Do your dozen daily, swing along the rings, Do your dozen gaily till each fibre singsTemperance and “tensing” build the frame to health, Vibrant strength and fitness better is than wealth. "Do Your Daily Dozen,” and for colds assure With Woods’ Great Peppermint Cure.

Pipe tobacco alone contributed £130,38 o the New Zealand revenue during the first quarier of the present year, in the shape of Custom’s duties. Wonderful is the popularity of what Charles Kingsley called “the divinest weed under heaven.’ Opponents of tobocco may say what they will, but the fact remains—smoking does more good than harm—provided always that the ’baccy is pure and of first class quality, Tt’s undoubtedly true, however, that brands heavily charged with nicotine are best avoided, and it is no less true that the imported tODaccos are all open to that objection. Our own New Zealand varielies are the best. Sweet

cool, and fragrant they are comparatively free from nicotine and the fact that the leaf is toasted is the secret of their delightful fla--our and fine aroma. They don’t bite toe tongue ; they don’t affect the heart or nerves. They may be indulged in freely without tear of consequences, J here are several varieties. Ask your tobacconist for “Riverhead Gold” mild, “Navy Cut” (Bulldog) medium, or “Cut Plug No 10” (Builshead) full strength.
