Pipe tobacco alone contributed £83130, o the New Zealand revenue during the first quarter 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 t’s undoubtedly true, however, that brands heavily charged with nicotine are best avoided, and it is no less true that the imported tobaccos are all open to that objection. Our own New Zealand varieties 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 flavour and fine aroma. They don t bite the tongue ; they don’t affect the he irt or nerves. They may be indulged in freely without tear of consequences. There are several varieties. Ask your tobacconist for “Riverhead Gold” mild, “Navy Cut” (Bulldog) medium, or “Cut Plug No 10” (Bullshead) full strength.
