NO WORD FOR IT (The Eskimo have no word for wai yc a kcturer; l.ij weapons are Igncd for getting him food, not fo lading his fellow-men.) The Eskimos, Untutored, base, Quaintly suppose The human race Was just designed To eat and live. They are so blind The never give A simple thought To means and ways Of cutting short Each other’s days. Which only goes, I think, to prove The Eskimos Are in a groove. Because of all That snow and ice Few experts call To give advice. Progress disdains To show her hand — She’d get chilblains In that chill land. Left in the cold— Just getting fat And growing old. The thought of that Leaves you quite numb? But still .... you know, He’s not so dumb, Your Eskimo. —H.R.

Most brands of tobacco posses, some distinguishing peculiarity. Th peculiarity of our New Zealand brand (produced by the National Tobacc Co., Ltd., pioneers of the N.Z. tobacc< industry) is that once you acquire : taste for them—and it doesn’t tak long—they “spoil” you for all othe kinds. As for the imported tobaccos their peculiarity is that they are al more or less loaded with nicotine, s that their constant use is bound, soon

er or later, to affect heart or nerves, or develop “smoker’s throat.” Thanks to the small percentage of nicotine in the New Zealand brands (already referred to) they are quite safe, and may be indulged in without fear of consequences. These fine tobaccos owe their wonderful purity largely to the fact that they are toasted, which not only helps to eliminate nicotine, but makes them delicious smoking. There are various brands, those chiefly in demand being: “Riverhead Gold” and “Desert Gold” (aromatic). “Cavendish” (medium, sporting mixture), “Navy Cut No. 3” (choice blend), and “Cut Plug No. 10” (rich, dark and full-flavoured). R.P.36. ADVERTISING doesn’t jerk—it pulls. It begins very gently, but the pull is steady. It increases day by day and year by year, until it exerts an irresistible power.
