Naturally! “Mary,” said the mistress, standing in the middle of the study and speaking- to the new maid, “surely you don’t pretend to have cleaned up this room?” She put her finger on a large globe standing on the desk and added severely, “There’s dust here an inch thick.” Mary glanced at her mistress, and replied, “It’s thicker than that, Madam.” . t “What do you mean?” “Why,” replied Mary, “you’ve got vour finger on the Desert of Sahara.”

Bright and early the other morning an old Maori woman, wearing a man’s battered felt hat and brightly coloured shawl, was seated on the steps of a warehouse in Customs Street, Auckland calmly smoking a blackened clay pipe. Two smartly-dressed, laughing girls passed. Said one “How happy the old thing looks!” “She’s enjoying her after-breakfast pipe,” said the other. They seemed much amused. “I wonder,” said the first, “what kind of tobacco she smokes —must be something special, I should say.” “Let's go back and ask her,” said her friend, “just for fun.” So back they went and asked her. The old dame smiled, and said, “Cut Plug No. 10,” adding that she always smoked it. It is one of the five famous toasted tobaccos: Cut Plug No. 10 (Bullshead), Navy Cut No. 3 (Bulldog). Pocket Edition, Riverhead Gold and Desert Gold, and their rare flavour and delightful fragrance appeal to pakeha and Maori alike. And they have another outstanding merit —they are harmless! It’s the toasting that eliminates the poisonous nicotine! But beware of worthless imitations! —R.P. 189-
