All the uukindest things said about tobacco have been said by non-smokers. But what can the man who never smoked know about smoking? And they are often so bitter, these enemies of the weed! Through the ages men -have been persecuted and barbarously treated because they have dared to smoke. In Kussia, in the long ago, smokers a6tuajlly had their noses cut off! (vide Chambers' Encyclopedia). They know nothing of brands, these fanatics. All brands are alike to them —anathema ! Well, its idle to deny that there are brands that contain a heavy percentage of nicotine, and are better left alone. Their habitual use may undermine the constitution, for nicotine is an insidums poison. But happily there are brands which are absolutely innocuous. Our own beautiful toasted New Zealand tobaccos are not only famous for bouquet and flavour but perfectly harmless owing entirely to their comparative freedom from nicotine. The toasting does it! There are only four of these brands: liiverhead Gold, Navy Cut No. 3, Cavendish and Cut Plug No. 10.
