Another tribute, to the virtues of the weed! Air. Dobert Lynd, a well-known English journalist, recently wrote: “It seems to me that pipes, cigarettes and cigar; produce in life something of the effect that full stops, indue... semi-colons and comas produce in prose. They break things up, and so relieve the monotony for the weaker brethren.*’ But the beneficial effects produced by tobacco are not confined to the “weaker brethren.” “The magic herb” appeals to all, gentle and simple, brain-workers and manual toilers, the cultured and the. uncultured. It helps immeasurably not only to dispel the “mono.tonv of life,” but to cheer and comfort the despondent, the afflicted and the lonely. The one thing needful is to see that it is pure, and perhaps the purest tobacco procurable anywhere is the New Zealand. It’s toasted, and therefore harmless. And- bow good it is!—the sweetest, most fragrant, soothing and delightful! There are five brands, and they are equally popular; Navy Hut No. -5. Diverbead Gold, Desert Gold, Cavendish, and. Cut Plug No. 10.
