“I had rather a trying experience once upon a time,” writes Mr. Robert Seeley in a London weekly. “I was a young new chum* then, one of a party of prospectors in Northern Queensland. One day I wandered away from camp and got ‘bushed.’ It was nearly three weeks before they''found me, and I had some adventures in the meantime, believe me! On tbe third day 1 ran out of tobacco! —Smokers will sympathise! I shall never forget the first smoke I had after 1 was found I—delightful I But nowadays I find the tobacco I used to smoke when on the walla hi has lost its savour. Over much nicotine in it. Since coming to Maoriland I have smoked ‘New Zealand Toasted,’ and ask nothing better. I understand its peculiar fragrance, and comparative freedom from nicotine in this incomparable, tobacco are due to its being roasted. It is certainly the finest I have ever smoked —and the least harmful.” Mr. Seeley refers to the five famous toasted brands —Riverhead Gold, Desert Gold, Navy Cut No. 3, Cavendish, and Cut Plug No. 10.
