The clear (del lady smilingly approached the tobacconist with: “1 want some cigarette tobacco for my sou.” “Certainly, Madam,’’ said the tobacconist, “what kind would you like I*'” “Oh, • forget its name, replied the old lady, “but it’s the tobacco iny »on says nearly everybody’s smoking now.” The tobacconist smiled. “Then this will be it, ’ he said handing over a tin of Tliverhead Gold- “That, Madam,”, he entinuod, “is the finest cigarette tobacco money can buy. It’s quite harmless, too, because being toasted by a sjrocial f.- process, it’s practically free from nicotine.” The old lady beamed. “I am sure, that must bo the tobacco my sou wants,” she said, “I suppose you sell a lot of it ” “Any amount,” replied the tobacconist, “you see it’s everybody’s favourite.” Well pleased, the old lady smilingly departed. Riverhead Gold, as all who “roll their own” know, is one of the five famous toasted brands; Riv-er-head Gold, Desert Gold. Cavendish, Navy Cut No. 0 ("Bulb dg), and Cut Plug No. 10 ( Bullshead). Ah several worthless imitations are about—-be careful when you buy.
