A retired "Wellington business man not long since returned to the windy City after a world’s tour, was referring in the smoke-room of ins hotel recently to some of his experiences. Me said that during his Havels lie had made it his business as an old smoker to sample, as many brands of tobacco as he could, “and I suppose T shall l)e 'within the mark,” he added, “when I say that I have trie/1 out fifty or sixty different kinds while en route. Not one of them, was equal in my opinion, to the New Zealand toasted tobacco. For flavour and fragrance, and above all for its comparative freedom from nicotine—due, as they tell me to it being toasted—this tobacco stands alone. It is unique. Many a pipeful did I give away during my trip, and everybody liked it.” The toasting process referred to by this gentleman*—an elaborate one enough —renders the tobacco so treated perfectly harmless. As most smokers know there are four brands: Navy Cut No. 3 (Bulldog), Cavendish Riverhead Cold, and Cut Plug No. 10 (Bullshead).
