£IO,OOO for Children’s Homes. The late Sir Henry Whitehead, the well-known British worsted spinner and manufacturer, left an estate valued at £8118,807, He bequeathed £20,000 to provide another lifeboat on the Yorkshire coast, and £40,000 to the Masonic Homes for Children. The late Mr. Jollife. film censor, was fond of his pipe and declared ho could, from his own personal experience, explode the theory that smoking was bad for the eyesight. Of course. _ The enemies of the weed are always inventing stories to its detriment. There's nothing wrong with tobacco, provided it is the right kind. Brands containing an excess of nicotine are certainly injurious, and most, if not all. the imported tobaccos are open to this objection. The purest varieties are produced here in Now Zealand. Containing only a minimum percentage of nicotine these tobaccos may bo freely indulged in with safety. Another point is that the leaf'is toasted in the process of manufacture. This develops flavor and aroma in a very marked way. Even (lie doctors have nothing but praise for these tobaccos, which are manufactured in several strengths so as to suit all tastes. Ask any tobacconist for “Riverhead Gold,” a mild aromatic; “Navy Cut” (Bulldog), a delightful medium, or "Gut Plug No. 10” (Bullakead), a tine full-flavored sort.*
