The Into Fergus Hume, whose "Mystery of a Hansom Cab” made all London talk once upon a time was then a, heavy smoker but very fastidious in his choice of tobacco, maintaining that pure tobacco was harmless but that if it contained overmuch nicotine it might do infinite mischief. Doctors will confirm that. But really pure tobacco, that is tobacco containing a trifling percentage, of nicotine, is not met with everywhere every day. Even in London it is rare. Hero in Maoriland it may be obtained at the nearest tobacconist’s shop! The New Zealand grown and manufactured article is probably the purest and least harmful in the world, and smokers may indulge in it to their hearts’ content without running the smallest trisk. This famous tobacco owes its excellence to the fact that it is toasted—the only tobacco that is, by the way. This process draws the poison out of it besides accounting for its wonderful flavor and matchless bouquet. Four brands only; Cut Plug No. 10, Cavendish, Rivet-head Gold and. Navy Cut No. 3.*
