There were swapping -'mean. man stories aboard the Rotorua express the other day. Presently the man in. the corner said: “I was travelling from Lyttelton to Wellington awhile ago. In the smoke room after dm ner a well-dressed stranger- asked me for a “fill/' I handed him my brand new pouch. Later, feeling ih' dined for a whiff myself, I ventured to remind this chap that he had not returned my pouch. He had the nerve to tell me he had given it back ‘long ago.’ A barefaced lie, of course. But I couldn’t prove it. The pouch was full of New Zealand toasted tobacco, I smoke nothing else. There’s no tobacco like Cut Plug No. 10. And a s I couldn’t get any on tbe boat. I had perforce to wait for my next smoke till I got ashore. Doesn’t always pay to. be to obliging, does it?” rpjjg tobacco mentioned by this passenger is one of the four famous toasted brands, the other three being Riverhead Gold, Cavendish, and Navy Cut No. 3.
