There were swapping 'mean man stories aboard the Rotorua express the other day. Presently the man in; the comer said: "I was travelling from Lyttelton to Wellington awhile J ago In the smoke room after diirv ner a well-dressed stranger asked me for a "fill." I handed him my brand new pouch. Later, feeling inclined for a whiff myself, I ventured to remind this chap that he had not returned my pouch. He had the nerv© to tell me he had given it back 'long I ago.' A barefaced lie, of course. BuC I couldn't prove It. The pouch was | full of New Zealand toasted tobacco. I smoke nothing else. There's no 1 tobacco like Cut Plug No. 10. And la s I couldn't get any on the boat, I I had perforce to wait for my next smoke till I got ashore. Doesn't alI ways pay to; be to obliging, does it?" The tobacco mentioned by this, passenger is one of the four fam-. ous toasted brands, the other three being Riverhead Gold, Cavendish, and Navy Cut No. 3. 'FLU NEWS FROM FNGI AND Enßter-l '■■- 'l.
