“The little courtesies ot lite formerly paid to my sex by the opposite one are mostly ignored to-day,” laments a lady in writing to a Sydney paper. “Look at our trains and trams. Men travelling by them will not hesitate to smoke in the presence of ladies although they know perfectly well that many ot the latter, even now, find tobacco smoke offensive. I call it most selfish and ill-mannered.” This fair correspondent seems quite oblivious of the fact that special cars are reserved in Australia as In New Zealand for the use of non-smokers. Yet ladies still persist in rushing the smoking compartments, so that smokers are often crowded out. Happily so far as New Zealand is concerned complaints about tobacco smoke are far less common than formerly because most New Zealanders now smoke “toasted,” and its pure, sweet fragrance disarms criticism. All five ot the tested blends, Cut Plug No. 10 (Bullshead), Cavendish, Navy Cut No. 3 (Bulldog), Riverhead Gold, and Desert Gold are (being toasted) almost innocent of nicotine and consequently virtually harmless.
