For the weary brain-worker there are.worse ways of spending a welcome‘.‘night off” than by the fireside, witE pipe" and book for company. But the tobacco for such occasions should bo a brand that can he smoked with enjoy* ment for three or four hours at a, stretch without burning the tongue of; other unpleasant consequences.''"'Where is such tobacco to bo found?- Why right' here in New Zealand.' And it owes its excellence to two things, principally. Firstly, it contains only a minimum amount of nicotine, and secondly it is toasted in tire process of manufacture.
