Toasted. tobacco P "AVhat’s the great idea?” you' may ask. Well, if you have not yet tried what toasting will do for tobacco loaf you’ve, a pleasure in store. All our woll-known New Zealand grown tobaccos axe toasted in the making. This develops their flavour and aroma, just as tho toasting (or roasting) of cofl'pq or cocoa bi?ans brings out the flavour- and fragrance. Those tobaccos are the’ purest on tho markot, largely because they contain so little nicotine, while tho imported brands are all more or less loaded with it. Now do you see why the doctors recoinmend New Zealand tobacco? Tho proof of the pudding is in the eating, and the proof of tho “weed” is in tho smoking. Those who try the New Zealand tobaccos quickly get to perfer. tlfein to all others. Hence their constantly increasing sale-every-where. . You can get them iii any strength. “Riverhead Gold,” a beautiful aromatic;--‘‘Navy Cut,” a choice mediuih; and “Cut Plug No. 10,” a fine full flavoured variety. “Cavendish Mixture” medium is the latest addition.
