Many a good story is told about smoking and smokers. The latest comes from Auckland. A bricklayer was called sharply to account by his foreman for smoking “on the job.” “I’m not smoking,” he replied. “But your pipe is in your mouth,” declared the angry foreman. “That’s right,” said the bricklyaer. “And my boots are on my feet, but I’m not walking.” The foreman passed on. By the way, if you are looking for something special in tlie shape of ’baccy, try our New Zealand varieties. They are excellent, and their fine ilavour and -delightful fragrance are largely due to the fact that the leaf is toasted. This is quite a novel idea. Also (unlike the imported) they contain only a trifling pertentage of nicotine. That’s why doctors favour them. Thanks to tlieir wonderful purity they may bo smoked all day long with■ou tfcar of consequences. They come in several strengths. ‘Tt-ivcrhead Gold” is mild: “Navy Cut” is medium; and “Cut Plug No. ID’’ is a splendid fullflavoured tobacco. The latest addition is “Cavendish Mixture.”
