“Lotta ’flu about?” hazarded a man on the box seat; of the AucklandWhangarei motor coach to a fellow pasenger. “Too right!” was the reply. “Well, best way to dodge the ’flu and anything else that’s going is to keep yer pipe alight.” “That’s orright. But you can’t keep on smoking all day. Burn yer tongue off.” “Depends on the bacca, mate. You cant smoke the ord’nary baccas all day, of course. Too full of nicotine. But you can the New Zealand baccas —all day and all night, too! ’Ardly any nicotine in ’em. The toasting does that! The tobacconist I deal with says they’re “best sellers.” Shouldn’t wonder." That passenger was right. Firstly there’s no finer disinfectant than good tobacco, and secondly there’s no better tobacco than toasted New Zealand. For flavour and aroma it challenges comparison with any other kind. And it’s harmless. There are only four brands: Riverhead Gold, Navy Cut No. 3, Cavendish and Cut Plug No. 10. But look out for imitations when you buy. There are several on the market.
