Interesting to smokers! Professor Sheleraft,, an English analytical chemist of repute has been experimenting with nicotine, and solemnly warns smokers of the danger of using habitually brands of tobacco containing a heavy percentage of this well-known poison. Although, says the professor, it is possible to use such brands for years without ill-effects manifesting themselves it can only be a question of time when they do. Then the smokers’ nerves may go tc pieces or heart trouble develop as the result of smoking the wrong tobacco! Such cases are common although their origin is not alw’ays suspected. Happily Dominion smokers are not exposed to risks of this kind because our New Zealand tobacco contains so little nicotine that it really doesn’t count. The special purifying process to which it is subjected in the factory removes most of the nicotine content. Hence its unusual purity, fine flavour and delightful fragrance. The smoker never tires of this tobacco. There are four choice brands: Riverhead Gold, Navy Cut No. 3, Cavendish, and Cut Plug No. 10.
