EXPLANATION BY NEW ZEALAND CHAIRMAN.

ARRANGEMENTS WITH AUSTRALIA. By Telegraph—Press Association WELLINGTON, June 8. Referring to the Sydney cable Mr S S Dean, chairman of the New Zealand Rugby Union Committee, states that Australia is expected here next season, but arrangements may be made to send a Maori team to Australia, to be followed in the subsequent season by the New Zealand representative team, prior to the tour to [England. “When tobacco has a very pronounced ‘bite’ ” remarked the coroner at a Chicago inquest (or “autopsy,” as the Americans say), “it is obvious that it contains too much nicotine, and tne habitual use of such tobacco is certamly unwise. It appears that in this case deceased (a house decorator, who died while smoking his pipe), was a h?r. -j smoker, sometimes using as much as two ouunces of tobacco a day. This tobacco, a sample of which I have analysed, was unusually strong. Its nicotine content was three times as great as it should have been. It gradually affected the heart, and its cumulative effect was undoubtedly the cause of death.” Happily New Zealanders run no such risk. Our beautiful New Zealand tobacco is toasted, and this process (necessitating the employment of elaborate machinery and skilled labour), safeguards the smoker, because it draws out the poisonous nicotine besides imparting to the tobacco its famous flavour and unequalled fragrance. There are four toasted brands: Riverhead Gold, Navy Cut No. 3 (Bulldog), Cavendish, and Cut J’lug No. 10 (Bullshead). They are unique.
