The careers of many well-known people have been ended at Tower Hill. London, but few are known to have commenced there. Some interesting information was recently discovered, however, among some old records of a Warehouse Company in that district. In an early testimonial concerning Mr Ramsay Macdonald, then an entry clerk, it was predicted that he would “rise to distinction.” Last year a smoker of considerable experience was asked what measure of success he predicted for two New Zealand tobaccos, which were about to be placed on the market. Having tried them, he agreed that it would not be long before they were recognised everywhere as New Zealand tobaccos at their best. He was most enthusiastic about the delightful result of toasting. Although pipe smokers are conservative the big swing to Red Shield (dark) and Blue Shield (medium) still continues. The old smoker’s prophecy is coming true. Obtainable everywhere. Two-ounce tins (1/7) and in one-pound canisters. Remember, Red Shield and Blue Shield are toasted to a turn; that’s why they are better
