It was aboard the ChristchurchDunedin express and the young cockney new chum kept them roaring with laughter. “The clurk wot booked me passage at the booking off us in London.” he said, “told me there wasn’t no ’ouses in Noo Zealand, nothing’ but tents, and skited I’d want a gun ter shoot the wild Mowries wot was halways a prow’lin’ arlrand arter scalps. Pulled me leg proper, e did. the cow! Me for a smoke now. And there's somefin’ I’ll ’and it to Noo Zealand for special, and that’s toasted bacca! Used to smoke shag in White-chapel, but shag’s not in it wif Cut Plug No. 10. A fair treat. Well, ’ere’s Hashburton. This is where I op it.” And grabbing his bag he vanished. It's the toasting that makes these famous tobaccos different from the others. It works most of the nicotine out of them and leaves them sweet as a nut. You can smoke them all day long with safety and real enjoyment. Five brands only—Cut Plug No. 10 <Bullshead>, Navy Cut No. 3 (Bulldog), Cavendish. Riverhead Gold and Desert Gold
