San Francisco was the scene of a New Zealand dinner recently when a score of Maorilanders were the guests of an ex-New Zealander. Everything on the sumptuous menu came from N.Z. After the feast a big canister of prime Cavendish Mixture, grown and manufactured in New Zealand by the National Tobacco Company (pioneers of the tobacco industry in the Dominion) made its welcome appearance. The guests were charmed with their entertainment and pronounced the tobacco A. 1., astonishment being expressed that “weed" of such fine quality could be produced in Maoriland. The National Tobacco Company’s goods are all toasted. Hence their freedom from nicotine, and their wonderful flavour and fragrance. They can be smoked without fear of consequences. No other tobaccos can, because they are all more or less rich in nicotine. There are several brands, those most in request being “Cavendish Mixture" (medium), “Riverhead Gold” and "Desert Gold" (mild), “Navy Cut” (medium, a choice blend), and “Cut Plug No. 10“ (a rich dark tobacco of full flavour). All tobacconists. Ask for National Tobacco Company's goods. They are genuine
