Another growl about the invasion of non-smoking carriages on the railways by smokers. Somebody wrote to an Auckland paper the other day to say it was “selfish and discourteous” of smokers to offend in this way. Quite, But what about the non-smokers who rush smoking cars (railway and train) every chance they get. Why, smokers are constantly being “crowded out” by non-smokers. Happens every day. As to tobacco-smoke annoying people who don’t smoke it must be admitted that some tobaccos (including most of the foreign brands) are rather rank! Too much nicotine in them. They’re neither good to smoke nor good to smell. That's where they differ so essentially fro mour New Zealand tobaccos, the product of the National Tobacco Co., Ltd. (pioneers of the tobacco industry in N.Z.), which, being toasted (as no other tobaccos are), are practically free from nicotine. Ask for brands: “Riverhead Gold” and “Desert Gold” (mild and mellow), “Cavendish” (sporting mixture). “Navy Cut No. 3” (a tobacco of rare excellence), and the old smokers’ favourite, “Cut Plug No. 10.” No bite, no after effects
