Tom Blackmorc, the popular London comedian, says one of his best friends is only about six inches high. “We are inseparable,” says Tom. Then he go f, on to explain that his bosom friend is his pipe! Tom Blackmorc, by the way, is a connoisseur in tobaccos, and declares he lias never forgotten sampling some of our Ncav Zealand groAvn leaf Avhich a pal of his (also a pro.) purchased last year Avhen touring the Dominion. “I never smoked any tobacco I liked so much,* says Tom, “very sAveet and fragrant I fomul it, and you can smoke it for hours Avithoui getting a sore tongue. Tell ine of any other tobacco of Avhich that can be said.” Quite right, Mr Blackmorc! There’s no “bite” in our New Zealand tobacco. That’s Avliy it doesn’t burn the tongue. You see there’s hardly any nicotine in it. It ’s toasted. There you have the secret in tAvo words! There are four brands only: Riverhead Gold, Navy Cut No. 3, Cavendish and Cut Plug No. 10. Don’t accept spurious imitations!*
