"When opening a packet of toasted Gold Pouch tobacco, , ' said an enthusiastic smoker of the JS.Z. weed the other day, "I found it rather dry, so I decided to experiment a little after my own style. I added an ounce of water (about an egg cup full), and allowed the tobacco to soak. It became I quite soft and pliable after a while, just the condition I liko tobacco in. And when I tried it in the pipe I fancied that the aroma had improved, but ■what "was more interesting to me, the tobacco did not burn away so quickly. By adding 1 oz. of water I had increased the weight to 3ozs, which cost me J.s only, and besides, the tobacco now lasts twice as long in the pipe. ,. This Siint will most Ukeiy induce many smokers to try the experiment. * No Home shoUd be without a Knitting machine these days, but let it be one of the leading British Models, which are the ideal machines on the market today. They are not difficult to learn, and the children of 9 or 10 years, and -even blind people become quite experts ?with these Knitters. They are very eimple. One pair of ribbed eocka -can be made in 25 minutes. Think of. the time you spend when you do the •work by hand.
