"No woman should marry a man who doesn’t smoke,” declared Robert Louis Stevenson on one occasion, and “RLS ,” it must be admitted, knew human nature. Another famous author, Bulwer Lytton, once wrote: "He who doth not smoke hath either known no ,, T eat oricf or rcfuscth himself the softest consolation next to that which comes from heaven.” As to the harmfulness of the habit, it chiefly depends on the tobacco. Brands loaded with nicotine should be shunned. In that, and all other respects, our genuine New Zealand-grown tobaccos hold pride of place, since they contain 'very little nicotine, and may be freely indulged in without affecting nerves or heart, the secret of their freedom from nicotine is that they are toasted —as no other tobaccos are. Hence, also, their wonderful flavour and fragrance. They are exclusively manufactured by the National Tobacco Co., Ltd. (pioneers of the N.Z. tobacco industry). Favourite brands: "Riverhead Gold” (a mild aromatic), "Ifldvy Cut” (a choice blend), "Cavendish” (the sportsman’s smoke), and "Cut Plug No. 10” (rich, dark and ful.-flavoured).
