"You’d hardly believe," remarked a Wellington smoke merchant to a customer, "how faddy some men are about choosing a pipe. They’ll turn over tle contents of a show-case for half an hour and then not be satisfied." Are they as particular about choosing tobacco t smilingly queried the customer. Aot so particular as they were before toasted tobacco became so popular," replied the tobacconist. "Ever tried it. "No. Heard a lot about it, though. No nicotine in it, is there?” "Hardly any. Toasting takes the ‘bite’ clean out. No sore tongues or irritated throats with toasted. Quite harmless. “Docs the toasting affect the flavour and bouquet?" "Improves both. I’m selling more toasted than . any other sort." "More than one brand?" came the next, question. "Four," was the reply. ‘ ‘ Eiverhead Gold, Navy Cut No. 3, Cavendish and Cut Plug No. 10.’ "Different strengths, I suppose?" "Yes. I know you like something fullflavoured. What about trying Cut Plug No. 10?" Ho did. Now he smokes no thing else. Connoisseurs say New Zealand 15 toasted tobacco is the purest in the world."
