Smoking in tramcars lias given rise to quite an animated correspondence in a Melbourne paper. “I think men are abominably selfish,” runs one letter. “Smoking their horrible pipes and cigarettes tiiev will enter a car, perhaps half full of ladies, many of whom (even in this ‘advanced’ day) find tobacco smoko most offensive. Surely these men might refrain from smoking for the little while they are travelling by tram? Is that asking too much of them? But the courtesy formerly paid to my sex is dead.” Now, isn’t that about the limit? Special cars are provided for the use of smokers, and yet ladies (who don’t smoke in public conveyances) will persist in rushing them, with the result that smokers are “crowded out.” Happily, complaints about tobacco-smokers are rare in N.Z.—because most men here smoke “Toasted,” and its pure, sweet fragrance disarms criticism. All four brands —Cavendish, Navy Cut No. 3 (Bulldog'), Riverhead Gold, and Cut No. 10 (Bullshcnd> —are practically without nicotine (being toastod_)• and perfectly harmless. 370 One bottle of Sharland’s “MOA” Brand Egg Preservative will do 20 dozen eggs. No mess! N( full! Clean and economical. All stores. *
