What Chance ? - ~ Hotel Porter (expecting tip): Hope you ’ll have a comfortable journey, sir. Scot: Verra sorry, laddie, hut I’ve gn’en ma sma’ change to the chambermaid. Hotel Porter: ' She told me you didn’t give her anything. Scot: A —weel, if I didna gie yon bonnie lassie anything, what sort of chance d’ye think ye’ve got? The taste for tobacco once acquired rarely dies. Once asmoker always a smoker. Many ia lonely man’s best friend is his pipe, and it’s no less true that many a man would rather go short of “tucker” than short of ’baccy. Let those who rave against smoking —generally because it makes them ill—go on raving. Those w T ho know the pleasure the pipe gives, the comfort and consolation it brings, will never be convinced to the contrary. Why should they? There’s no harm in tobacco so long as it’s pure and as free from nicotine as possible. Tho imported brands to be sure often contain a terrible lot of nicotine. That’s bad. But our blew Zealand brands contain so little that they are comparatively innocuous and may be freely indulged in with the utmost impunity. Yes, and what’s more they’ll soon spoil you for any other kind, they are so sweet and fragrant. They are in various strengths, “Biverhead Gold” is mild, “Toasted Navy Cut” (Bulldog) is medium, and “Cut Plug i-.(. iu” (Bullshead) is full flavoured.*
