Tobacco played its part in connection with the Great Plague of London in 1665. Pcpys mentions in his famous “Diary” seeing plague-stricken houses marked with a red cross. He got so frightened later that he states. “I 'was forced to buy some roll tobacco to smell and to clean. This took away tho apprehension.” He escaped infection! Even in that day tobacco was valued as a disinfectant. But it is more efficacious smoked than “chaued. ” Of course the purest tobacco is best for disinfecting purposes just as it is for ordinary use. And the purest tobacco in the world is our own New Zealand “weed.” Owing to being toasted it is practically without nicotine and famous alike as a disinfectant and a smoking tobacco. Sweet, pure, mellow and fragrant, it appeals to all smokers. It is not only cheaper than some brands that could be mentioned but infinitely better and safer. Four brands only: Riverhead Gold, Navy Cut No. 3, Cavendish and Cut Plug No. 10. Don’t accept substitutes. Above arc the only toasted tobaccos. 262
