'mm mm m m m «► SB is»#S The English Cricketers are all staunch Members of the Mustard Club Learning that the objects of the Mbstard Club include “ gingering-up” fast bowlers, Chapman, Captain of the English Cricket Team, decided to enrol Larwood and Tate as Members. Hammond claimed that he should be allowed to join, since a distant relation of his, Hammond Bacon, was one of the Club’s leading lights. Hammond joined—he is now a greater batsman than ever, as Australia well knows and twice since has scored double centuries. “Hot stuff” all right. Better enrol the whole team said Mr. Chapman. They are all jolly good mixers. All were enrolled. Is it any wonder they won the first three Tests and retained the Ashes? “What is the primest Duck-worth without a Mead of Mustard?” asked a member of the team. “ And without Hobbs and Sut-cliffe in an affair of such burning importance we should been able to retain the Ashes,” claimed another. When the day’s cricketing is “over,” there is a “run” on Mustard Baths for tired muscles. Thus it is that “Pass the Mustard, please” is the “bye’’-word of the English Cricketers that “slips” readily off their tongues. When the “cover” is removed, revealing choice “cuts” of beef or succulent “leg” of pork, they “glance” round the festive board and “point” to the old familiar Mustard pot, knowing they are on a “good wicket.” We understand they are taking home the ashes in the famous mustard pot which Hammond used at the luncheon the day he compiled his 251. Will Wellington or Auckland wifi the Plunket Shield ? We pick the team having most Members of the Mustard Club. For the M.M.C. Badge and copy of Mustard Club rules with Cook Book, send 6d. in stamps to Miss Di Gester — Mustard Club, c/o. Colmau’s Mustard, Wellington. /

“ What a blessing this smoking Is 1 Perhaps the greatest we owe to the discovery of Amer.ca. So wrote the late Sir Arthur Helps, and nillions of smokers the world over have doubtless endorsed his words. But great as is our indebtedness to America lor giving us the priceless boon of tobacco, the fact! remains that many of the American brands in use contain an excess of nicotine. And that is had, as any doctor will tell you. It is no less true that ihe purest tobaccos of ul l j.e., those comparatively free from nicotine are cur oy/n New Zealand varieties. They are so pure in fact that they may be indulged in with the utmost impunity. The leaf is toasted in the process of manufacture. Hence their delicious flavour and delightful fragrance. They come in several strengths, and are thus adapted to all tastes. You can get them at any tobacconist’s. Ask for “ Riverhead Gold” mild, "Navy Hut” (Bulldog) medium, or “ Cut Plug No. 10 ” (BuHshead) full strength. 80
