Asked by a customer whether he had seen many changes In tobaccopipe fashions during his long connection with the trade, a veteran Christchurch tobacconist said he had seen a number of “ new fangled pipes ” introduced from time to time. “ Not one of them lasted,” he added reminiscently, “ The ordinary pipe is good enough for the ordinary smoker, and he generally prefers a briar. As for tobacco there are more brands than there used to be, but the growing preference is for toasted New Zealand. It’s extraordinary the demand that has sprung up for this tobacco. Of course, the toasting of the leaf vastly improves in flavour and gives the goods their fine bouquet. Aye, and it does more —it gets the nicotine poison out. There’s no other tobacco so free from nicotine. The imported lines are full of it. That’s very bad for the smoker. There are four brands of toasted—Riverhead Gold, Cavendish, Navy Cut No. h and Cut Plug No. 10. No others are manufactured. And, lake it from me, they’ve come to stay.” lit)
