ANSWERS TO CORRESPONDENTS. "Augument"—Hamilton: There were no New Zealand boxers at the Empire Games in Canada last vear.

How can .they be, choked as they generally are,"with foul nicotine? The purest tobaccos the world contains are the toasted New Zealand ones. The toasting frees them of nicotine, and also imparts to them their famous flavour and matchless aroma. As Imitations are on the market, buyers should note that there are only four brands of toasted: Riverhead Geld, Navy Cut No. 3, Cavendish and Gut Plug No. 10.
