Pipe or cigarettes? What does it matter? — the tobacco’s the thing! Some brands loaded wilh nicotine, arc unfit for anybody to smoke. Other brands are perfectly safe.. Our New Zealand tobaccos, for instance, practically without nicotine, are absolutely innocuous. The toasting they get does it. Delightful smoking, too! They are-unequal-led for flavour and fragrance. Only four brands, remember! Riverhcad Gold. Cavendish, Navy Cut No. 3 (Bulldog), and Cut Plug No. 10 (Bullshead). 331
