Alongside was a youth puffing a cigarette. “Fond of smoking?” queried the old gentleman. The youth nodded. “All,” said the veteran, “you must, serve an apprenticeship to smoking before you can appreciate it properly or realise, the blessing that it is.” “What tobacco do you smoke, sir?" asked the lad. “Toasted Dut. Plug No. 10, the best tobacco t know of. It's the sort yon can ‘day-dream’ on. Hut, (with a smile) you don't have day-dreams, \ suppose? You will though some day." The youth stared. The old gentleman relapsed into silence again. Cut Plug No. 10 (Uullshead), so rich and mellow, is indeed, good to “day-dream" on. equally popular are the ottier toasted brands. Navy Cut, No. t! (Hulldog), Cavendish. Hiverhead Cold and Desert Cold. The two latter make ideal cigarettes. These beautiful tobaccos owe theic extraordinary merit in part to Hie fact that they are toasted— therefore perfectly harmless. Hut beware of worthless imitations. \ G l
