At the Wellington police court the other day while a witness was under examination, counsel suddenly hurried across to the “box” and told him he was “on fire.” Smoke was actually issuing from the man’s coat pocket although lie was blissfully ignorant of the fact. When he hastily pulled out his pipe it ivas half-full of burning tobacco. It appeared that he had removed the pipe from his mouth w hen he entered the court, thrust his pocket, and forgotten all abqut it. Smokers arc often very careless in that way—and in another way. They’ll go on smoking tobacco reeking with nico,tine and never realise their danger until their health gives way. Nicotine it cannot too ------ lie insisted is poisonous stuff, and brands rich in it should be rigorously avoid,ed. The safe and sure way is to smoke the genuine “toasted.” The five, brands of the real thing—Cut Plug No. 10 (Bullshead), Navy Cut No. H (Bulldog), Cavendish, Riverhead Gold, Desert Gold, and tailormades are unapproached for quality and being toasted, are perfectly harmless.
