A girl who advertised in an Auckland paper for a husband the other day mentioned some of her attractions, amongst them that she was a “good cook,” “considered good-look-ing,” and didn’t smoke. If this lady marries a non-smoker it is to be hoped that they’ll live happily ever after, as the story books say. But if she marries a smoker, there may be “family jars” sooner or later, to follow. Stevenson said no woman ought to marry a man who didn’t smoke, and there’s no doubt at all that smokers as a rule are far easier to get on with than non-smokers. “The pipe of peace,” say the Indians, and smoking certainly makes for harmony in the home in most cases. The most soothing, delightful, comforting, solacing and cheering of all tobaccos, by the way, are the five toasted blends, Cut Plug No. 10 (Bullshead), Navy Cut No. 3 (Bulldog), Cavendish, Riverhead Gold and Desert Gold also tailormades; and being toasted, they’re comparatively harmless. For many years before the public now they have won their way to popularity by sheer merit.
