“I sometimes hear or read that tobacco is an evil thing,” writes ‘Old Fogey” in the “Onlooker,” “but as a medical man I agree with Huxley that smoking is really no more harmful than tea-drinking. Of course just as there is inferior tea, so there is inferior otbacco. As for myself, I have derived not only the greatest comfort but the greatest help, from my pipe, and that tobacco is invaluable in many cases of brain-fag and mental stress, I know well. The best advice I can offer fellow-smokers is to use discrimination in their choice of the weed'. Purity is essential.” Well, if that is so, as it assuredly is, what about “toasted”? Practically without nicotine (eliminated by toasting), its equal for flavour and aroma has yet to be found. It is at once the purest and most delightful of all tobaccos. There are only the genuine brands: Cut Plug No. 10 (Bullshead), Cavendish, Navy Cut No. 3 (Bulldog), Riverhead Gold, Desert Gold, also tailormades. All toasted, and no sore throat, no cough!
