The bunch of passengers assembled in the “smoker” were talking about tobacco as the Limited sped on its way. “I’ve been told more than once,” remarked the grizzled veteran, with a smile, “that if I’d saved up all the money I’ve spent on tobacco I’d be better off. Possibly. But when I remember the comfort and the blessing my pipe has been to me all these years, I think I’ve had my money’s worth.” “Hear! hear!” from several present). “As for tobacco,” continued the veteran, “I’ve sampled many brands in many lands, and I’ve yet to discover anything better than ‘toasted’. “If you ask me,” chipped in somebody else, “there isn’t anything better.” (Renewed applause). Testimony to the merits of Cut Plug No. 10 (Bullshead), Cavendish, Navy Cut No. 3 (Bulldog), Riverhead Gold and Desert Gold, is constantly accumulating. Not only are these famous brands unequalled for flavour and bouquet but, thanks to the elimination of the nicotine in them by toasting, they may be smoked even to excess and no harm done. All toasted, and no sore throat, no cough!
