Tobacco is a wonderful nerve soother, and is probably doing more to keep down insanity the world over than anything else. “There’s no comforting draught like the draught through the stem of a pipe” wrote the famous Captain Marryatt. Every smoker knows that, for when in doubt or difficulty or faced with some knotty problem to solve, a man instinctively seeks his pipe—his guide, philosopher and friend always. But unless the quality of your weed is really good, instead of helping, soothing and solacing you, it may have precisely the opposite effect and make you “jumpy” and irritable; it may even affect your heart or throat. Should you, in such circumstances, stop smoking ? By no means! All you’ve got to do is to change over to “toasted”—Cut Plug No. 10 (Bullshead), Navy Cut No. 3 (Bulldog), Cavendish, Riverhead Gold and Desert Gold—and you’ll literally find your troubles end in smoke! Toasting makes these blends as pure as they are fragrant, and safeguards the health of the smoker, for they contain so little nicotine. It’s eliminated by toasting.
