"So you've given up smoking?" queried the smoker of the nonsmoker as they chatted in the park the other morning — total strangers. "Did you break yourself of the habit by degrees?" The other man laughed. "No," he said, "that's not my wayV I broke it off short and sharp. That was six months ago, and I've never smoked since." But why did you break it oilV" "Doetor's orders. Throat trouble devel'oping." "I 'reckon you miss your smoke?" "You bet I do; but it can't, be helped." "Don't know so much' about that. Ever smoked toasted tobacco?" "No, and now I never shall. I'm through with smoking." "But toasted tobacco's different. No 'bite' in it; very little nicotiri'e in' toasted. Fact is, the stuff's mostly toasted out of it. Don't want to over-per-suade you, but I'd ask the doctor if I were you, for leave to try toasted." "So I will, then." He did. Nnw h,e's enjoying his pipe once more. Toasted is not only the most fragrant and dslightful of all tobaccos, ■'out the most harmless. There's nothing- finer manufactured. Sure relief for Coughs — Colds — Woods' Great Peppermint Cure. W. E, Woods, T4d,, Lambton Qnay, Wgtn.
