Why do people smoke. An English social welfare organisation has been looking into this. Three hundred people were questioned, and i.t came out that many thought "handing round cigarettes helps .to break the social ice and hide any inferiority complex." One youth in every three said "Smoking made you feel grown-up," but very few girls said that. One in every eight nonsmokers admitted that -he envied smokers, and one smoker in every flve said that he envied those free from the habit. So there you are! Taking one consideration with another those who smoke are happier and more conJented than those who don't. And if an enquiry could be instituted into the tastes of smokers, it would almost certainly be found that the most populai brands going are the toasted ones — Cut4Plug No. 10 (Bullshead), Cavendish, Navy Cut No. 3 (Bulldog) . Riverhead Gold and Desert Gold; also tailormades. These famous blends, so fragrant and comforting are also the purest, for most oi their nicotine is toasted out oi them. Thus even the heavy smokei is safeguarded.
