"Forty cigarettes a day?" said the tobacconist to one of those inquisitive reporters. "Well, that's nothing to . make a song about. Why, I know a chap that smokes fifty, and another chap, an old customer of mine, who smokes seventy. Of course, he couldnt' do it ahd get away with it if he smoked ordinary _ cigarettes, but this man- smokes Riverhead Gold —and rolls his own. Yes, Riverhead Gold is one of the five toasted blends, and Desert Gold is another. These are the champion cigarette tobaccos., You smoke a pipe, but you use Navy Cut No. 3 (Bulldog) , and that's toasted, so you know what toasting can do. The other two toasted blends, Cavendish and Cut Plug No. 10 (Biillshead), are for the pipe too." "Don't know a thing about cigarettes," said the reporter, "but if the two cigarette blends you mention are ' as highgrade ,as my favourite, Navy Cut No. 3,1 reckon they're the.goods." "Sure thing," said the -tobacconist. "The five toasted blends are the pick of the' basket,. if you ask me; also toasted tailormades."
