"Parson?" eaid the tobacconist . to the inquisitive pressman, "yes, parsons are heavy smokers mostly and some of them are amongsfc my best customers. No, they don't bother about cigarettes much, I think, generally prefer tho pipo. Keen judges of tobacco, too. Why I started to gtock the live toasted brands on the adviee of a parson. A good tip, too. My iirst order was only a sma'U onoj, bjfc f'm selUng more toasted now than anything clse. Is it as pure as it is cracltcd up to be? Batherl If there 's any purer (or befter) baccy than Cut Blug No. 10 (Bull's Head), Navy Cut No. 3 (Bulidog), Cavendish, Riverhead Gold, aud Desert Gold, I'd like to know. - Why is it so pure? You want to know a lot, don't you? — because it's toasted. That's why, How is the toasting dpne? Ask the manufacturers. It's t.heir secret. It gets the nicotiue out of the leaf and same time gives these blends their Hue flavour aud beautiful br-u-quet. No, there 's no other toasted tobaccos niarmfactured. What — are you ,0ft! Well so longl Be good."* ,
