When the slump (uow happily- a thmg of the past) hit the ld Country the demand for what are called "luxury ' ' l.ines slackened off a lot, but according to latc'st '• advices the cigar trade in Eugland' i.s now livelier tlian ifc has been for many a day. We hlaorilanders are not . so partial to cigar s as they are at. Home, and during the depression tho trade in.them dwindled away to nothihg with us. But ihe demond for tobacco remained as 1'coh hs 'ever. More .espeeially was .this .the' cas'e .regarding ourlfamous toasted brands — Cut Plug No. 10 (Bullshead) Cavendish, Navy Cut No.. 3 (Bulldog), Riverhead Gold and Desert Gold.' These are always wanted. When things are bad the smoker craves them to buck 'hira up; when things are good he wants- them just hecause things are gcod! There's something about toasted that never fails to appeal to lovers of the weed, so sweet is it, so frafrant, so soothing .and comforting. But beware of imitations. They're no good. No more like the real thing. than chalk's like cheese.*
