liven non-smokers must (or should) admit that tobacco is a splendid disinfectant. It was found to be so in the* great plague year in England (166 b) and in our own day medical men often consider it invaluable in helping to ward olf infection. But it is in times of mental stress that so many value it. Every smoker knows how comforting it is in time of trouble. Inferior brands, however, are best avoided, and it should of course, be as free from nicotine as possible. 'I lie American tobaccos by the way, are all more or less loaded with the latter. But our New Zealand rarities, on the other hand, contain very little. Hence their appeal to the smoker who ran go on puffing them all day long if lie likes without fear of consequences. And. owing to thci fact that the leaf is toasted quite a novel notion—they are as remarkable for flavour as for fragrance. Your tobacconist has them. Ask for “Riverhend Gold.” mild. “Navy Cut” (Bulldog) medium, or “Cut'Ring No. 10” (Bidlsliead) full strength.—-Advt.
