The taste for tobacce once acquired rarely dies. Once a smoker always a smoker. Many a lonely man’s best friend is his pipe, and it’s no less true that many n man would rather go short of “tucker” than short of ’baccy.

There’s no harm in tobacco so long as it’s pure and as free from nicotine as possible. The imported brands, to be sure, often contain a terrible lot of nicotine. That’s bad. But our New Zealand brands contain so little that they are comparatively innocuous and may be freely indulged in with the utmost impunity.

They are in various strengths. * { Riverhead Gold' is mild, 1 ‘Toasted Navy Cut” (Bulldog) is medium. and “Cut Plug No. 10” (Bullshead) is full flavoured. —Advt,
