Burglars have been unusually busy in many parts of New Zealand this winter, and surprise lias been expressed that the “swag” secured lias so often taken the form of tobacco. But tobacco, it must he remembered, is not nearly so easy to identify as most other things; also, it is saleable almost anywhere and readily convertible into hard cash—one more proof of the hold that smoking has got on the world. The habit is soundly abused by nonsmokers. Vet it contributes to the comfort and happiness of millions every day. If tobacco proves injurious it is because it contains an excess of nicotine. The imported brands are full of it. The purest: tobaccos of all are our New Zealand ones. Contain-' ing only n trifling percentage of nicotine they may be smoked without fear of consequences. They possess a peculiarly delicious flavour and a most delightful aroma. Ask for “Riverhead Gold” (mild), “Navy Cut” (Bulldog), medium, or “Cut Plug No. 10” (Bull’s head), full strength. Aou can get these brands from any tobacconists.—Advt.
