What! Fifty guineas for a tobacco pipe? Yes, that was the figure do manded by a London tobacconist recently for an elaborately carved Meerschaum exhibited in his Bond Street window. Some pipe that. But a smoke out of a shilling briar would taste just as good! It’s not the pipe that counts. It’s the tobacco you stuff it with! Purity is the great thing the purer the tobacco the less nicotine it will contain.. The foreign tobaccos are full of the stuff. That’s why their constant use is so bad. The purest tobaccos of all are the New Zealand. Their comparative freedom from nicotine is largely due to the toasting of the leaf. You can smoke them till the cows come home, and no harm done., There’s a brand to suit everybody. Those in most request are: “Cavendish” (the sporting man’s favourite), “Navy Cut No. 3” (another delightful medium,) “Riverhead Gold” (a sveet mild aromatic) and “Cut Plug No. 10” ( a tobacco the vetern smoker will enjoy because it is rich, dark, full flavoured sort). They are on sale by all tobacconists. Ideal for pickles, sauces; salads, or for ordinary table use—Slmrland’s. Vinegar. You cannot better it. In bottle or bulk.—Advt.
