tobacco industry is one of the most important in the world, and its importance is constantly increasing. It is computed that there are 500 different kinds of tobacco grown within the British Empire alone! Of course, the quality yaries immensely, ; 'but it may be said without fear of contradiction that of all these tobaccos there are none that surpass in purity and fragrance those grown and manufactured in New Zealand by the National Tobacco Co., Ltd., (pioneers of the tobacco industry in the Dominion). Their outstanding merit* is ► largely due to the fayt that they are toasted. This process rids thcm t of the poisonous nicotine, and renders them perfectly innocuous, a point the doctors (heavy smokers as a rule) have ■ not been slow to recognise. Jn fact many of them smoke National brands exclusively. Popular lines: “Riverhead Gold” (mild); “Cavendish” and ■ “Navy Cut” (medium); and “Cut Plug No. 10” (full strength). These tobaccos are on sale by tobacconists everywhere, and also at many gnny•’ffcrs and general stores.—Adyt.
