Yet another tobacco “bogey” bowled over. For generations enemies of the weed have been denouncing smoking as a common cause of cancer of the tongue or mouth. Now the • Grand Ojuncil of the British Empire Cancer Campaign has discovered, after a lengthy series of exhaustive experi-, ments, that tobacco is not a cancerproducing agent at all. Thus antitobaccoites are deprived, “at one full swoop,” .of one of their favourite arguments against smoking'! ■ But although tobacco has thus been shown to be innocent' of causing cancer, it •sdinetimes proves highly injurious in other ways. Brands rich in nicotine (as the imported •certainly arg) may play the dickens-with the nerves, the heart,, and the eyesight if. smoked habitually. The purest tobaccos/of all ' are the .I^ T ew Zealand. Unlike ,aii’y other brands they, are all toasted.,-This process helps enormously to rid' them of nicotine and ‘ renders them . quite harmless. Oh; yes, they appeal to all smokers•'because there are /several brands—‘‘Biverlituicf 'Gold,” “Navy Cut,” Cavendish, ” and the old smoker’s ’ favourite, “Cut Plug No. 10.”—Advt, Put Sharland’s Vinegar in your cruet -—it is unexcelled for table use. Pure, piquant, strong. Stocked by all grocers—in bulk or bott'e.—Advt.
