“Saw, bo’,” ho began, “what’s tin's toasted terbacker in the window, anyway? There’s toasted cheese, an’ toasted bread, toasted bacon and toasted kidneys. Likewise toasted' coffee a.n’ cocoa-beans, [ know, but blame my cats if ever J heard till now of toasted terbacker. T)o tell!” Ibe tobacconist sniffed. “Well,” lie said, “you know bow toasting brings out the flavour of the things you’ve mentioned, and it’s just the same with tobacco. Toasting develops flavour and aroma as nothing else does. More—it kills the nicotine in the weed. Smoke toasted all you want! It won’t do you a hnporth of harm. Hardly any nicotine in toasted, but lots in other sorts.” “Then,” said the stranger, “I guess it’s the goods all right. jMore’n one brand, boss?” “FoPr,” .ronded the tobacconist. “Riverhead Gold, Navy Cut, Cavendish, and Cut Plug, which is the strongest.” “Gimme a tin of that, then, “an’ ef I like it I’ll sure come back.” “You’ll like it, alright, I sell more toasted than any other.” The stranger was as good as his word. He “sure came back!” —Advt.
