Perhaps the inost important development so far made in connection with the manufacture of tobacco is the discovery by scientists that the toasting of the leaf helps most materially to eliminate the nicotine contained in it. Nicotine is so deadly a poison that a drop or two may cause death. It will thus be seen that tobacco very rich in nicotine —as practically all the imported brands are — is positively unsafe if . constantly smoked. Absorbed day after da t \ into the system it. will, sooner or later, affect heart, nerves, throat, eyesight, lit this connection it is interesting to note that our beautiful New Zealand tobaccos—Riverhoad Gold; Cavendish, Navy Cut and Cut Plug No. ]0 all are toasted ancl thus freed front nicotine they are rendered absolutely innocuous. Smoke them all the year round (and all day long if you like', and they’ll do you no harm. Note the names of the brands because these are the. only toasted tobaccos on the New Zealand market. But look out for imitations!—Advt.
