Consternation reigned amongst the smokers on the platform at Wellington the other day when the' Jintt train drew up, minus a smoking . carriage. However, there were two ears labelled “A” and “B” respectively, and soraeb dy, pipe in month, exclaimed, “B” is for baccy!” jumped into the “B,” all the other smokers following suit. Presently someone asked. “If ‘B’ is for baccy, what is ‘A’ for?’’ “For abstainers, of course !” came the reply. Everyone laughed. Precious few abstainers from the weed nowadays! Well, there’s no harm in tobacco, so long as it’s pure and pretty free from nicotine. Worst of it is the imported goods are as full of nicotine as they can stick! Funny—our N.Z. hi amis are almost entirely free from the poison. That’s why you can smoko them (even to excess) with safety! The fexplanation is they are all toasted, and toasting gets rid of the nicotine. It also wonderfully improves flavour and bouquet. Popular brands: Navy Cut, Cavendish, Cut Plug No. 10, and Bivcrhead Gold. •They’re all good, and the only toasted tobaccos manufactured.—Adyt.
