At Wanganui Police Court, Mr Barton, S.M., was asked to make an order against a defaulting debtor because he was spending Is 6d a week on tobacco ! His Worship was reported to say: “I can see no more reason for cutting off debtor’s tobacco than for cutting off the.sugar in his tea.” The magistrate apparently recognised that the habitual smoker would go without tea altogether rather than give up his pipe. To a great many men tobacco is not a luxury—it is a necessity. Tobacco haters say it is highly injurious. Tt isn’t so long as it’s pure and good. Imported brands, everyone knows, contain far too much nicotine to he safe. But it is totally different with the New Zealnnd tobaccos. Being toasted—as no other tobaccos are—they are treed iroin nicotine poison and rendered quite harmless even though you them to excess. There are several brands--every smoker knows “Cut Plug No. 10,” “Riverhead Gold.” “Navy ( ut” and “Cavendish,” and knows moreover how good they are.—Advt.
Irritable children often have worms. Give them Wade’s Worm Figs—pleasant to take, sure in action. —Advt.
