Since then science has discovered that toasting the tobacco leaf—an elaborate process—eliminates so much of the nicotine that the balance is of no consequence, so that smoking can be indulged in even immoderately and leave no ill after-effects. That discovery is of the first -importance, because nicotine, one of tlie fi . deadliest poisons known if ~ absorbed even in minute quantities into the system daily through the pipe, must, sooner or later, affect heart or nerves. Now the quantity of nicotine in the. imported brands of tobacco is invariably large, while the toasted New Zealand tobaccos contain next to none.
