“ITa! Ha! Ha!” laughed the big, fat, jolly man when offererl a “gasper” at an Auckland smoke-concert, “a cigarette is about as much use to me, my boy, as a leg of mutton would be to a vegetarian. Give me my old briar, and I’m happy.” There are plenty of smokers like that. A cigarette is alright now and then, but the seasoned smoker prefers his pipe every time. Ten to one h e prefers toasted tobacco, too, because of its captivating flavour and delicious fragrance. He values it for another reason, also —Tt is practically free from r ; cotine. The toasting rids it of the poison, while rrtost of the imported tobaccos are full of it. You can snioke toasted till all’s blue, and take no harm. There are only four brands: Riverbead Gold, Navy Cut- No. 3, Cavendish and Cut Plug No. 10. These fine tobaccos vary in strength but are of uniform quality—the very. best. Of course there are imitations on the market. That is the penalty every good thing has to pay.—Advt»
