Amy Johnson confesses than on more than one occasion when face to face with grave peril while making that historic flight of hers she found a cigarette a real comfort. Men have very long since discovered the power of the weed to cheer and solace when danger threatens. It steadies the nerves, keeps hope and courage alive. “There’s no kerb like it under heaven,” as Kingsley said. Although tobaccos differ so widely the imported brands are all alike in one important respect—they generally contain an excess of nicotine which renders their habitual use most unwise. To smoke them daily is asking for trouble, because nicotine is a deadly poison and is bound, sooner or later, to effect heart or nerves—perhaps both. The toasting kills the nicotine, so that you can smoke them every day (and all day long if you like), without risk to health or well-being. There are only four brands of toasted—Riverbend Gold. Cavendish. Navy Cut No. 3, and Cut Plug No. 10. All famous for bouquet and flavour.
FOR THE SMOKER. The smoker with a tendency to sore throat or hoarseness will find a valuable friend in Pulinonas. These pastilles sucked slowly, release antiseptic vapours, which soothe and heal. Pulmonas are useful, too, to singers and speakers and relieve quickly coughs, colds, ’flu. Get Pulinonas at chemists and stores. Is 6d and 2s fid.—Advt.
