Rough on smokers —the new Customs Tariff! The increased duty on cigarettes means that most chaps will roll their own—the cheapest way, by far! A# for cigars, tobacconists say the heavier duty (irrespective of quality) will wipe out the trade in the lowerpriced cigars altogether, and that the tariff changes will enormously increase pipe-smoking. Bound to! WeU, altei all, for a thoroughly satisfying and enjoyable smoke there’s nothing like a pipe! But don’t, unless you are looking for trouble, keep on smoking the nicotine-loaded, imported tobaccos. Nicotine is deadly stuff to fool with, and most foreign brands are full of it. The constant use of such tobacco may imperil your health. Ihe safe, way is to stick to Now Zealand toasted baccy. So little nicotine in it that it may be smoked even to excess with impunity. And for flavour and fragrance ! it stands alone! There are only four brands manufactured: Riverhead Gold Navv Cut No. 3, Cavendish, and Cut Plug No. 10. OF course, there are imitations —so look out!
