“Pardon me, Sir,” remarked a man aboard an Auckland ferry-boat the ■other day to a iellow-passenger. “but what tobacco are you smoking? It has a 'beautiful bouquet.” “Ne°w Zealand Cut Plug No. 10,” replied the stranger. “Pm a heavy smoker, and like the toasted because it’s so free from nicotine. The toasting cuts out the poison. Can’t smoke more than a pipe or two of the imported. It’s SO full of nicotine. You can smoke a barrel-full of toasted without hurtmg yourself. The toasting leaves it pure, sweet and fragrant. “I reckon,” said the other, greatly interested, “there are more brands than one?” “There are four. All differentstrengths— Piverhead Gold, Navy Cut No. 3, Cavendish and Cut Plug No. 10. Thev are all good, but as an old smoker I prefer a full flavoured sort like the Cut Plug No. 10. Will you try a fill?” The invitation was readily accepted, and before the boat reached North Shore the merits of “New Zealand Toasted” were warmly appreciated by one more, devotee of the weed.—Advt.
