At Nelson the other day a schoolteacher was taking a junior class in mental arithmetic. Addressing the top boy be said: “Now, supposing your father had three plugs of tobacco and gave you one plug and seven-eights oi another plug—how much would he have left?” “Please sir,” replied the t/p boy, ‘father doesn't smoke.” The teacher roared with laughter. And apropos of tobacco, what do you think of ou r New Zealand toasted brands with their rare bouquet and fascinating flavour? Those are points, but fi„, r-hief merit rf t’J- tobacco is that it is toasted, which process absorb 1 ? most of the nicotine in it. and renders it perfectly harmless. Abu cannot smoke more than a pipe or two (a* a time) of the imported tobaccos with any comfort, owing to the quantity of nicotine they contain. But you can smoke any amount of toasted New Zealand not only with keen en : oymerit but with absolute safety. There are nnlv four brands manufactured ■ Riverhead Gold, Navy Cut No. 3, Cavendish, and Cut Plug No. 10.
