“When I’m real hungry for n smoke,” said a speaker at a social gathering the other day, “a cigarette is no earthly good to me. It's like offering a fancy biscuit to a starving man. Even a cigar leaves me cold. A pipe of good honest ‘cut-up’ is what T crave—New Zealand toasted tor preference.” Most veteran smokers are I'ke that. They prefer a well-loaded briar to the best cigar or cigarette. As to the New Zealand toasted tobacco it has this to recommend it: the toasting rids it of most of its nicotine, and leaves it sweet, cool and pure, whereas tb c foreign tobaccos are often rank with nicotiife —a deadly poison, bear in mind. Can stuff like that be good to smoke, day after day, think you f There are only four brands of toasted : I!iverbead Gold, Navy Cut No. 3Cavondish and Cut Plug No. 10. 'I hey are all famous for their delieions fl"vour and fine aroma. And you can smoke them freely oven to excess. They are toasted, and therefore harmless.
