At a well-known Wellington Club the other evening, two members, a smoker and a non-smoker, were talking about smoking. The abstainer contended there,;.was no such, thing as a really pure tobacco on the market. “Tell me,” he said, "of an imported brand that is not more or less foul with nicotine. Hence my. objection to. smoking.” “Well,” replied the smoker, “I know of four brands that are practically free from nicotine.” "Maine .them!” cried the other. “Right! here goes ; Riverhead Gold, Cavendish, Navy Cut Mo. 3 and Cut- Plug Mo. CIO.” "Mew Zealand tobaccos, are they not?” queried the non-smoker. “Yes, and very ! fragrant and delicious they are, but their outstanding merit is their comparative freedom from nicotine. They are perfectly harmless. You see they are toasted, and the toasting makes all the difference. It takes the ‘juice’ out of them.” The other 'man looked sceptical. But his i opponent was right. Toasting does make “all the difference,” and is worthy of special note .that the only toasted tobaccos manufactured are those men'tioned above.—Advt.
