A smartly attiied girl, after finishing lunch at a fashionable Sydney restaurant, without- rising from her table lit a cigarette. Seated opposite was an elderly grey-haired lady who looked quite shocked. .lust then, the girl’s escort was called to the 'phone, and the old lady addressing the young one, said: “My dear, what would your Mother say if she could see you smoking?” The girl laughed. “Oh,” she replied, “Mother wouldn’t miiul. Smokes any amount herself.” The. old lady sighed. Perhaps she was thinking of the unbridgable gap ’twixt Victorian days and 1931. But ready smoking is quite alright for either sex, provided the tobacco is above reproach. Alas! it so often isn’t. Take thAmerican tobaccos and what do you find? Practically, all of them overloaded with nicotine. Bad for the health? Of course! 1 Destructive. Now there’s hardly any nicotine in our N.Z.
