BRIDGE LAWSUIT. CALL CAUSES ASSAULT. LONDON, December Tu. “Anyone who calls ‘two clubs,’ when holding only King. ' Queen, and two smaller cards of a suit, ought to he assaulted,” declared counsel during a bridge lawsuit. James Boggan criticised the temerity of his partner, William Darrell, in so calling whereupon Darrell smacked his face, and a struggle followed. Counsel persuaded the men to shako hands and withdraw both summons and counter-summons for assault.
“Just fancy!”—ns the Indies say. In' 1850 the Eugnsh railway companies provided one smoking-car on each long /nilnoy train. That wouldn’t be much use nowadays when everybody smokes. It's a sociable habit, and f has cemented •many friendships. There is a freemasonry of the pipe. And. given the right tobacco, there's no more harm in smoking than there is in eating your dinner. But it is to be deeply iwg.rated, therefore, that so many tobaccos are foul with nicotine (deadly in its effects). Happily our New Zealand brands are not •like i.hat. Ihe special process to which they are subjected when manufactured successfully elin inates the nicotine. 1 hey owe their delicious flavour and K.compurable bouquet' to the same process—the toasting of the leaf. When buying smokers will do well to remember that, there are only four brands : Riverhead Gold, Navy Cut No. 3, Cavendish and Cut ’ Plug' No. 10. They vary in strength from a mild aromatic to rich full-flavoured sort. There is no difference in the quality—it is matchless.—Advt.
