A Hamilton man relates how he went to consult a doctor about n sore tongue. “Heavy smoker?” asked the doctor. “I get through three ounces a week/’ replied the .patient, “and would like to smoke more,' because •I’m fond of my pipe, but it makes my tongue worse.” The doctor nodded. “Smoke American stuff, don't you?” he enquired. “Yes,” said the patient. ‘•Knock it off,” directed the doctor, “and .substitute New Zealand tobacco. Your tongue will soon be alright then. ’ The patient did so. Quickly his tongue was ‘Ti 'ht as rain,” to use his own expression. Now he smokes more than evfr! There are four brands of New Zealand tobacco; Riverhead Gold, Navv Out No. o. Cavendish and Out Plug No. 10. They don’t burn the tongue because there is hardly any nicotine in than. They are toasted. That extracts the poison. It also gives them 'their fine flavour and delightful fragrance. They are quite harmless, and may be indulged in to any extent without fear of consequences, pf course there are imitations! Beware.—Advt.
