“On the voyage to New Zealand, writes Harold Roeve in “Jottings,’ a London Weekly, “when a fellow-passen-ger told me the New Zealand tobacco was toasted I thought he was pulling my leg. But he was right. The X.Z. tobacco IS toasted—and a wonder till difference it makes! This same tobacco is the finest I ever smoked. Its sweet and mellow, with a delicious flavour and ft smells as good a R it tastes. Toasting does that—ay, and more, because it extracts the nicotine from the leaf, so that you can smoke any amount of it without fear ol consequences. There are »o consequencesl don t know any other tobacco of which that can be said. Most of the American brands arc rather rank with nicotine, and quite unsafe to ,smoke constantly. As long as I live in .\e\v Zealand I smoked toasted tobacco. It is unique. Thorn arc four brands of this tobacco : Riverhead Gold, Navy Out No. 3. 0 iveiidish and Out Plug No. 10, these are tile only toasted tobaccos. Ol course there are imitations!— •—dvt.
