Tobacco played its" part in 'connection with the Great Plague of London jv 1A65. Pepys mentions in his famous “Biary” f png plague-stricken houses marked vith a red cross. H, got so frightened later that he states: “ I was forced to buy some roll tobacco to smell and to clean. This took away the apprehension.” He escaped infection. Even jn that day tobacco was valued as a disinfectant.' But it is more efficacious smoked than “chaued.” Of course the purest tobacco is best for disinfecting purposes just as it is for ordinary use. And thf} purest tobacco in the world is our own New Zealand "weed.” Owing to being toasted it is practically without nicotine and famous alike ao a disinfectant ‘and a smoking tobacco. Sweet, pure,' mellow and fragrant, it appeals t 6 all smokers. It is not only cheaper than some brands that could be mentioned but •'infinitely better and’ safer. Four brands only : Riverhead Gold, Navy Out No. 5, Cavendish and Cut Plug No. 10. Don’t accept substitutes. Above are the only toasted tobaccos. — Advt.
It is by the neglect of minor coughs I nncl eolrls that more s.'rious forms of illness are caused, almost without 1 exception by the gradual weakening of 1 vour resistance. Do not suffer with the rest. Get your bottle of Cherimal the double strength couch Balsam from Messrs Gooch and Co’s store . without delay.—Adrto
