( ‘Of all the plants that grow,” write* Professor Thorold Rogers in “Science Notes,” the tobacco plant ha s proba-Wy (been the source, of more happiness than any other. To quote Kingsley “t.here’s no herb /ike it und e r .the canopy of heaven.” Sometimes it proves highly injurious, it is true. When it does there’s a reason for it. .Smokers are notoriously careless. A man gets used to a certain brand and continues to smoke i.t by the mer f , force 0 f habit. If it is .pure it won’t harm him. If jt is overloaded with the deadly poison known as nicotine it may kill him sooner or later. The difficulty is to ensure its purity. They have solved this prob, lem in New Zealand, I understand. The tobacco produced :in that favoured land is toasted. That effectually rids it of most of its nicotine, leaving it, quite, harmless. A wonderful country.” ( The professor refers to the foiir brands' so popular with New. Zealanders : Cut Plug .No. 10 (BuHshead), Cavendish, 1 iNavy Cut No. 3 (Bulldog) and Diverhead Gold—th e only toasted tobaccos. — Advt t
