"When tobacco has a very pronounced ‘bite’ ” remarked the coroner at a Chicago inquest tor “autopsy,’’ .as the Americans say), "it is obvious that it contains too much nicotine, and the habitual use of such tobacco is certainly unwiee. It appears that in this c"s e deceased (a house decorator, who died ■while smoking his pipe), was a heavy smoker, sometimes using as much as tow ounces, of tobacco a day. This tobacco, a sample, of which I have analysed, was unusually strong. Its nicotine content wa<s three times a<j great a s it should have been. It gradually affected the heart, and its cumulative effect was undoubtedly the cause of death.” Happily Hew Zealander s run no ,guch risk; ou r beautiful Hew Zealand tobacco is toasted, and this process (necessitating the employment of elaborate machinery and shilled labour) safeguards the smoker, because it draws out the poisonous nicotine besides imparting to the tobacco its famous flavour and unequalled fragrance. Thera are four toasted brands: Itiverhead Co’d, Hary Cut No. 3 (Bulldog), Cavendish, and Cut Plug Ho. 10 (Bullshead). They are unique.
