He forgot the tobacco I A backblocks settler in the Far North, where there are no trains, or coaches, makes monthly trips by dray to the nearest towmship for stores. Last time,he discovered on getting home that he had forgotten the month’s supply of tobacco. There was consternation in the camp ! The men had rather he had forgotten anything than that! Nothing daunted the boss harnessed up again next day and started for the distant township once more for the tobacco. The weed is almost as necessary as food to the men of the outback. So it is to lots of other men. The great thing'is to pick a brand as free from nicotine as possible. Most of the imported brands are full of it. That’s where they differ from our New Zealand-grown tobaccos, which contain so little nicotine that they may be smoked all day, even to excess, without the slightest after effect.s. They are toasted and do not affect the heart or throat. Ask for “Riverhead Gold,” mild ; Navy Cut” (Bulldog), medium; or “Cut Plug No. 10” (Budshead), full strength.*
