Bishop Taylor-Smith, recently through the Dominion, asked .when he was going to smoke, replied, “When I am cremated.” No friend of the weed evidently ? Well, that’s' hia loss. Tobacco is often reviled by those who don’t like it, but so long as the quality is good, and it doesn’t contain an excess of nicotine, its use may be considered rather beneficial than otherwise. “Smoker’s throat,” “smoker’s heart,” and smoker’s nervetroubles all arise from too much nicotine in the tobacco. The purest tobaccos are grown right here in New Zealand. They contain a very small proportion of nicotine, and so may be smoked, pipeful after pipeful, with impunity. As to quality, .there is nothing to beat them for flavour and aroma. That is largely owing to tjhe fact that the leaf is toasted (quite a new idea) in the course of manufacture. These excellent brands are in various strengths' (to suit all. smokers). Ask your tobacconist for Riverhead Gold, mild ; Navy Cut (Bulldog), medium; or Cut Plug No. 10 (Bullshead), full. They are all toasted.*
