Robert Louis Stevenson once declared, according to one of his biographers : "No woman should marry a man who doesn’t smoke,” and Stevenson, it must be admitted, knew human nature. Another famous man of letters, Bulwer-Lytton, wrote (see his novel. "What will he do with it?’) : "He who doth not smoke hath either known no greater grief, or refuseth himself the softest consolation next to that which comes from heaven.” As to the harmfulness of the habit, much —very much—depends upon the tobacco. Brands heavily charged with nicotine are best avoided. In that respect and in other our own New Zealand grown tobaccos hold pride of place, because they contain comparatively little nicotine and may therefore be indulged in ad. lib. without affecting nerves or heart. Doubtless that is why they are finding favour with so many smokers. They are on sale everywhere, and are adapted to all tastes. Riverhead Gold is mild aroamtic • Toasted Navy Cut (Bulldog), a delightful medium ; and Cut Plug No. 10‘ (Bull’s Head label), a fine full-flavoured tobacco.*

DON’T WASTE TIME. It’s a waste of time to experiment with liniments and plasters when you have a dull, throbbing backache or sharp, stabbing twinges. Get after the cause! Help the kidneys with Doan’s Backachei Kidney Pills. Read this: Mrs W. Payne, Mackay Street, Thames, sayis: "I suffered terribly from backache for some time, and from other symptoms present I knew my kidneys were at fault. The pains in my back were sharp and shooting, and would seize me quite suddenly. If I stooped the agony was almost unbearable. The kidney secretions were thick and cloudy with a red sediment, and my ankles and legs swelled a good deal. Hearing of a cure by Doan’s Backache Kidney Pills, I decided to try them, and am glad I did, for the first bottle gave me relief, and a thorough course cured me completely. I am very grateful to Doan’s Backache Kidney Pills for my cure, and trust other sufferers will benefit by my experience.” Ten yeans later Mrs Payne said; “I have had no reason to alter my good opinion of Doan’s Backache Kidney Pills. They still keep me free from kidney trouble, and I am never tired of telling people about their curative powers.”
