There is a good story told of an inveterate smoker who, being ordered by his doctor to limit himself (temporarily) to one pipe a day, promptly invested in one of those huge German pipes with long stems and bowls holding about half an ounce. Well, it is to be hoped that he did not do himself any harm. If he had filled up with Naw Zeaand-grown ’baccy he’d have been all right. This excellent tobacco (unlike the imported brands) contains very little nicotine, and consequently it may be smoked for hours at a time without causing heart or nerve trouble. Its delicious flavour and delightful aroma ate chiefly due to the fa,ct that the leaf is toasted, and toasting makes all the difference in the world. If you doubt it buy an ounce or two and try it out for yourself. Depend upon it, you’ll want “more,” like Oliver Twist. It is made in various strengths. Riverhead Gold is mild, Navy Cut is medium, and so is Cavendish, while cut Plug No. 10. is full-flavoured.*
