A petition in bankruptcy has been filed at New Plymouth by Hector E. Gray, who until about two years ago was prominent in the racing world as a successful jockey. Choosing a birthday present for. a man is not as simple as. shelling peas. You may so easily give him something he has no use for. Tons of money are wasted on presents that are received with perfunctory smiles and thanks but are not valued. Tastes differ widely, but there is one taste common to 05 men out of every hundred —the taste of tobacco. If you want to give a present that will appeal to nearly every man, give him something to smoke, preferably a bit of good “cut up,” and tlie best cut-up tobacco is our own New Zealand grown. This ’baccy is the purest of any because (unlike tlie imported) it contains only a minimum quantity cif nicotine. Consequently it can be smoked all day long “and then some" with enjoyment and without injury to health. So a really acceptable (and inexpensive) birthday gift is. say, pound (or a couple of pounds) of N.Z. tobacco. It is made in various strengths. Riverhead Gold is mild, Navy Cut (Bulldog) is medium, and Cut Plug No. 10 (Bullshead) is fullflavoured.*
