At the Christchurch Citizens’ Depot for the relief of the, unemployed the patience of the voluntary workers sometimes, is sorely tried (states the “Press”). On Wednesday the patience of Mrs Herbert, who is in charge of the depot, snapped suddenly. A young man, unmarried, about 23 years of age, was offered a job at Kimberley. Mrs Herbert ascertained for him that the Labour Department would advance him his. railway fare to Darfleld. The young man then wanted his bus fare for the five miles between Darfield and Kimberley, apd when it was suggested that he might walk that distance the young ma.n replied : “I have done enough walking in my time ; I’ll chuck the- job.” This was too much for Mrs Herbert. “I.quickly ordered him out of the depot,” she said to a reporter, “and told him not to come back here for assistance. There is as much difference between raw tobacco and toasted tobacco as there is between a raw potato and savory chips. It is not so much the material, you use as; the way you adopt in preparing it. Take, for instance, our locally maniu'factured tobaccos. They are all toasted, and as a result their latent properties have been brought fully out. Science applied, what, else is it but commonsense. You need not be an expert to understand the wonderful effect of this toasting process; flavour and aroma will tell you ; so- smooth and mellow, but what is equally important, consider their merits from a health point of view,. The object of toasting is to eject an.jr deleterious properties that, may be contained in the leaf and to neutr alise portion of the poisonous nicotine ; hence toasted tobiiceos may be smoLed with impunity ; they will not affe-ct the heart and nerves or the eyesight. Obtainable in three grades." Riverhead (Gold, mild a.nd aromatic; Navy Cut (Bulldog), medium ; and Cut Plug No., 10 (Bullshead), full strength.*
