Mr Henry Ruffer, director of the Royal Insurance Company, left £76,989. He forbade the sale of his riding and carriage horses, and directed that a sum be set aside for at least 21 years to enable them to be maintained on a farm, with two good feeds of corn daily and ample grazing. Their teeth- are to be examined twice yearly. A stout lady entered the smoker of an Auckland tram the other evening. As it happened there was- only one passenger when she got’in, a working man in the full enjoyment of his pipe. Shud'dering with disgust, the lady remarked : “My good -man, smoking always makes me feel ill.” “Do it now, Mum,” replied the worker, puffing away : “then you take my tip and knock it orf.” The conductor laughed. But really the smell of some of those American tobaccos would make anyone “feel ill.” Thq excess of nicotine they always contain is bad for the smoker, too. Affects heart and nerves. The safest tobaccos are our own N.Z.-grown. They contain so little nicotipe that they may be smoked pipeful after pipeful, and they won’t let you down. Full of fragrance and flavour, too. Delicious. They owe t'heir fine quality largely to the fact that they are toasted in the course of manufacture. A novel idea I Ask for Riverhead Gold, mild ; Toasted Navy Cut (Bulldog), medium ; or Cut Plug No. 10 (Bullshead), a grand, full-flavoured kind.*
