For a wager two men at Brighton, England recently matched themselves, one against the other, to see which could smoke the most tobacco in a given time. The- contest lasted for hours. The tobacco, was American of medium strength. The wj,liner smoked two and a quarter ounces. He looked as If he had had more than enough when- -he put his pipe down. The loser was going strong when he collapsed. Heart. Fact is, most of these American tobaccos are full of “juice” (Nicotine), and nicotine in excess plays the dickens with heart and nerves. No tobacco is absolutely free from it, but our New Zealand-grown brands contain- so little- that they are practically harmless. They can be smoked freely without causing any trouble. Even the doctors recommend them. Cool, sweet, and fragrant, they appeal to all smokers. Try them. If you like a soothing, mild aromatic, ask for Riverhead Gold; or if you prefer something stronger, get some Navy Cut, medium, or Cut Plug No. 10, full flavoured.*
