The amount' of tobacco consumed by different smokers varies considerably. Some „will use‘a couple of ounces a day, while others are satisfied with lees. The moderate smoker averages, perhaps three ounces a week. Indulged in with discretion, tobacco is admittedly rather beneficial than otherwise. It is chiefly a question of nicotine. The habitual use of tobacco heavily charged with nicotine may result in nerve and heart trouble or weakening of the eye-sight. As a matter of fact, practically all imported tobaccor contain an excess of nicotine. In that connection it may interest the reader to learn that the purest tobaccos produced are grown in New Zealand. They contain comparatively such a small percentage of nicotine that, they may be indulged in ad. lib. with safety. A peculiarity of their manufacture, by the way, is that they are all toasted. Hence their fine flavour. They are adapted to all tastes. Riverhead Gold is mild. Navy Cut (Bulldog) medium, and Cut Plug No. 10 (Bull’s Head) full. Yon can. buy them at any tobacconists.*
