Scene: Smoker of city tramcar. Stern-faced anti-tobaccoite, addressing stranger opposite, puffing a huge pipe with evident enjoyment. “ Do you know, my friend, there’s enough poison in that pipe of yours to kill, a field mouse or 37 blue-botttle flies ?” The smoker : “That, so ?” Well if ever I see a field mouse Smoking a pipe I’ll tell the cat.” Joking apart, there’s a lot of non3ei:'g talked and writtten about smoking. So long as the tobacco is pure and as free from nicotine aS pose'" it can’t do much harm. But P the rub. Those imported tobaccos just reek with nicotine. That’s why their habitual use is so injurious. Our own New Zealand tobaccos, on the other hand, are almost fre® from nicotine, so that, you can indulge in them till your heart’s content with perfect safely. Also owing to the toasting of the leaf their flavour is simply delicious and their fragrance delightful. Purer or choicer brands money cannot buy. Ask for “ Riverhead Gold ” mild, “Navy Cut” (Bulldog) medium, or “Cut Plug” No. 10 Bullhead full.*
