The spectacle of a smartly-dressed middle-aged lady seated in a firstclass “smoker” of the Auckland-Well-ington Limited the other day, reading a magazine and calmly .puffing away at a small briar pipe, naturally attracted attention. Later the lady laughihgly explained to her neighbour that she preferred a pipe to a cigarette, as “less bother and more satisfying.” Reminded that a pipe required cleaning out frequently, the fair smoker* said her’s gave her very little trouble, because she always smoked National Tobacco Company’s “Navy Cut,” which (like all their tobaccos) was toasted and almost free from nicotine. The very small nicotine content of the above company’s goods has made them famous. These are the only toasted tobaccos. It is worthy of note that the company are the pioneers of the N.Z. tobacco industry. Their most popular* brands are Riverhead Gold, mild ; Navy Cut and Cavendish, medium ,* and Cut Plug No. 10, full-strength. These beautiful tobaccos (now in universal use) are obtainable everywhere.*
