The other afternoon a well-dressed dame entered the “smoker of an Auckland tram. The only vacant scat was next to a working man who was puffing clouds of smokei from a foul briar. He chanced to be the only smoker present. The lady glanced with disgust at her neighbour. “My good man,” said she, at last, “do you know that pipe-smoking always makes me ill ?” “Do it, now, mum?’’ queried “the good man”, “then you take my tip and knock it orf!” Everybody laughed—bar the lady. Well, the smoke of some tobaccos would make anybody feel “ill”. Excess of nicotine in the leaf. Bad stuff to smoke. Plays up with heart and nerves. National Tobacco Company’s goods don’t do that. They are all toasted. That destroys the nicotine and renders them harmless. The Company are the pioneers of the tobacco industry in N.Z.. Ask for their “Riverhead Gold” (mild), “Navy Cut” or “Cavendish” (medium), or “Cut Plug No. 10” (full strength). These pure tobaccos are procurable from tobacconists everywhere.*
