“Most men that I know,” declared Professor Murphy in an address at I the Farmers’ Institute at Wellington on “Public Expenditure,” “can tell you all the records relating to Rugby football or horse racing, but if you ask them anything about public debt of the Dominion they know nothing about it, and do not want to hear any thjng about it. If you ask them what Sir Joseph Ward said at Invercargill or what Mr Coates said at Auckland, you find that' they do not very much care what either said.”, <Laughter.) The other day a Wellington man fell asleep on his verandah while reading the paper. Unfortunately his pipe was in his mouth at the time and he got badly burned. Moral: “Don’t go to sleep while smoking.” And there’s another “Don’t” for smokers : “Don’t smoke tobacco heavily charged with nicotine” (as most of the imported tobaccos are), “unless you are looking for trouble.” Come to think of it, why should you smoke poisonous stuff like that when you can buy, at any tobacconist’s, the beautiful tobacco grown and manufactured in the Dominion by the National Tobacco Co., Ltd. (pioneers of the tobacco industry in New Zealand). This tobacco is toasted—no other is—and is therefore practically free from nicotine. You can smoke it from sunrise to sunset, and it won’t hurt you. You can’t say that of any other tobacco on the market. Ask any tobacconist for Riverhead Gold (mild), Cavendish or Navy Cut (medium), or Cut Plug No. 10 (full-flavoured). There’s a brand for every smoker.*
