Dr. Lankester, ’ formerly a wellknown London coroner, once wrote about tobacco • “I dare not, as a physiologist, tel 1 you there exists any proof of its injurious influence when used in moderation. Bui the first symptoms of giddiness, sickness, palpitation, weakness, or uneasiness while smoking should induce you to lay it aside. Neglect those warnings and you may be sorry.” The unpleasant symptoms referred to by the doctor often follow the use of foreign tobaccos, but never the use of the tobaccos grown and manufactured by the National Tobacco Co., Ltd (pioneers of the N.Z. tobacco industry). It’s simply a question of nicotine. Most foreign brands are full of it, The tobaccos referred to contain hardly any. Also they are toasted. This process develops flavour and aroma, and prevents “bite.” There are various brands (all excellent), special favourites being : Riverhead gold, (mild and delicious). Cavendish (medium —the sportsman’s smoke), Navy Cut No. 3 (Bulldog—medium), and Cut Plug No. 10 (Bullshead—full strength). Safe smoking because they are toasted.*
