Why is smoking so often attended with results that cause medical men to order patients to either abandon the habit or greatly modify it ? It is simply because the percentage of nicotine in most imported tobaccos is so high ; and it is the nicotine in excess that renders smoking injurious. But our N.Z.-grown tobaccos contain so small a percentage of nicotine that it is practically negligible. Besides, they are all toasted, and toasting eliminates the deleterious properties and develops flavour and aroma. These brands appeal to all who study their health and appreciate really pure tobacco. They are exclusively manufactured by the National Tobacco Co., Ltd. (pioneers of the N.Z. tobacco industry). If you like a full-flavoured sort, try Cut Plug No. 10 (Bull’s Head label), or the rather milder Navy Cut (a very choice blend—Bulldog label). -Then there is the famous Cavendish Mixture (medium) and the popular Riverhead Gold (mild and mellow). Any of these brands may be smoked with impunity, and cost twenty-five per cent, less than the foreign goods.*
