In a recent Adelaide breach of promise case, it transpired that the engagement was broken off by the lady because her intended (a bitter foe of the weed) objected to her smoking. She told him laughingly that when a man doesn’t smoke it was usually because he couldn’t! It was then that he lost his temper, and decided to adopt the rather unusual course of sueing her for breach. An unsympathetic jury awarded him nominal damages. But the girl was right. Many men have tried to smoke and failed. They overlooked the fact that the best tobacco for the novice to start with is a very mild aromatic, such as Riverhead Gold or Desert Gold, two of our five famous New Zealand toasted brands. The toasting practically eliminates the nicotine so that even a beginner can enjoy a smoke! The other three brands are Navy Cut No. 3, Pocket Edition and Cut Plug No. 10. All five tobaccos are quite harmless. They vary in strength from very mild to “full.” All are renowned for flavour and bouquet.
