For Hacking Coughs Woods’ Great Peppermint Cure. W. E. Woods Ltd., Lambton Quay, Wellington.

“Coffin nails,” according to a London correspondent, was the engaging name by which cigarettes were known when he was a boy. A lot of water has passed beneath the bridge since those days, and “coffin nails”- must have been manufactured from very inferior tobacco to . have deserved their name. But things have changed. There’s as much difference ’twixt the old-time cigarettes the correspondent writes of, and those made of Riverhead Gold or Desert Gold, as there is between an old-fashioned motor-car and a modern Rolls-Royce. Only the choicest leaf, grown in carefully selected localities, goes to making the two brands named. And it’s precisely the same with the three pipe brands, Cut Plug No. 10 (Bullshead), Navy Cut No. 3 (Bulldog) and Cavendish (the popular sporting mixture). Made and blended by experts in an up-to-date factory, these tobaccos are toasted, which ingenious process not only enhances flavour and aroma, but frees them from excess of nicotine, 'hus safeguarding the smoker. No No fin-;? or purer tobaccos are produced. They challenge comparison with the world’s best.
