Sherlock Holmes, the famous detective of lii-iion, smoked strong black shag tobacco and derived inspiration from ii when puzzling over some problem of more tlmn ordinary complexity. Shag is tool'll! 1-lhivoured for many smokers. l( contains a lot of Nicotine, and excess of nicotine, is a bad thing. The habitual use of such tobacco is bound sooner or later to ailed the consumer injuriously. I lifortunatclv practically all imported tobaccos are heavily charged with nicotine. And in that respect they differ essentially from our New /('aland grown tobaccos, the comparatively' sinail amount of nicotine which constitutes one ot their chief recommendations. Also nnd this is important —they are all toasted, and toasting brings out the flavour of the leaf in a most remarkable way. There are several brands ot this popular tobacco. Rivevhead Hold mild, Navy Cut. Cut (Bulldog label) medium and Cut Plug No. 10 (Bull’s Head) full strength. Each of them has its merits. That seasoned smoker, Sherlock Holmes, would doubtlessly prefer the last named. —Advl.
