An English iourisl while “doing" the Waikato recently was surprised and disgusted to notice so many Maori women enjoying their pipes. On his return to Auckland he mentioned the matter to an old colonist, remarking that is was a sure sign of the degeneracy of the Maori race when their women smoked pipes. Said the New Zealander: “Well, if that is so, the Irish women of the working class must have been degenerating for a good while, because I remember seeing them smoking clays in Dublin when I was a boy.” The tourist said no more. There is nothing wrong with pipe smoking for man or woman so long as the right tobacco is list'd. Choose a brand as free from nicotine as you can. That’s all. Our New Zea-land-grown t°haccos contain onlv a trifling percentage of nicotine, and you can’t beat them for flavour and aroma. You can smoke them for hours and they won’t do yon any harm. Ask for “Riverhead Gold,” mild; “Navy Cut” (Bulldog), medium; or “Cut Plug No. 10” (Bullhead), full strength. *
