Sherlock Holmes, the famous detective of fiction smoked strong Idack shag tobacco and derived inspiration from it when puzzling over some problem of more than ordinary complexity. Shag is too full-flavoured for many smokers. It 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 affect the consumer injuriously. Unfortunately practically all imported tobaccos are heavily charged with nicotine. And in that respect they differ essentially from our New Zealand grown tobaccos, the comparatively small amount of nicotine which constitutes one of their chief recommendations. Also —and this is ■ important —they are toasted, and toasting brings ont the flavour of the leaf in a most remarkable way. There are sev*al brands of this popular tobacco. Riverhead Gold mild, Navy 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. Caversham Mixture is the latest addition. 18.
