Manawatu Herald TUESDAY, OCTOBER 30, 1928. LOCAL AND GENERAL.

It is reported that a company is being' formed in Shannon for the (purpose of manufacturing' sacks, rope, and other materials from . hemp. A Press telegram from Wellington states that the Chief Justice, Sir Charles Skerrett, has made such satisfactory recovery that he was able to leave the private hospital for his home at Lowry Bay on Saturday. A period of rest and quiet is prescribed by his medical advisers. As requested by members of the Rongolea school committee in a deputation to him on Friday evening. Mr. J. Link] a ter, M.P., has placed before the Health Department, a proposal for the erection of a dental clinic at Rongotea. Mr. Linklater told the deputation that he would do everything possible to further the suggestion and a reply is expected from the department within the course of a few days. As a chap grows older many things that formerly gave him pleasure lose their appeal. But there’s ’one thing he rarely tires of —his pipe. In fact the older a man grows, the more necessary his pipe seems to become to him. Of course the enemies of the weed will laugh. But what does the man who does not (or cannot) smoke know of Hu joys of smoking. Tobacco is often roundly abused. Yet it’s harmless enough so long as it’s not heavily charged with nicotine as most ol the imported brands are. Is there any really pure tobacco on the market. 1 ? Yes; our own New Zealand tobaccos are remarkable for their purity. And they contain so little nicotine that they may he smoked freely without fear of consequences. Another strong point in their favour is that the leaf is toasted. Hence their fascinating flavour and delightful bouquet. Where are they to he had. Why, at any tobacconist’s. Ask for “Riverlicad Gold” mild, “Navy Cut” (Bulldog), medium, or'“Cut Plug No. 10” (Bullshead) full strength.
