The late Tex Ridklard, the famous American light promoter, loved his pipe, but studiously avoided tobaccos containing much nicotine. How was that? It is this way —men engaged in hard manual work in the open air—such as bushmen or navvies—can smoke almost anything with impunity. But the brain-worker must select his tobacco wth judgment and steer clear of brands reh hi nicotine (as the imported brands are) if he would escape paying the penalty of shattered nerves or weakened heart. Our Now Zealand tobaccos are unequalled foivpurity. Containing a mere trace of nicotine they may Ibe indulged in freely with absolute safety. And sweet, cool, and fragrant they seem to have an irresistible appeal for smokers. (Their line qualities is largely owing to the leaf being toasted —something new in tobacco manufacture. Favourite brands are: Gold” ( a mild, aromatic).; “Cavendish” (touch appreciated iby connoisseurs, medium flavour) ; “Navy Cut” (a delightful blend); and' “Cut Plug No. 10” a rich, dark, full-flavoured tobacco).
