GLIDE AWAY

She Left Her Field Standing (From "N.Z. Truth's" Auckland Rep.) There is no.t a great deal of Glide Vjkway, but when it comes to hoofing it m sight of the judge she can bilrn the wind. • TT was noised about that Bill Tomkinson had got hold of a good one when he brought her back. from Australia some short time ago, and on her attempts at Auckland there is every foundation for the opinions expressed by shrewd. judges. She occupied second berth on each of the first two days of the meeting when the going was not m favor of anything but thoroughly attuned strong horses. On the final m her first effort she was again second, but mixing it with some of the best m the Premier mile and a-quarter she smoked home m taking style. The speedy Joy Bird carted them along from the word go and half--way up the straight it looked as if the chestnut would prevail. But when Tomkinson said "home" to Glide Away, home . she rolled, and though^ there was only a length between her and' McMillan's chestnut it was a clean-cut victory.. , She will give, them hurry up, in future for it is possible that m her previous races her driver was not inclined to knock her about, but now that her- worth has been apparent to all there should be no occasion for' any nursing policy. . : Catering by Dustins, Ltd., is appreciated by the public. The executives of the various racing clubs and shows who have, entrusted ■ their catering to this reliable firm have been' wise owls. Dustins, Ltd., have set a standard for catering m Taranaki,. Hawkes Bay and Wellington "provinces that cannot >be surpassed.* . 5 Pipe tobacco alone contributed £130,384 to the New Zealand revenue 'during the first quarter of the present year, m the shape of Customs • duties. Wonderful is the popularity of what Charles Kingsley called "the diyinest weed under heaven." Opponents of tobacco may say what they, will, '. but the fact remains — smoking does more good .than harm— provided always that the 'baccy is pure 'arid of ' first-class quality! It's undoubtedly true, however, that brands heavily charged with nicotine are best avoided, and it is.no. less true that the., imported tobaccos are practically all open to that objection. Our own New Zealand varieties ire- the best; Sweet, cool, and frag/rant, they are- comparatively free from nicotine and the fact that the leaf is toasted is the secret of their delightful flavor and fine aroma. They don't bite the tongue; they don't. affect. the heart or nerves. They may be indulged m freely without fear of - consequences. There are several varieties. Ask your tobacconist for "Riverhead Gold" mild, "Navy Cut" <Bulldog) medium, or "Cut Plug No. 10" (BuUshead) full strength. 1 *
