How long does it take to smoke a ton of tobacco? It has taken an old Canterbury resident — an inveterate lover of the weed — just 73 years. He commenced to smoke when he was 13 years old, is now 86, and is still smoking! He was a cabin-boy when he learned to smoke, and for tliree-quarters of a century has found comfort and solace in his pipe. Anti-to-baccoites declare smoking shortens life. But there is reason to believe (as in this case) that it often prolongs it. Good and pure tobacco, containing but little nicotine undoubtedly benefits the health because it lessens nervous strain and banishes the "blues." New Zealanders are fortunately in that respect. Our Dominion tobacco is so pure that many doctors smoke it habitually and recommend it to their patients. It is roasted, and the "bite" taken clean out of it. A more delightful tobacco or a less harmful one the world does not produce. The four brands are: — Riverhead Gold, Navy Cut No. 3, Cavendish, and Cut Plug No. 10,-
