They were swapping- "mean man" stories aboard the Rotorua express the other day. Presently the man in the corner said: "I was travellingr from Lyttelton to Wellington a while ago. In the smokeroom after dinner a well-dressed stranger asked me for a "fill." I handed him my brand new pouch. Later, feeling inclined for a whiff myself, I ventured to remind this chap that he had not returned my pouch. I-le had the nerve to tell me he had given it back 'long ago.' A barefaced lie, of course. But I couldn't prove it. The pouch was full of New /ealand toasted tobacco. I smoke nothing else. There's no tobacco like Cut Plug No. 10. And as I couldn't get any on the boat, I had perforce to wait for my next smoke till I got ashore. Doesn't always pay to he too obliging, does it?" ' The tobacco mentioned by this passenger is one of the four famous toasted brands the other three being Riverhead Gold, Cavendish, and Navy Cut No. 3.
