“Make no error,” said the tobacconist to a cobber, “rolling your own lias made a big difference! Parties that used to smoke packet cigarettes mostly turn up their noses at them now! They find the smokes they make themselves are not only better but a lot cheaper than ready-mades. Take, me. I used to sell any quantity of packet goods; now I.sell far fewer packets but a heap more cigar-ette-tobacco specially Riverhead Gold and Desert Gold —the two cigarette brands chiefly wanted. And look at the saving! Why, you can roll ten full-size cigarettes of either Riverhead Gold or Desert Gold for 4d. or less! And, mind you, being newly rolled, they’re always fresh and moist, while the ready-mades are often dry and stale. Yes; both these brands are toasted, and there are three toasted brands for the pipe—Cut Plug No. 10 (Bullshead), Cavendish, and Navy Cut No. 3 (Bulldog). It’s toasting that makes these brands so pure; that’s why they’re so harmless. Imitations? Oh, yes! but they are fizzling out! No demand!”
