Do you save up your dotties? A writer in a London weekly (a medical man) condemns this practice as "Very ; unwise,” and says the scrapings of a pipe-bowl, “the dregs of a fill,” as he puts it, are quite unfit to be smoked over again, adding: “The smoker’s slogan should be ‘safety first'.” It shouid, but very often it isn’t. Dottlesmoking is doubtless “very unwise,” but is the smoking of tobacco containing a large percentage of nicotine any wiser? Yet such brands are as com- ; mon as house-flies in summer, and i may wreck the nerves of a smoker or attack his heart or throat. The really safe way is to smoke “toasted”; toasting rids this beautiful tobacco of most ot Its nicotine and leaves it pure, sweet and wholesome. It has a fascinating flavour and is the most fragrant and comforting of all tobaccos. The only genuine toasted brands are Cut Plug No. 10 (Bullshead), Navy Cut No. 3 (Bulldog), Cavendish, Riverhead Gold, and Desert Gold. But there are several worthless imitations about. Beware!
