The curious habit so common in America of popping an unlighted cigar in tho mouth and chewing an inch or two of it to pulp, is not popular with us, although the chewing of black plug tobacco is common cough amongst sailors everywhere. However, with tho rank and iile of Englishmen, ‘‘Mho pipe's the thing,” and a source of enjoyment, daily, to millions. But discrimination should be exercised in tho choice of tobacco. Brands, full of nicolino (as tho American tobaccos usually arc), ought to be cut out, beeausu nicotine is the source of all the mischief when lobaeco proves injurious. Our New Zealand grown tobaccos are about the purest going and contain only a trilling percentage ol nicotine—a negligible quantity. That is why you can go on smoking them all the time with the almost safety. They won’t do you any harm. And they are delightfully fragrant. You can get them of any strength. Ask for “Biverhead Gold,” mild ; ‘'Navy Cut” (Bulldog), medium ; or ‘‘Cut Plug No. 10” (Bulkhead), full strength.
