Funny ideas non-smokers sometimes entertain about tobacco! When Auckland Education Board prohibited smoking by teachers within school precincts somebody (evidently a never-touch-it) wrote to" an Auckland paper to suggest that if the instructors of youth, deprived of their smoke between classes or during lunch hour would read a nice improving book, they’d get far more satisfaction out of it than out of cigarettes. Obviously the writer has never spent hours in a school-room teaching the young idea how to school, or he’d know that books, however interesting, make a poor substitute for baccy when the brain is weary and worn. At such times a whiff is a boon and a blessing inestimable, and will soothe and calm as nothing else can or does. Tobacco? Well, there’s nothing like genuine “toasted” if you want the best results, it’s so pure, fragrant, cool and comforting—two brands for cigarette smokers, Riverhead Gold and Desert Gold—three for tlie pipe, Cut Plug No. 10 (Bullslic.nl), Navy Cut No. 3 (Bulldog) and Cavendish. All are in practically universal use. 740
