When an Auckland tobacconist was asked the other day by a tourist for a wooden , pipe of real Maori workmanship, he had to admit he hadn’t got one. These pipes, with elaborately carved . bowls representing a Maori’s head with pawa-shell eyes. and lolling tongue, were common enough at one time, but the genuine article is seldom met with nowadays, although there are plenty of imitations about—probably made in Birmingham. But if there are few of the real Maori-made pipes to be had, there’s plenty of genuine New Zealand tobacco available. Every tobacconist stocks the five famous blends, Cut Plug No. 10 (Bullshead), Navy Cut No. 3 (Bulldog), Cavendish, Riverhead Gold and Desert Gold) which owe their immense popularity partly to the quality of the leaf, which, grown in specially selected localities, is of the very choicest, and partly to the manufacturer’s exclusive toasting process, which eliminates the nicotine in them so considerably and thus helps to render them not only the most fragrant and delicious of all tobaccos, but the most harmless. But beware of imitations. 728
