The whirligig of Time brings many changes in our social life. Fifty years ago our old friend, “Mr Punch,” in his humorous way, wrote: “The ideal wife is one who allows smoking all over the house.” In that day smoking was tabooed by most wives, and if hubby wanted a whiff he usually had to seek the seclusion of the summerhouse or the coal cellar. But most wives smoke themselves now, and would be simply lost without their cigarettes! Yes, we are living at a faster pace than they did in Victorian days, and the “weed” is more appreciated than ever before —especially if it’s “toasted,” with its beautiful flavour and rare fragranee. There’s no “bite” in “toasted.” Toasting takes it. clean out, and the tobacco is left as pure, sweet, mellow, cool and comforting as it is possible to make it. Once you change over to Cut Plug No. 10 (Bullshead), Navy Cut No. 3 (Bull dog), Cavendish, Riverhead Gold or Desert Gold, you’ll never be content with ordinary tobaccos. “Toasted” makes friends—and keeps them! 714
