With a cry of joy, and “.Daddy!” a little boy of five ran forward to greet his father, an army officer, on. his arrival home in Saragossa, Spain.' The boy leaped into his father’s arms and hugged, him tightly. . But the child ’s embrace pressed on a. revolver in the officer ’s, pocket. The revolver went off and the boy fell dead. Round the Horn in a, windjammer! Not often can anyone make such a voyage nowadays, but Mr Jack Thode (a popular Auckland yachtsman) shipped aboard the old “Grace Harwar” at Auckland last May, and had a memoraJblo trip. What with bad weather, mountainous seas, hard work and real peril tho voyage was full of thrill. Falmouth was reached .1.34 days out. When nearing tho English coast Mr. Thode’s birthday eventuated and he writes: “For a birthday treat I smoked tho last of my New Zealand tobacco.” Tho last? New Zealand smokers will sympathise! Mr Thode doesn’t mention the brand he favoured, but lit was probably Cut Plug No. 10 (Bulkhead), —a rich, full-flavoured baccy and an immense favourite with sea-going folk. It is one of tho four noted N.Z. toasted tobaccos, tho others being Navy Cut No. 3 (Bulldog), Cavendish, and Riverhead Gold. They are all of extraordinarily fine quality—and quite harmless, because they are toasted so contain hardly any nicotine. They are recognised as about .the purest tobaccos extant.
