GRIMSTONE'S HERB TOBACCO.--THE "SMOKE CON-
TROVERSY" SETTLED.7/ylllCh difference of opinion exists
as to whether smoking is injurious or not. Upon this point
doctors have " disagreed, as they have done upon most
others—but one thing is certain that smoking Grimstone's
, herb tobacco is beneficial rather than the contrary, and most
astonishing cures of asthma, and ether pulmonary diseases,
have resulted from its use. To those will() are troubled with
phlegm i
few whiffs
the throat on.rising in the morning we recom-
mend a of Gm:eaten& s tobacco before breakfast.
To those who are troulilea- wth a hacking cough on laying
down to rest, we say tyre a pipe of Grimstone's after supper,
—and to those wh require a pipe during the hours of
labour or study we recommend Grimstone's as possessing all
the best qualities of Virginia tobacco with none of its dia-
-1 acivantages. The absence of the essential oils precludes the
danger arising from the narcotic weed—whilst the fragrant
herbs and Bowers of which Grimstone's herb tobacco is corn-
posed render it not only a valuable medicine agent, but a
universal favourite with the fair sex, who have settled the
"tobacco controversy" by declaring their admiration of the
fragrance of Grimstone's as being far preferable to the
smell of'" that horrid nasty tobacco."
