"Valletta, Malta, exhibit in a tastefully arranged case, samples of their famous 'Kaisar- 1-Hind' Cigarettes, and inasmuch as a revolution in the habit of smoking is now sciting in, this exhibit should prove attractive to all lovers of the 'fragrant weed. Instead of strong Tobacco, "often used in too strong pipes and full flavoured Cigars, the mild. Cigarette is rapidly coming into vogue.
