That is why Camels are the favorite of the present age. The warmth of golden sunlight or autumn fields gleams in their smoke. Camels are the modern expression of all that is the finest. Camel quality and Camel excel lence are recognized wherever modern smokers gather. Particu lar smokers in this hard-to-please age find the best of Turkish and Domestic tobaccos blended in this famous cigarette. They find a con sistent goodness that never fails, no matter how liberal the smoking. And wherever modern smokers gather, wherever the conversation turns to tobacco, to the world’s best, someone is sure to say: "Speaking of fine tobaccos . . . —Have a Camel!” R. J.
