I RliNIEMnnR now how my friends used
to tell mc about Prince Albert; how they
vould make what sounded like the most
extravagant claims for it; and how I
would say "Uh-huh," and proceed to fill
my pipe from the same old package. I
jusi didn't know!
But I found out. One day, the store
where I buy my tobacco didn't have my
old brand. I hcarcTTinothcr customer
standing beside nie say "Prince Albert"
to the man behind the counter. All that
I had heard about Prince Albert came
back to mc in a flash.
I bought a tin. ''Took a chance," as
I thought. As I opened it, I was met by
the most inviting fragrance I had ever
known. I thought of the woods after a
gentle rain. It made my mouth water
for a taste of such tobacco in my pipe.
I tamped-in a load and lighted up.
What a taste! Cool and sweet and
mild, with just enough body to make
every puff a smoke-experience. I tried
another load and another. I was "sold."
P. A. was my brand from then on. My
only regret is that I didn't make the
discovery sooner. Good old P. A.!
