"LmcEi'm have helped me win the laurel crown
of my musical career singing in opera.
Stage presence demands a slim, youthful
figure. Rich foods cannot tempt me. I light
a Lucky and stay slender. The toasted flavor
of a Litcfcy soothes the craving'or goodies.
Then, too, a Lwcfcy never irritates my throat.
Even, after smoking many, my voice Is still
clear." ' - - '

The modern common sense way reach for
a Lucky instead of a fattening sweet. Every
one is doing it men keep healthy and fit,
women retain a trim figure. Lucky Strike,
the finest tobaccos, skilfully blended, then
toasted to develop a flavor which is a de
lightful alternative for that craving for fat
tening sweets.
Toasting frees Lucky Strike from impurities.
20,679 physicians recognize this when they
say Luckies are less irritating than other
cigarettes. That's why folks sayt "It's good
to smoke Luckies."
(1 . -j . Authorities attribute the eiUMV
HOk. ; mous j ncrease in Cigarette smok
ing to the improvement in the process of
Cigarette manufacture by the application
of heat. It is true that during 1928, Lucky
Strike Cigarettes showed a greater increase
than all other Cigarettes combined. This
surely confirms the public's confidence in
the superiority of Lucky Strike.
