Ve removed the prejudice against cigarettes V)hcn vje removed harmful corrosive ACRIDS (pungent irri tants) from the tobaccos. "ZEARS ago, when cigarettes were made without tho aid of X modern science, there originated that ancient prejudice against all cigarettes. That criticism is no longer justified. LUCKY STRIKE, the finest cigarette you ever smoked, made of the choicest tobacco, properly aged and skillfully blended "It's Toasted." ' 'TOASTING," tho most modern step in cigarette mnnufneturo, removes from LUCKY STRIKE harmful irritants which are pres ent in cigarettes manufactured in the old-fashioned way. Everyone knows that heat purifies, and so "TOASTING" LUCKY STRIKE'S exfra secret process removes harmful cor rosive ACRIDS (pungent irritants) from LUCKIES which in tho old-fashioned manufacture of cigarettes cause throat irritation and coughing. Thus "TOASTING" has destroyed that ancient preju dice against cigarette smoking by men and by women. V'J. iff" Vis b H2 Throat irritation TUfT. IN-".'!. t.u.
