"Chesterfields are jfe pure as the water you drink," a noted scientist writes. There's no way to make a purer cigarette. Starting with tobaccos . . . the ripest, finest, purest leaf that grows is selected for Chesterfields. Mild to start with . . . Cross-Blending makes it milder still. Then it's wrapped in paper that is so. pure it burns without any taste or odor. The phrase "Scientifically Purer " is entirely justified. By our use of a highly scientific process which was worked out by Dr. Paul Gross, the Head Chemist of our Research Department, Chesterfield reaches a 6tate of purity unmatched, to our knowledge, by any other cigarette. In addition,' scientists check every in gredient, every method. Even the factory air is washed, and changed every 4 minutes. More purity! Notice, too, the clean, white, attractive package . . . moisture-proof. Chesterfields come to you as good and as pure as they're made. Good . . . they've got to be good!
