The delicious fruity flavor of a chew of Spear Head is a revelation to the man who has never chewed or who has been chewing near-good tobacco. For chewing is the one way to get all the wholesome, healthful, appetizing flavor of the tobacco leaf—providing you chew a high-grade plug like Spear Head. No other tobacco can compare with Spear Head ill the wholesome satisfac tion it gives. You get more savory sweetness in a chew of Spear Head than in a whole plug of ordinary tobacco. And you get it in its purest form— for Spear Head is made amid the most wholesome surroundings, in a great, new factory that’s kept absolutely clean and sanitary. Try this rich, mellow, satisfying, pure chew. Such a chew cannot be obtained in any other tobacco than Spear Head. In 10c cuts, wrapped in wax paper.
