Soft Drinks T ’S just as natural for a man to sing the praises of the Real I Tobacco Chew as it is to look at a beauti ful woman. “ Right-Cut” is made from the finest mellow, rich leaf tobacco— seasoned and sweetened just enough. \ N e w cut, short shred, so that you can get all the good of it. Take a very xmtll chew—lees then one-querter the old xize. It will be more satisfying than a mouthful ol ordinary tobacco. Just nibble on it until you find the strength chew that suits you. Tuck it eweyt Then let it rest. See bow easily end evenly the reel tobacco taste comes, how it satisfies without grinding, how much less you have to spit, bo— few chews you take to be tobacco satisfied. That's why it is The Real TeUcn Chew. That’ s why it costs less in the end. ). <i. r!t::0EKSHJTT, Proprietor, START to nr. m V y . tto u K now a THINtJ \ » o Shoe Store, Stayton Tobacco Coupons r, [Co By W I L L I A M ( H A N D L E R ■liui Edwards waa )onng and frisky Edward Olcott w ii * fonvale*ceut. unit He waa rid thu morning was a mnru'l of aunahlue. and full o f OM Kick Tlieru la a delicious feeling about Unit ing uu a suburban train one day on convaleacanre that 1 fancy la explain U.« way to tbe city when an old gen able from the contraat between suf tleman o f eminently respectable sp- fering and the relief from Buffering l> -trance came Into the car and took a [ .. mt**’ .*/ ' a m 4M It avcuied to Olcott that he waa never mat Is-slde him Jliu was reading In ?%%• « • c* *’■ j morning Journal un account of a ao well In hla life, and yet It would prizefight The gentleman took from have been well nigh lmpoeslble for him III« (pocket a copy of the Missionary to get out o f the Invalid chair In which Intelligencer, opened It and began to he had been wheeled to the glaaa In (pern«e It closed porch o f tl>o hospital.
