YOU know, all tobacco users
know that men want a real

Every where men are saying
to their friends that the Real Tobacco
Chew is the goods.
A little chew of pure, rich, mellow tobacco seasoned

grinding and spitting. '

Take less than one-quarter the old size chew. It "
will be more satisfying than a mouthful of ordinary
tobacco. Just take r nibble of it until you find tha
strength chew that suits you, then see how easily and
evenly the real tobacco taste comes, how it estisfiei,
how much less you hsvo to spit, how few chews you
take to be tobacco satisfied. That's why it is Tht
