The best fren'ehipsre all Iiave are tKose that TimS
has ripened. You can't mellow goodness into either
tobacco or fren'ship by forcing it, You must
let Time do the work. We can all SL-l
shake, hands on . this.
Some Real Commonsense
That Every Pipe Smoker
Will Understand
Mother Nature grew the tobacco for
VELVET;
Thaf same Mother Nature motored :tne'
tobacco for VELVET. She did the job
thoroughlythe way she always does.
If there were a better method than Nature's
-pu;n process, we would use it For Nature s
way takes time; and money.
But we know and you know that Nature
ripened fruit is sweeter than the green
picked, heat-ripened kind that time
alonexan give "seasoning" to a new pipe.
Which, then; do you pre
fer tobacco that has
been quick-cured,
hustled through some
artificial method or
VELVET, the
tobacco that has?
been allowed to;
mellow naturally
during two long
years of matur-

ing?
When'tKe lhBorn flavor and'ffagrance of
Kentucky's choicest Burley leaf has been:
matured as only Nature knows how, can
you wonder at the perfect alTround excel?
lence of VELVET?
The facts about VELVET . were laid,
before the International Jury of Award
at the Panama - Pacific International
Exposition. And they gave VELVET
the Grand Prize their highest award
and Jhe highest ever given. a : smoking Jobacco.,
VELVET"is"aged in'wooden' hogsheads'for more
than two years. The evidence of VELVET'S
quality is laid before the National Jury of Pipe
Smokers" in every bag, tin and humidor of
VELVET. Their vote of confidence isjregistered
in the ever increasing demand
for the Smoothest i Smoking
Tobacco.
If you areh't good friends with
your pipe let VELVET be the
peacemaker. If you are, let
VELVET cement your friend-,
ship closer not tomorrow,
but.fodflty.
