Toasting removes the impurities and Improves the flavor of the finest to bncco. That's why folks sayt 'It's good to smoke l.nckics." Men who pride themselves on keep ing fit discovered this long ago. They know that Ltickles steady their nerves and do not impair their physical con ditionmany prominent athletes have testified to this fact. They discovered, too, that l.uckies don't irritate the throat a fact subscribed to by 20,679 physicians. A reasonable proportion of sugar In the diet is recommended, but the authorities are overwhelming that too many fattening sweets are harmful and that too many such are eaten by the American people.
