says the Good Judge
A man can get a heap more
satisfaction from a small chew
of this class of tobacco, than
he ever could get from a big
chew of the old kind. .
He finds it costs less, too. Thq
good tobacco taste lasts so
much longer he doesn’t need
to have a fresh chew nearly
as often.
Any man who uses the Real
Tobacco Chew will tell you
that.
