TIER COOKED
And tobacco now tastes much
better toasted.
You'll know this when you
smoke the famous Lucky Strike
cigarette, the real Burley cigarette.
It's toasted to develop and seal
in the Burley tobacco flavor.

I'd taken a fumy to Martha und I
wanted tier powerful bad. But laws,
what chance had I among ti lot o' fel
lers most of 'em better lookln' than me,
some of 'em wilh either a good farm or
money in the hank or both. Hut Mar
tha anil I were neighbors and good
enough friends, and I says to myself,
why not swoop nround and find out
how the land lays? So one day I says
to her. says I, "Martha, how Is It that
a good-lookin' girl like you don't git
mmiied? it. certainly can't be for
want of fellers to choose from."
"What made you think anybody
wauled me?" she says.
"How about Tom Stlgers?" I says.
"He got live hundred acres of the best
corn laud in the country, and bulldin's
and farm tools complete."
"He wouldn't look at me," said Mar
tha. "Or Jim Ferguson, with his dairy
farm, or Ed Williams, who sells more
goods out of his store In a month than
anybody about here does In n year."
"I couldn't git any one o' them," said
Mart ha, "if I had an oxteam tied to
'em."
I suppose I ort to have said to her
after this, "Well, If yon can't git any
of them fellers, what's the matter
with me?" hut somehow I thort that
there was a big down-hill .lump from
the worst of 'em to tne, who wns as
homely as a groundhog, but I couldn't
do It. I reckoned I'd better beat about
the bush a while longer."
hat would you give me," I said,
"If I'd git you a husband?"
"The first kiss 0' the bride," she
says, lookln' at me out o' the corner
of her eyes kind o' sassy.
The thought o' that first kiss made
me feel like doln' a heap 0' tryin' to
git Martha a husband, but I remem
bered the feller I got for her would git
nil the other kisses, and it wa'n't so
much of a bargain after all.
"Wall," says I, "I'll see what I kin
.do for you." I didn't mean to do any
thing, hut every time I met Martini
after that she says to nie, "When you
goln' to git me that husband?" It
seemed to me I was nmkln' myself
ridiculous In not doln' somepln' In the
matter, so I says one day to Jake Trot
ter, "Jake," says I, "how would you
like to git married?" "Fust rate,"
says Jake, "If I could git a likely gal."
"I know a gal," I says, "who wants a
husband." "Hrlng us together," says
Jake.
Well I done It. I took him to see
Mm-llin. Jake was drlvln' a wagon
through the country, sellln' tinware
and slch like. The next time I met
Martha she was 11-settln' up beside him
on the high seat enjoyln' herself to
bent the band. She waved her hand
to me and hit-fed when she went by
I stood lookln' bark at the wagon anil
I said to myself, "I. like, the fool-klllet
Is lookln' fur you." I met Sam Lynch
h few minutes after I seen Martini
perched up thar beside Jake and I wiyf
to him, "Sam. I wish yon would glvf
ine n good klcklu'." Sam did as I
leked him; then t called upon him K
repent the doge; tnA he done It.
Next day I eo Martini rldln' net
buy inar'. She called out to me, "Luke
come round and see me: I want tf
tliiink you for what ymi done for inc.'
"lib." I say. "It Isn't time for thr
rewind yet."
"Come any way." she says.
So I went round that very evening
Miirlhn had a flue lot o' log hurnln

"Luke, you've done me a mlghtj

I must ' looked powerful down In

I didn't say nuthln'. I couldn't; 1
