Question About It
they are
YOU'RE RIGHT. . . there's one thing that stands
out about Chesterfield. That is . . . they're Milder.
This means Chesterfields aren't harsh. It means
they're not strong or heavy.
Early in the day or late at night you'll find that
Chesterfields are always pleasing. They are mild
and yet they satisfy.
What's more they taste better, too. That's it
milder and better taste. These are the two out
standing merits of Chesterfield.
Plus ... a third important advantage. Chester
fields are as pure as the water you drink ... as
pure as science can make them.
