Have you ever noticed, When you bite off the end of a cigar, that you often tear the wrapper or pull out a part of the filler? You can't enjoy smoking a cigar when it is torn like that And we want you to enjoy every OWL you smoke. . So take your OWL and cut the end with your knife. Cut the tip off square, or notch it either way will do. Now you are sure of getting a good, satisfying smoke. Pardon the advice, but Treat your OWL the way you would treat a 25-cent cigar. Light it just as carefully. It's worth it! Any cigar deserves careful treat ment if it gives you a good mellow' smoke. And that's what the OWL does, every time. M. A. GUNST & CO.
