"Reach for a

v. Place your finger on your
Adam's Apple. You are actually

tains your voice box your vocal

From the report of a famous
scientist who studied the effects
of LUCKY STRIKE'S exclusive
"TOASTING" Process-
" During the course of tome recent
investigations... we became inter
cited to ascertain whether Ultra
Violet Rays produced any change
in the quality of the cigarette. It
, may interest you to know that I
wot able to detect a very definite
difference in the irritant qualities
of the treated and untreated cig
arette. Several tests were made, '
not only on myself, but others as
well, and we experienced little
difficulty in selecting the treated
or irradiated cigarettes as dis
tinctly less irritating to the mu
cous membrane of the nose and
pharynx than the control or un
treated cigarettes."
Sunshine mellows heat purifies
- that's why LUCKY STRIKE'S ex
clusive "TOASTING" Process in
cludes the use of modern Ultra
Violet Rays. Remember- LUCKY
STRIKE is the only cigarette In
America that brings you the added
benefits of "TOASTING". And so
we say "Consider your Adam's
Apple". Be careful in your choice
of cigarettes.
