Chesterfields are as good

oney can
Every pound of Domestic tobacco used
to Chesterfield dgarettes is aged for thirty
months 2yi years. Science knows there is no
.' other way to make cigarette tobaccos mild
and mellow.
Every process used in the manufacture
of Chesterfield dgarettes is modern, sdentific
and clean visitors are always impressed with
the cleanliness of the Chesterfield factories.
Every ingredient, including the paper, is
pure nothing that you eat or drink is tested
more carefully.
And Chesterfields are made right; tha
right length, the right diameter, and filled
right a detail perhaps, but if a rigarette is
"to satisfy" it must be made right.
Everything about Chesterfield is as good
as money can buy or Sdence knows about
you have our word for this.
And Chesterfields are milder and taste
better this much you tan prove fir yourself.
