Phone 709 Eighth and Main Sis. Klamath Falls, Ore oA 'ward to the WIVES P. A. says "MERRY CHRISTMAS" capital letters in "NO MORE WORRYINV as the song says, about what to give the man who smokes a pipe. Here is the National Joy Smoke, Prince Albert, all fussed up in holiday attire. A gift to gladden his heart on the Big Day; a generous supply to keep him happy. Peeping out of the special Christmas carton is the pound crystal-glass humidor vith sponge-moistener top. A container to grace any smokirg-stand or office-desk. As practical as it is good-looking. Best of all, it contains Prince Albert mild, mellow, and fragrant! . In addition to the glass humidor, there are pound and half-pound tins of this same wonderful tobacco. It's the tobacco, after all, that counts. Experienced .smok ers know that no other tobacco is like P. A. for sheer pipe-enjoyment, day in and day out. Take out your Christmas list now. Alongside the name of every pipe-smoker write "Prince Albert." This is the happy solution of the annual problem so far as the men-folks are concerned. It will save your time and give others the time of their lives. P. A. It 'teilj rtmmkrrt In Mr tti ttnt, pam4 mn4 hlt-Him4 tin hum dutt.mi pound rrrtf.t.gf.ff Humidott with ipomf.mnittener lop.
