world. These men are the official to
bacco teeters, and they pass Judgment

They consist of a chairman and live
assistants, and from morning to even

cigars, cigarettes and pities, in order
to arrive at au estimate of the differ

them.
It ia not only the products of home
industry that come before them for
Judgment. but the cigars and cigarettes
that are sold lu France have also to
make their appeal to the decision of
tbeir palate, and the pleasautest part
of the day's work comes when It falls
