SAYS the man, who's learnedhow good rich tobacco

really is:"Tie your bull on the outside

and come on in where the good tobaccois. ' You've been wasting your oppor-tunity with unnecessary grinding andspitting; rest your jaws and contentyour soul with a little nibble of theReal Tobacco Chew."

A littlechew of pure, rich, mellow tobacco—seasonedand sweetened just enough— cuts out so much of thegrinding and spitting.

**iCHEWING TOBACCO.IT IS THE NEW

TOBACCO CHEW-CUT LONG 3HPED.

\T Take less than one-quarter the old size chew. IIft willbe more satisfying than a mouthful of ordinaryL tobacco. Just take a nibble ofit until you find theI strength chew that suits you, then see how easily and

evenly the real tobacco tsste comes, how it satisfies,bow much less you have to spit, how few chews you take to be tobaooosatisfied. That's why it is Th* Real Tobacco Chew. That's why it ooetaless in the end.

The taste of pure, rich tobacco does not need to be covered up. Aa,•XOCSS of licorice and sweetening makes you spit too much.

One small chew takes the place of two bigChews of the old kind.
