How America’s largest cigarette manufacturer has accomplished “the Impossible y producing a MILD cigarette that SA lISFIES. It is the Chfsterfield Cigarette ; :

ALMOST anybody can make a cup ZX of coffee. But there are said to be not over a half-dozen restaurants in the United States where they know how to make it right. Similarly, almost anyone can make a cigarette, just roll up some tobacco in a piece of pure paper —and there you art. There are, perhaps, over 800 brands of cigarettes sold in this country today. But not one of them does what Chesterfields do —for Chesterfields are MILD ; and yet they SATISFY. Some cigarettes maybe mild, but they don’t satisfy. Only one cigarette does BOTH—Chesterfield! This truly unique cigarette lias all of that refreshing taste - delicacy (or mildness) which any good cigarette must have. Yet, without sacrificing any of this delightful mildness, Chesterfields go one step further — they do more than merely “ please your taste they let you know you’ve been smoking. They satisfy ! And yet they’re mild! A Step Forward in Cigarette • Making \ Y/ T E nre proud to be the firm that has ’ ’ brought about this important new development in cigarette enjoyment for that is exactly what the Chesterfield blend is. This cigarette is an outgrowth of long, earnest effort on the part of this, the largest cigarette manufacturing concern in the United States.

Highest Genius. Activity is God’s medicine; the highest genius is willingness and ability to do hard work. Any other conception of genius makes it a doubtful, if not a dangerous, possession.—R. 3. MacArthur. • 'W ~~~~~~ " —

The mild, yet satisfying Chesterfield blend is not the result of happy chance. It is one of the results of our many years of cigarette experience —of the heavy volume of our purchases of cigarette tobacco s the prestige and advantage these enormous purchases give us in securing the choicest leaf from the tobacco fields of the world. Chesterfields are an achievement. A New Thing for a Cigarette to Do do the one thing you have always wished a cigarette would do —they satisfy ! Smoke them and we believe you will find that ordinary cigarettes seem by comparison almost flat. Give Chesterfields (20 for 10 cents) a trial. We believe you will be glad to learn what they can teach you about cigarette enjoyment. ★ ♦ * You have been reading here some rather unusual, almost daring, statements about a cigarette. If Chesterfields were an untried cigarette — if we had not been observing their behavior in other cities —if we did not KNOW that they make good with smokers, we could not afford to make these statements to you over our signature. But these statements, strong as they are, can mean little or nothing to you until you have actually smoked your first Chesterfield. You will find that your own dealer Las Chesterfields waiting for you. Largest eixarette manufacturer In the United Stales as shown bj iutcnwi lUiVcuus reuurta.
