Yes—sc Buys a Better Cigar Than It Ever Did. Read the Joyful Story “What? A nickel?” Can a single buffalo-piece put a thorough- | bred cigar between your lips? Yes, | men, it can and will. That may seem strange to some of you who have tried out the average fivecenter. Maybe we can’t convince you with words but you can convince yourself with a five-cent piece. Take that nickel to the nearest I cigar store and ask for a “Havana | Ribbon." As soon as you set it going you’ll thank us for the tip. I You’re going to enjoy a tobacco : treat so satisfying that you will forget the cost. Sniff the aroma. Note the full body and flavor. You’ll be amazed! How can we sell Havana Ribbon at a nickel? Simply because it is so popular. We’ve been able to reduce th? pYice and better the quality, 't costs you only a nickel to let th- cigar prove itself to you. I So, why hold back?
