“A GOOD CIGAR FUR 5c - WHAT?” Here’s a cigar which knocks all doubt sky-high You’ve often been fooled on 5c cigars, we admit. We don’t blame you if you’re ‘'from Missouri”— that’s the kind of men we're shouting to. Risk just one more nickel—try a Havana Ribbon. You may get the idea that this is a higher priced cigar cut to five cents for some dark purpose. But there’s no catch in it at all. Havana Ribbon is simply an example of what really can be put into a nickel cigar by sincere manufacture and huge production: Ripe, long-filler tobacco—cured, age-mel-lowed and skilfully put together (no bitter nnder-ripe nor flat wer-tipe leaves). Smoke so sweet, cool, mild and full-flavored, you’ll scarcely believe it possible in a 5c cigar. No question about it, Havana Ribbon is the world’s greatest tivecent smoke. Shoot one buffalo coin and see. At cigar" counters everywhere. Also sold in Practical Poiktt Packages of five cigars.
