WHY PRINCE ALBERT WINS

Fate'tot i’rof e‘ s Is Respypsibii f<»r It*.' International Popularity. SnHktrs’so mu« h . appreciate the ibVror and coolness ;u j annua of Prince Albert . p.j - . and ;< i garette tobacco that ti.'-y <• i. .< marvel that this one brand co.-rid. t - so different Hom all ithero. The answer to this •tues’ipn is to to found on the reverse side of every Prince Albert package, where you will read: Process Patented July 30th, 1907. ‘ That tells the whole story. Prince •Albert is made by a patented process that cuts out ho iei< and larch, which makes the tobacco so mighty agreeable and satisfying .to men of every t;-.->te of every civilized nation on the globe. Smokers should realize that this patented process cost three, years’ continuous work and study and a fortune, in money to perfect- But the result has proven to be worth all that was expended upon it, because it has set free men who believed they never could enjoy a pipe or a makin’s cigarette. Prince Albert makes it possible for every man to smoke a pipe or to roll his own cigarettes.- And, no matter how tender the tongue. Prince Albert cannot bite or parch. That is cut out by the patented process, leaving for the smoker only the joys of the fragrant tobacco. it is a fact that since Prince Albert “arrived,” ■ just about six years ago, it has made three men smoke pipes where one smoked a pipe before!—Advertisement.
