H ere is the topmost cigarette the highest point of smoking enjoyment and satisfaction the spur cigarette. Studied "from the ground up' in seed, soil, plant and culture. Studied in blending, studied in making, studied in packing. Spurs are blended in a new way from American and Oriental tobaccos, bringing out to the full that good old-time tobacco taste. The satiny imported paper is crimped, not pasted, making an easier-drawing, slower-burning cigarette. You'll approve of the smart brown and silver packet, three-fold, that preserves Spurs taste and fragrance. Liggett Sc Myers Tobacco Co,
