MAYOR WRIGHT'S DISCOVERY.
For years the tobacco manufacturer's
of tiie country have been annoyed by
what Is known as the "tobacco bug."
nnd they have made every effort p issl
i?'?? t.- checkmate these destroyers in
their inroads Into the profits of the
business.
Xo matter how well the manufactur?
ed article may be protected with ex
?llent boxing and careful packing;
these littl>-- destroyers will, in spite of
..II the precaution, pet In their destruc?
tive work, and make useless and un
salable thousands upon thousand
pounds of tobacco annually.
A Portsmouth man in the person ot
Mayor James K. M. Wright, whose
taither math- famous the Durham smok?
ing tobacco by Its flavoring, has at
last solved this groat question by dis?
covering u "liquid that will, he says,
anil iii' has given it it long and severe
lest, pevent, by its use. the gt .it an?
noyance and loss which the tobacco
manufacturers have been subjected to
by reason of these little bugs.
Kp firmly convinced is Mayor Wright,
thai he has Just what lias been so long
heeded in that direction, and so abso?
lutely sure is he. that It will do its
work quickly and effectually, thai he
has agreed to allow any and all repu?
table manufacturers of tobacco to test
it for themselves, lie calls it "Wrlghlt's
Tobacco Pug Destroyer." and "If It
will do what ils discoverer is positive it
will do, a large fortune awaits Mayor
Wright, said a well known dealer yes?
terday.
