qPHE lean horse for the long
race—a little of the Real
Tobacco Chew goes further, lasts
longer, gives more real comfort
and satisfaction than the big
wad of the the old kind.
Many men are telling friends about
the Real Tobacco Chew*
A little chew of pure, rich, mellow tobacco—seasoned
and sweetened just enough—cuts out so much of the
grinding and spitting.
?!
TNÇ REAL TOBACCO CHEW M NOW CUT TWO WAYS«
W-P CUT » LOHO SHWTO. RIGHT-CUT I» «HOWT SUMP.
Take less than one-quarter the old size chew. It
will be more satisfying than a mouthful of ordinary
tobacco. Just take a nibble of it until you find the
strength chew that suits you, then see how easily and
evenly the real tobacco taste comes, how it satisfies,
bow much less you have to spit, how lew chews you
take to be tobacco satisfied. That's why It is 7%«
RealTobacco Chew. That's why it costs less in the end.
I taste of pure, rich tobacco does not need tobe covered up. An
csoese of licorice and sweetening makes you spit too much.
One small chew takes the place of two big
chews of the old kind.

out the rich tobacco taste. 9 9
