t ONE BRAND’ 1
| one quality
j One Stic Package
All our skill, facilities, and lifelong knowledge of the
finest tobaccos are concentrated this one cigarette— El
CAMEL.
Into tills ONE BRAND, w.e put the utmost quality.
Nothing is too good for Camels. They are as good as it’s
possible o make a cigarette.
Catn.,l QUALITY is always maintained at the same high,
exclusive standard. You can always depend on the same
mellow-mild refreshing smoothness—the taste and rich
flavor of choicest tobaccos and entire freedom from
cigaretty aftertaste.
And remember this! Camels come in one size package
oniy—2o cigarettes —just the right size to make the greatest
saving in production and packing. This saving goes :
straight into Camel Quality. That’s one reason why you
can get Camel Quality at so moderate a price. !
Here’s another. We put no useless
fills on the Camel package. No “extra
rappers!” Nothing just for showl \
Such things do not improve the smoke j
y more than premiums or coupons. And \
sir added cost must go onto the price [
come out of the quality. [
One thing, and only one, is responsible \
r Camels great and growing popularity [
—that is CAMEL QUALITY. _

With Our
Correspondents
Hens —Just Hens
The little story we are here re
lating is only for our correspond
ents —if you’re not one of thi m
net off the line.
We last week told onr corres
pondents we are war. ting infor
mation of cows and hens; am) a«
thiß little story is about her.s, we
'thought it would be in line with
that part of the subject.
Probably to put it more appro
priately. the informatiou asked
far on cows and liens simply put
us is mind of the little story.
Indeed, the only relation ue
tween the two is that the infor
mation wanted is about hens
and tne story is about hens -
that’s all.
Well, the little stprjt is on our
selves (editorial singullr), hut a
story ts a story, regardless of who
it is on.
It was twenty-five years ago,
when the editor of this g.eat
moral guide turhod temporarily
fromthestraight an 1 narrow path
of journalism to the laudable vo
cation of teaching the rising gc;i
| oration how to shoot, knowing
that in the vesy early future the
sard young hopefulls would be
called upon to make- the world
"safe for democrat party” —e'c.
etc.
But what has this to do with
the hen story?
‘ There being very little aßide
from relaxation and afrollicsome
good time in teaching the use o!
the bow rnd arr iw, our good
helpmeet and ourselves (editorial
singular) took u ito our-elves
grammatical plor d) a herd of
hens.
The editor had seen theseoark
lers of the barnyard, and hence
put up roosts in an old dilapidit
ed old frame that gave them sun
Yes
it’s toasted, of
course. To seal
in the flavor
%' y
; light by day and moonlight by
night thri ugh tin? weather
! hoarding apertures of the build
ing; and as light was what
[they wore needing- according to
our information, v\e (plural) had
the ideal place for hens.
And one night (or da>) there
came a great snow storm, with
about six inches outside of the!,
hen house and about two foot in*
side.
And it was cold as hlitzcn for
a couple of wt eks, so later on we
(singu'ar) wrote to a poultry
journal veterinarian for informa
tion of what f-wi disease was i
taking <ll our (p’.uiv l ) !:• ay-1
ing unto him that their eyes
would close up. and their noses, i
too, and w - (either singular or
plural) didn’t know what to -to.
Then one day a good motunrly
lady said to us that anyb »dy
that didn’t know more
about hen 3 than we did ought to
go and chase themselves -- or!
words to that effect, etc., etc.
Second chapter of this hen
story next week —for our corres-j
pondeuts only. '
