C. ? s * ? ^ones^ reason THERE IS ONLY one real reason for smoking and that's pleasure. A pretty good reason after all. The cigarette you select in the long run will be the one that can contribute most to your enjoyment. Camels are made with that idea in mind ? the idea that genuine smoke pleasure is what you want in a cigarette. When you try them you will find a refreshing difference ? a mild, mellow richness of choice tobaccos?a blended harmony of fragrance, " silky smooth?that makes smoking a delight. The fact that more millions have chosen Camel than any other ciga rette is a tribute to an honest product, marketed for an honest purpose. Camels for pleasure Company, Winston-Salem. N. C. Ir X
