neighborhood musicians with their
fiddles and banjos, you will want to
hear the like again. It will bring

you will realize one of the things
you have missed by not having been
reared in the wide-open country.

Camels are FRESH? j
The bedrock of Camel popularity is
the inherently fine quality of the tobaccos
that go into our cigarette.
These tobaccos are notably mild, fall
mellow, delicately flavored by nature?
the finest Turkish and mild, sun-ripened
Domestic tobaccos that money can buy.
To safeguard the essential goodness of
these fine tobaccos we exercise every
care to conserve their natural moisture
and natural flavors.
They are never parched or toasted?
the Reynolds method of scientifically
applying heat guarantees against that.
That's why we say Camels are made
fresh to start with ? and why the Camel
Humidor Packean bring them fresh to
yon, in prime smoking condition. 1
If you want to know what a blessing
that means in unalloyed smoke-enjoy
ment, switch to Camels for just one day
?then leave them?if you can.
