But she’s a natural favorite to begin witli. And for the same reason Camels are favorites witli the modern crowd. Scientific principles govern their manufacture; but the mildness, the fragrance, the delicate flavor are natural qualities of the tobacco. There’s enjoyment in the smoking of a Camel. Camels go with happy faces ... a lift of spirits with the opening of every fresh, fragrant pack. For Camel’s delightful mildness holds all the natural goodness of choicest tobaccos. Don’t confuse it with the flatness or insipidness of “over-treated” cigarettes. Qamels '■RASY TO LISTEN TO”—CAMEL PLEASURE HOUR Wednesday evenings on N. B. C. network, WJZ and issocluted stations.
