ers.-The undersigned offer to the consumers of
Smoking Tobacco, an article which has been pro-
nounced by all who have tested it, superior to any
preparation of the weed for smoking purposes.
which has yet been offered to the public. The pc
culiar advantage of the article which they offer is
this in all tobacco there is concrete OIL Nicotine
one of its active principles, and which is eminenty
poisonous The effects of this principle are disa-
greeably felt, more or less, upon the nerves and
stomach, by all smokers The Tobacco offered by
the undersigned has been entirely deprived of its
poisonous properties, whilst, at the same time it
retains all its fragrant and aromatic qualities So
mild and pleasant has it been rendered that persons
of weak nerves can use it without Inconvenience
1t has the additional advantage that it does noteave
that strong and pungent odor SO perceptble and
offensive In close rooms.
