CHEWING TOBACCO. AN IMPORTANT

N putting up Fine Cut Chewing Tobacco has
NewYork City.
Tobacco OF the Best Quality is selected, neatly
wrapped in Tin Foil, and Patent Pressed.
The great advantages of this over other b..
consists in the size of the packages, rem icy: III
more convenient to carry in the pocket, ana by be-
ing pressed solid it keeps moist and rresh, and i'm
proves in quality as it used while in other brands,
as soon as the package is opened, the quality zap.
idly deseriorates-the tobacco growing dry-and
litterng the pocket to the great annoyance of the
consumer. The dressing which the Fine Cut To-
bacco undcrgoes in the process Of manufacture,
frees it from all grit impurities, Objectionable
in the use of all Plug Tobacco. Chewers will do
well to give the Patent Pressed trial, and judge
for themselves.
For sale by Wholesale Merchants who receive it
