THE CHINGAR0RA
TeH ANTl-NERVOUS
SMOKING TOBACCO.

The CHINGARoRA TOBACCO ows from the
rich soil of the "oRIENT," and is possessed of pc
euliarly delicious flavor entirely unknown to the to-
bacco Of all other climes. But its Unprecedented
popularity has sprung from the fact of the entire alb
sence ofthat deadly poison Nicotis, which pemeates
every other tobacco and which is the one and sole
cause Of the distressing nervous diseases dyspepsia,
&e, which most invariably sooner or later, follow
the indulgence of the pipe and cigar At the recent
anaiyzaton Of tobacco from all parts of the world
at the Academy of Sciences in Paris, the renowned
Chemist, nj. LAMoUREAUX, declared that while Eu-
ropean and American tobacco contained fully eight
per cent, and the purest Havana tobacco from two
to I've per cent. Of Nicotia, the GiRoIaA did
not contain one discoverabc particle Of that deadly
poison, drop OF which, extracted will destroy life
Our Agent at BOMBAY has shipped us large guam
titles of the CHINGARORA during the past two
years, and although we have been pressed TO supply
the demand for this delicious luxury to the veteran
smoker, yet are prepared to offer it in unlm-
tied quantities, at price much lower than some
American tobacco of lar inferior quality.
A eonnoisseur has but to smoke the American to-
baceo and segars, which invariably chemically
hsvored, to be disguised with the medicinal taste
which leavesa nauseous, unhealthy coating in the
mouth, and in time seldom fails TO shatter the
vous system. = -.
The natives OF the "oRIENT" smoke the CHIN
GARoRA from morn till night, from youth to age,
and happily unconscious of the Wild distressing
fire which courses through the veins OF the inhaler Of
the fumes of tobacco containing NieotiR.
We invite every lover of the weed to Try the CHIN
GARoRA, and guarantee unprecedented pleasure in
its delicious favor.
