Vile III wreaths of aromatic perfumes, de-
rived from the enjoyment of a cabinet of
one thousand delicious Havana cigars, made
expressly for his excellency by the FL Mod
elo Cigar Manufacturing Company, of this
city, and now on exhibition at the Sub
Tropical Exposition.
They are manufactured of the finest and
choicest tobacco obtainable, which is i'm
ported direct from the celebrated Nuelta

wood and cedar. 1t stands over three feet
high, and contains five shelves lined with
silver, gold and green foil. On each shelf
