LEAF TOBACCO.

Pay your money for pure and un-
adulterated tobacco, not for gaudy pic
lures and perfumery. The Government
has released the tax on Leaf Tobacco,
and all that is required of you is to
register at the Office of the Internal
Revenue Collector of your district,
which does not cost anything, and then
keep record of what you buy and sell.
With all orders we give a Government
book in which to keep the record. We
have been leaf tobacco dealers for
twenty years, and handling same from
first hands enables us to give you a
much better price than our competitors.
Dark, Light and Red Leaf for chewing,
and Bright Plugs for smoking, all in
sound condition. Give us a trial order
and be convinced of their superior quail
tiles Packed in so and 100 pound
boxes.
