LET THE EAGLE SCREAM.
King of Birds Looks Well on the Label
of the King of Cigars.

1t is not often that the cigar store
has lot of eagles. but Geo. w. STAINS
field, $50 Kansas avenue, when he re-
sceived a stock of Wadsworth Bros. >
Chfcos cigars found that a handsome
eagle decorated the box. 1t is very
appropriate, he says, to have the king
of birds on the label of the King of
cigars. This is one that pleases all
who love a good smoke, yet it sells
for only 5 cents Smokers who used
to pay 10 to Is cents for cigars now
puff up the Chicos, and are better
pleased and satisfied.
Try a Chico and you will thank Mr..
Stansfield for recommending the
cigar.
