REAL. HAVANA CIGARS
FOR FIVE CENTS.
Stansfield Buys Wadsworth Bros Chi
cos Direct From Maker and Saves
Patrons Jobbers' Profit.

The fact that Wadsworth Bros. sell
their Chicos direct to the leading re-
tailers, thus saving all middlemen's
and jobbers' profits, enables me to buy
the Chicos so that can sell them for
five cents straight.
The Chico is a fine, rich aromatic
cigar, with a special selection OF high
grade Havana filler, and while it costs
me more than any other five cent cigar
in my case, yet I am always glad to
recommend it for I know that a
smoker who buys a Chico will come
back to my store for more
The best men in this city, the bankers,
lawyers, the merchants. those who can
afford to spend ten. fifteen cents or
more for cigar prefer the Chico on
account of their mildness, and their
true Havana fragrance and favor.
When you can get a real Havana
cigar for a nickel what is the use of
paying a higher price or smoking a
poorer cigar2
Try a Chico and you will agree that
1t is the best cigar for the money that
you have ever smoked.

White Sox, leading with a total of II.
F1fteen times has the big fellow swat

time for three sacks, since he has worn

playing season, otherwise his record
would still be higher. Jack Henry is
next in line with a total of is extra
bases. To his credit he has Is two
baggers and one triple. Abbott with 10

and two three-baggers. Tom Hughes
bears the solitary distinction of being
the only member of the White Legs to
have made a home-run, and he has
made three. The big fellow occasional

run to his credit. One day against Jop-
