Interesting Talk by Geo. w. Stansfield
on What Makes a Cigar Popular.
The remarkable success of Wads-
worth Bros Chico cigar in getting
into the mouths of smokers in Topeka
is astonishing.
Less than year ago the Chico was
unknown here Today, it is the most
popular cigar in Geo. W. Stansfeld's
large stock
advertising alone will not make a
cigar popular said Mr.. Stansfeld.
"A cigar must be good to meet with
a sale in this city. do not know OF
a town where the smokers are as dis
eliminating as they are in Topeka,
and the fact that they have made
Wadsworth Bros Chico their favorite,
speaks volumes for its quality. While
it sells for sc. it is better than the
average ten center. so that it reaches
all classes of smokers 1t is an all
long Havana filed cigar, and a good
one, that 1 am glad to recommend to
my customers.

One time he was sitting in his lair
at Dodge, which was accused Of being
the worst spot on the map. He heard
that a certain bad man was coming
into town for the purpose of esta blish-

citizens were laying for said rash per-

seemed imminent, but young Beeson

Now Use LiquOzone.

Millions of people. of nine different
nations, are constant users of Lfquo-

germ diseases; some as q tonic No

your neighbors and friends are among
them And half the people you meet
wherever you are-know someone

If you need help, please ask some
or these users what Liouozone does.
Don bhndly take medicine for what
medicine cannot do. Drugs never kill
germs For your own sake, ask about
