Schnapps Tobacco is Made ENTIRELY from Flue Cured
Tobacco Grown i'm the Piedmont Country.
The Imitation Brands Have SChnapps
Quality Only On the Outside
Of the Plug

Hundreds of imitation brands are
on sale that look like Schnapps to-
bacco. The outside of the imitation
plugs of tobacco is hue cured the same
as Schnapps, but the inside is filled
with cheap, fimsy, heavily sweetened
air cured tobacco. One chew of
Schnapps will satisfy tobacco hunger
longer than two chews of such to-
bacco. The color, size and shape
of the tags, plugs and packages of
certain imitation brands of tobacco
have been made SO much like
Schnapps that they have often been
accepted by buyers under the belief
that they were getting Schnapps.
Sufficient proof has been secured
to establish the fact that certain
brands are infringements and in vio-
lation of the trade mark laws, yet the
trade will continue to be imposed
upon by these infringers until the suit
already entered and now pending to
protect Schnapps is decided. A
great many of these limitations are

Schnapps, but there is only one gem
uine Schnapps. Be sure the letters
on the tag, and stamped on the plug
under the tag spell S-C-H-N-A-P-P-S
and then you have 1.-THE most
wholesome tobacco produced, with
just enough sweetening to preserve
the mild, juicy, stimulating quality of
the leaf tobacco. Expert tests prove
that this fue cured tobacco, grown
in the famous Piedmont region, re-
quires and takes less sweetening than
any other and has wholesome,
stimulating, satisfying effect on
chewers.
If the tobacco you are chewing
don't satisfy you more than the mere
habit Of expectorating, stop fooling
yourself and chew Schnapps tobacco.
Schnapps is like the tobacco chewers
formerly bought costing from 75c.
to SI.oo per pound; Schnapps is
sold at soc. per pound, in sc. cuts,
strictly Ioc. and I5c plugs.
