There are three ways used by far
mers for curing and preparing their
tobacco for the market; namely, sun
cured, air cured and fue cured. The
old and cheap way is called air cured;
the later discovery and improved way
is called fue cured. In fue-Curing
the tobacco is taken from the field
and suspended over intensely hot
fues in houses especially built to re-
tain the heat, and there kept in the
proper temperature until this curing
process DEVELOPS in the tobacco the
stimulating taste and fragrant aroma
found in Schnapps tobacco, just as
green coffee is made fragrant and
stimulating by the roasting process.
Only choice selections of this ripe,
juicy fue cured leaf, grown in the
famous Piedmont country, where the
best tobacco grows, are used in
Schnapps and other Reynolds brands
of high grade, fue cured tobaccos.

FLUE CURING IMPROVES TOBACCO LIKE
ROASTING IMPROVES GREEN COFFEE
FIue Curing Develops the Stimulating Aroma and Taste
Found In Schnapps that Satisfies Tobacco Hunger

Hundreds of imitation brands are
on sale that look like Schnapps; the
outside of the imitation plugs of to-
bacco is Aue cured, but the inside is
filled with cheap, Aimsy, heavily
sweetened air cured tobacco; one
chew of Schnapps will satisfy tobacco
hunger longer than two chews of
such tobacco.
Expert tests prove that this Aue
cured tobacco, grown in the famous
Piedmont region, requires and takes
less sweetening than any other kind,
and has wholesome, stimulating,
satisfying effect on chewers. If the
kind oftobacco yO~ are chewing don't
satisfy, more than the mere habit of
expectorating, stop fooling yourself
and chew Schnapps tobacco.
Schnapps is like the tobacco chew
ers formerly bought costing from 75c.
to $I.oo per pound; Schnapps is sold
at soc. per pound in SC. cuts, strictly
10 and IS cent plugs.

RECOGNIZED THE GREETING.

An old farmer was skeptical as to
whether people who were miles apart
could really talk to each other over a
telephone wire.
One day his wife went to make a
visit to a distant friend who had a tele-
phone in her house. During the after
noon the farmer visited a near neigh
Dor who also boosted a house tele-
phone, and who persuaded the farmer
to call up his wife as a little surprise.
Following instructions, he put the re-
ceiyer to his ear, and, after the usual
preiminaries, he shouted:
Hello janet"
Just then a flash of lightning
caused by the heat of the summer day
struck the wire, and he fell sprawling
to the floor. The neighbor was cha
grined that the old man should meet
with such an accident on his first trial
of telephone, and assured him that
such thing would not happen except
in case of storms. But the farmer
was convinced of the possibilities of
communication, however, and would
not try 1t again. He rose to his feet
and, shaking his head knowingly, said:
It's wonderful That was Jane all
right, Ladies' Home Journal.

HOW ONE SHOULD REST.

TO understand how to rest is OIL
more importance than to know how
to work. The latter can be learned il
one will give ones mind to it, but the
former is an act some people never ac-
Qurc. Rest necessitates change OF
scene and activities Lounging is
very often firing, sleeping is not al
ways restful, and sitting down with
nothing to do is simply to invoke
WEAKNESS. A change is needed c
bring into play different set of facul-
ties and to direct the thoughts into a
new channel. The man or woman who
is weary with care finds relief in ac-
tive employment with freedom from
responsibility. The brain worker
generally finds the best rest in playing
hard. 1t is quite a mistake always 10
expect to find it in idleness.

peninsula is the red squirrel, sciurus
hudsonicus which little red scamp is
often alluded to as the northern bushy-
tail.
Some seasons he is very numerous
and makes himself conspicuous &C
every turn of the road. He scampers
up trees jumps upon logs and tears
along over the dry leaves, making as
much noise as a running deer, and is
saucy, impertinent little chap.
Many times one Of these red rogues
has come so close to me while | was
quietly sitting on some log watching
for deer that | could have reached out
and touched him with my hand pro-
vided | could have done 1t quick
enough, says a writer In the Detroit
Free Press.
They seem to be utterly devoid OF
fear Of man and will scold and chatter
at you from some nearby branch of a
tree for half an hour at time.
One day while | was watching a
deer runway and sitting on fallen
tree in the cover of the woods a bold
red came scampering along over The
dry leaves, making such a noise that
he almost precIpitated a hysterical
for fear that, after ALL the deer | was
watching for had actually come so
close to me and gotten out Of range
before | could see it long enough to
shoot at 1t.
What was my surprise a moment
later to see the little rascal that had
been the dsturber of my peace coolly
hop upon the log I was sitting on and
come Looping along it toward me.
sat perfectly still to see what he would
do
He did not seem to notice me until
he had come nearly to my boot, when
he stopped, hesitated, looked sideways
at me, chartered a little and seeming
to be in doubt as to whether | was a
part of the log or not.
After u few moments he began
slowly to approach, all the time eye
ing me out Of the corners of his sharp
little swapping bright eyes. He actG-
ally came half way up my boot leg
when his courage seemed to fail him,
and, turning tail quick as a fash he,
fled precipitately down the log and
then ran up a nearby tree, where
received one Of the most Vigorous ana
vehement seedlings of my ! fe.
These little red squirrels are u lit
tie smaller than the same species
known in the southern part of the
state. They grow bold about the
camps and will often enter log cabin
or tent and steal fried cakes, pieces OF
bread and other dainties from pans
and dishes on the table. In seasons
when there Is heavy mast or plenty
of beech nuts. etc, they are very
numerous and never fail to enliven the
deep silence and awful solemnity OF
the great woods.

An Indian Civil War In Arizona.

Recent daily papers have had ao-
= cunts OF sort Of civil war between two
clans Of tho Moaui indians Of Arizona.
Ralph P. Collins informs tho Enterprise
that the trouble is o: longstanding. When
Mr.. Collins was a teacher among the
moaui the chief was favorable to tho
children going to school. but a consider
able number Of the tribe were opposed.
This chief claimed that his clan had been
the owners Of the village or pueblo for
many generations and no did his level
best to enforce his authority and compel
the parents TO allow tho children to 60 to
school. The present trouble is a eontin-
uation OF this difference Of view about
civilization. Tho educated residents Of
tho village are many Of them boys who
were pupils Of Mr.. Collins years ago and
who arc now men Of affairs in their sc.a-
munity. These educated and civilized
indians have driven tho non-progrs.sive
from tho village and propose 10 keep them
out. A small war Is on hand. but tho
young mon who have boon 10 school
while In the minority have tho advantage
II organization and will probably win the
day. MIR. Collins is Of tho opinion that
the uneivilizsd Indians ought 70 be forced
from the villages out on allotmsnts Of
land and made to earn their living all tho
same - white men. Mr.. Collins is now
down In among these serapping friends
Of his. seeking to make arrangements for
Indian labor hers and his former position
~ teacher will give him an influence In
the adjustment, Of the inter- tribal war now
In progress.
