FIuG Curing Develops the Stimulating Aroma and Taste
Found In Schnapps that Satisfies Tobacco Hunger

Hundreds of imitation brands are
on sale that leak like Schnapps; the
outside of the imitation plugs of to-
bacco is flue cured, but the inside is
filled with cheap, flimsy, heavily
swcctcned air cured tobacco; one
chew of Schnapps will satisfy tobacco
hunger longer than two chews of
such tobacco.
Expert tests prove that this fue
cured tobacco, grown in the famous
Piedmont region, requires and takes
less swcetening than any other kind.
and has a wholesome, stimulating,
satisfying effect on chewers. If the
kind of tobacco yOW are chewing don't
satisfy, more than the mere habit of
eXpectorating, stop fooling yourself

There are three ways used by far
mcrs for curing and preparing their
tobacco for the market; namely, sun
cured, air cured and tluc cured. The
old and cheap way is called air cured;
the later discovery and improved way
IS called flue cured. In tlue-curing
the tobacco is taken from the field
and suspended over intensely hot
flues in houses especially built to re-
tain the heat and there kept in the
proper temperature until this curing
process devclopcs 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 flue cured leaf, grown in the
famous Piedmont country, where the
best tobacco grows, are used in
Schnapps and other Reynolds brands
of high grade, flue CURED tobaccos.

Interesting incident that came under
lis observation:
Being on a walking tour through Ia
ishowen and passing along the e&Se of
Tough Swilly, the romantic Lake OF
Shadows. he noticed an immense gath
ering Of rocks on the sandy shore. In
company with several others, the tour
list was attracted by this novel spec.
tacle and began to wonder at the u
of it. An old man who was working in
a field near the place offered an eXpla'
nation. He said that the birds We're
picking up sand to ballast themselves
in a storm and that when they did so
il was Il sure sign of approaching bad
weather. He added that on shooting
rocks after a gathering of the sort he
had found that they were loaded with
sand. AS Il matter of fact, the gentle
man concludes, a violent gale set in

Healthy horses require no medicine,
but there are so many intestinal para
sites and so many kinds of worms thai
affect horses that constant supervision
PAYS. Almost all young horses are bet
ter for a few feeds of sulphur IN the
springtime. Many horsemen like to
give q little worm medicine, ana each
man has his favorite. A good many
worm medicines are harmless, and If
administered to a healthy colt will do
no harm. Usually a keen horseman
knows whether worm remedies are nee
essary or not, but in case of doubt 1T IS
a little safer to give the medicine, pro-
vided the medicine is really harmless.
Some medicines are harmless and some
are not. Stimulants are not necessary,
and stimulating medicines should never
be given except on the advice OF a

shown one day in the house of COM
mons. Irving was under the gallery in
the house when suddenly, without ap-
parent reason, Gladstone leaped to his
feet and delivered an imprisoned
speech. set off with all the expression
and dramatic gesture for which he was
so famous. The house seemed sur
prised. Members looked at one another
and murmured, What is the old man
now up to- They thought it was some
deep political game. But a week or
two later a friend Of Irving's, encoun-
tering Mr.. Gladstone, mentioned the
actors visit to the house, and Gladstone
eagerly inquired: What did he think
