chewers and pounds of tobacco
chewed, to the population, in those
States where SCEINAPPS Tobacco
was first sold than there are in the
States where SCHNAPPS has not
yet been offered to the trade.
SCE1NAPPS is like a CUP of fine
Java coffee, sweetened just enough
to bring out it's natural, stimulating
qualities. SCHNAPPS pleases ali
classes of chewers: the rich, be-
cause they do not find a chew that
really pleases them better at anv
price; the poor, because it is more
economical than the large 1Oc. or
15c. plugs and they get their mon
ey's worth of the real snappy, slim
ulating flavor SO appreciated bv to-
bacco lovers. All limitations con-
tain much more sweetening than
SCaNAPPS. They are made that
way to hide poor tobacco improp-
erly cured.
For the man who chews tobacco
for tobacco s sake, there is no chew
like SCE4NAPPS.
