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

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 hue~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 developes 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.
The herald and news. [volume] (Newberry S.C.) 1903-1937, 1906-10-23

Hundreds of imitation brands are
on sale that look like Schnapps; the
outside of the imitation plugs of to-
bacco is fue cured, but the inside is
filled with cheap, himsy, 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 fue
cured tobacco, grown in the famous
Piedmont region, requires and takes
less sweetening than any other kind,
and has a wholesome, stimulating,
satisfying effect on chewers. If the
kind of tobacco y0u 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 P1 90 per pound; Schnapps is sold
at soc. per pound in sc. cuts, strictly
10 and IS cent plugs.

ALLEN is STILL AT
LARGE AND GONE.
Jailbird Skips From Prison
Here.
DOOR OPENED FROM INTERIOR
And Prisoner Very Easily made His
Escape-5undrick, His ceIImate,
Did Not Attempt 10 Escape-AIIen
Held Upon Slight Charge.

The first escape from Castle Sumter
in smany long years was Effected yes
terdsy morning about O'Clock, when
Henry Allen, young white man held
upon a misdemeanor charge, walked
through two open doors to liberty and
then liked hence to parts unknown.
ALEXIS ''c9llmate, George Bundrick,
the white man under dea'h sentence
for murder, did not attempt to escape
or even leave his cell as he might have
done in the same way as did Allen.
Y ung Allen got good start ere he
was wiesed, and is still going.
When Jailer Covington went yester-
day morning TO feed the jailbirds Bun
drIck, who occupied cage in the front
tier of cells, called TO him that "his
partner was gone" meaning Allen.
Jaller Covington Immediately went to
investigate the fight of Allen.
The main door to the prisoners cor
ridor was unguarded for a moment.
But this moment was long enough
for Henry Allen to climb down from
the top of his csge, where he lay con-
cealed, and when the laiIel . back was
turned he sailed through it like bird.
Allen had picked the big paddock on
his cell door and, after getting out,
had tried to dig through the solid
brick wall with an old spoon. Failing
in this, he climbed to the top of the
tier of cells and Immediately over his
cage to await better opportunity.
This came when the jailer, after first
securely shutting Bundrick's cell door
went to examine the hole in the wall,
leaving the main door unguarded,
This was Aliens opportunity, and
he lost no time in putting miles be-
tween himself and the prison.
Bundrick had made no attempt to es-
cape, and all the other prisoners were
securely locked in their cages, MIR,
Bundrick is an athletic young man
and sentenced to hang, and the won
der is that he, too, did not make q
break as did young Allen.
A thorough search was made for the
fleeing bird, but to no purpose. Allen
was charged with the theft of several
dollars from Bolton. Bros. store a
month age, teongh the evider ce
against him was ciicumstantial. He
would have been tried uext week.
It is fortunate that Allen alone es-
capped, and there will be no other such
opportunity for anyone.
