Schnapps Tobacco is Made ENTIRELY from Flu Cured
~ Tobacco Grown in the Piedmont Country.
The Imitation Brands Have Schnapps
Quality Only On the Outside
of the Plug

claimed to be "just as good" as
Schnapps, but there is only one gen
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 a wholesome,
stimulating, satisfying effect on
chewers.
If the tobacco you are chewing
don't satisfy you more than the mere
habit of e~xpectorating, stop fooling
yourself and chew Schnapps tobacco.
Schnapps is like the tobacco chewers
formerly bought costing from 75c.
to $1.oo per pound; Schnapps is
sold at soc. per pound, in SC. cuts,
strictly 1oc. and 15c. plugs.

GIL'S BREEZY CHAT OF SPORT


Come on you sox. Back IN second
place today and only one game and
half behind the Athletics. The usual
shift in positions and the race is on.
Washington proved rather a tough
customer owing to the rank decision
of imp Evans, who was looking south
on one play when he should have had
his eyes on the diamond. The game
went ten innings because OF the de-
cision. in which Evans called Ganley
safe at second when he was tagged a
foot from the base, and the next man
brought him home with a two-ba gger.
