chewers and pounds of tobacco
chcwed, to the population, in those
States where SCHNAPPS tobacco
was first sold than there are in the
States where SCFiNAPPS has not
yet been offered to the trade.
SCHNAPPS is like a cup of fine
Java coffee, sweetened just enough
to bring cat it's natural, stimulating
qualities. SCHNAPPS pleases all
classes of chewers: the rich, be-
cause they do not find chew that
really pleases them better at any
price; the poor, because it is more
economical than the large 10c. or
15c. plugs and they get their mon
ey's worth of the real snappy, slim
ulating flavor so appreciated by to-
bacco lovers. All limitations con-
tain much more sweetcning than
SCHNAPPS. 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 SCHNAPPS. 81
