In conformity with the wishes Of most of

On account of the time to be spent on
the excursion the comfort of the excursion

sO,OOO,OOO Lost in cigar Bo1e. De-

$4,000, 900 Lost in Cigar Boxes De-
strOyed Every Year.
1t is generally known that the inter
nal revenue laws prohibit the use of
cigar box for packing cigars more than
once. This entails an unnecessary con-
sumption of valuable cedar wood for the
manufacture of cigar boxes, and 1t is es-
timated that cigar boxes to the value Of
100000 are destroyed every year, with
the result that the supply of cedar for that
purpose is being rapidly exhausted. The
+. R. Rice Mercantile Cigar company Of
St. Louis has solved the problem of both
dealer and smoker. This firm has patented
glass jar with an alright screw top
which is easily removed by a simple half
way twist. The tops are lined with as
bestos and fit the jars absolutely air-tight
thus keeping the cigars at all times fresh
and at just the right degree of moisture
to insure a cool, fragrant smoke. This
firm manufactures the well-known Mer-
camille cigar. which, in the many years
It has been on the market has never lost
It's great popularity. 1t is cigar made
of carefully selected, clear Havana filler,
smoke of the highest quality with a
rich mellow flavor that commends It to
the discriminating taste OF the most fas-
tidious smoker.
