Nervous

The action of digestion is con-
trolled by nerves leading to the
stomach. When they are weak, the
stomach is deprived OF its energy.

and gives the organs power to per-
form their functions.
For many years i was an acute sufferer from

How many times have you been the
victim of bad cigars? You didn't feel
like buying from that dealer again, did
you?
Now that is precisely where both you
and the dealer got the small end of the
bargain.
You got it in bad cigar.
He got it in the loss of your trade.
1t served you both right.
When you learn to demand and
get triangle A" cigars, it will be
better for both you and the dealer.
You'll get the acme of cigar quality in
the Triangle A" brands, and the dealer
who sells them will hold your trade
always.
There is one right way to buy cigars.
Look for the "A" triangle Al on the cigar
box every time you buy.
There is no other way to get as good
value as you are entitled to.
This "Triangle A" merit mark Identifies the
product Of the most modern improved methods
and scientific processes of cigar production and
represents standard Of quality far superior to
those cigars not marked with "A" Uriangle Az.
