For cluar Smokers.

When you smoke a cigar you want
good one. A poor cigar is rank
abomInation and stencil in your own
nostrils and in those Of your friends

and easy drawing qualities without
paying an exofbitant price for 1t. II

Peoria. ILL.,, 10 solve the problem for
us. His Lewis Single Binder &c cigar
is without doubt the peer OF any brand
of 1Oc cigars on the market. The
Lewis Single Binder cigar is wrapped
in tlnfoil and reaches the smoker as
fresh as when leaving the factory. Its
smooth, rich, satisfying smoking quail
tiles are a delight both to the palate
and the nostrlls of cigar connoisseurs
everywhere. In spite of the fact that
the Lewis factory employ no travel.
