What is probably the biggest lot of
all fancy grade tobacco held by any
factory in the United States has Just
been purchased by Frank =. Lewis, of
Peoria, for the manufacture of Lewis
Single Binder Cigars. The lot will
make twenty-four carloads, and is Sc
lected from what is considered by ex-
perts to be the finest crop raised in
many years. The purchase of tobacco
is sufficient TO last the factory more
than two years. An extra price was
paid for the selection. Smokers of

Mrs. Haines afterward cashed the
