Did you ever notice that to-
bacco is always clean? If a man
drops a piece of meat, no matter
how clean the floor may be, he will
either give it kick or pick it up
and lay it to one side. He will never
eat it. But let him drop his plug
of tobacco on the ground and no
difference how dirty the spot where
it fell, he will pick it up and give it
a careless swipe on his coat sleeve
or on the bosom of his pants and
then take chew with greater rel
ish than ever.
