Tobacco Dealers Supplying Smokers
With This Pleasing Novelty

A Navajo Observation-Disclosures size.
to be sure-will be given free by
prominent tobacco dealers of Ham
mond for the next few days to every
purchaser of a package of Omar Ciga-
rettes These blankets exactly repro
duce the beautiful color work and uni
que designs of the Navajo Indians. And
because OF it's large size. Ave and
half by eight and one-half inches. this
new novelty is practical well as
beautiful. 1t requires only eight for
pillow top, and no very great number
for table covers, den draperies. sashes,
dress trimming. etc.
The gift of these Navajo blankets
through local dealers is made to en-
sure a wide trial of Omar Cigarettes,
because of the belief on the part of the
manufacturers that smokers generally
| will like and continue using this brand.
1t is said that the plan is fully justih-
| ed by results in other cities. The
| cigarette is described a new Turk
ish blend of very high quality. with a
| favor and fragrance which are wholly
different and unusually pleasing. The
evident value of the gift blanket Is
| certainly evidence of remarkable con
fidence.
