HIGH COST OF LIVING"
IS A MISNOMER WHEN
APPLIED TO TOBACCO
Mascot a Great Factor in Keeping
Down the Cost of Tobacco
Smoking.

In reference to tobacco, the high
cost of living" problem, which is at
present occupying the minds of the
American public, finds no foothold-
especially since the advent of Mascot
tobacco. AS an instance, the manu-
facturers of Mascot claim that in sell
ing it for 5 cents they are giving to the
smoking public just as much in guam
tity and quality as is provided by the
famous 10 cent Burnley tobaccos.
In addition to this, they argue that
their method of packing Mascot in
moisture-proof pouches is an ideal
method, both in point of convenience
and ability to retain the original fresh.
ness of the tobacco. To quote them:
Mascot is really a 10 cent proposition
at cent expenditure"
To support these arguments, and to
induce the smokers of this city to find
out for themselves that their claims
are justified, the makers of Mascot
have arranged with local dealers to
give free, for few days only, a hand
some Mascot Dog" scarf pin to each
purchaser of cent pouch of Mascot.
These scarf pins are sure to be in
great demand.-(Ady)
