BIG INCREASE IN SALES;

Twist Ito chaw) and Manning's
Crumbs Ito smoke) of course,
which is the product of Old
Field Tobacco Works, w. E.
Gatlin, proprietor, of this city.
Yes-sir-ree! We have it from
safe sources that over half the
stores in the city of Paducah,
KY, are handling these popular
Paris brands of tobacco. The
Old Field plant on East Wash
ington street is kept busy early
and late putting up and filling
the big punches of orders
brought in by each mail.
So firmly grated into popular
favor of chewers and smokers Of
the weed is this fine old Henry
county product that it is not
necessary, so the management
informs US, to send a salesman
to a purchaser more than one
time.
Merit will win every time, and
that these have the genuine
merit there is no doubt i hence
the marvelously rapid increase
in sales over a broad territory
covering four states.
