FOODS TASTE BETTER COOKED
TOBACCO TASTES BETTER
TOASTED

Since the day of the caveman. who
liked his meat raw, civilization has
learned a lot about the scientific treat
1nent of the things we eat.
Naturally none of US would now
prefer to have our meat raw, our po-
tatoes as they come from the ground,
our coffee unroasted.
And naturally follows the great dis
covery recently made by The Aneri-
can Tobacco Co.-that tobacco tastes
better TOASTED!
This wonderful new idea-sinple
like all great inventions-was first
used in producing the famous LUCKY
STRIKE Cigarette-made Of toasted
Burley tobacco.
Burley has a mellow flavor, entirely
different from the tobacco usually
used for cigarettes. 1t is pipe to-
bacco andLUCKY STRIKE Cigarettes
