The ideal cherished by Carranza
could not be more praiseworthy, but,
at the same time, nothing could be
more absurd and dangerous than the

So easy to drop Cigarette,

No-ToBac has helped thousands to
break the costly, nerve-shattering to-

longing for smoke or chew, just
place a harmless No-To-Bac tablet in
your mouth instead. All desire stops.
Shortly the habit is completely broken
and you are better off mentally, phys
ically, financially. It's so easy, so
simple. Get a box of NoTo-Bac and
if it doesn't release you from all
craving for tobacco in any form, your
druggist will refund your money
without question. No-To-Bac is made
by the owners of Cascarets; there
