many have. They fear the craving
will be greater than they can VOL
UNFAIRLY endure. You can make IL
easy to quit the habit by getting
NicotoI tablets and taking them as
directed. The habit really quits you
and its departure is Il pleasure equal
to your former Indulgence.
II you want to know how much
easier IL is to quit the habit with
the aid of Nicotol than without it.
go twenty-four hours without to-
bacco and note what an effort it
costs you. Then begin using tobac-

smoking or chewing for a day and

sire to resume. At least your de-
sire will be greatly diminished and
