New Cigarette
"a new blend
10 year development resulting remarkable discovery.
delight critical smokers Now sale everywhere

At time when cigarettes have apparently
reached their limit of perfection comes a
surprising discovery, new-type cigarette,
very distinctive.
As all men know, wonderful progress has
been made in cigarette making. There are
many excellent brands, many favorites.
Blending has reached an art.
To the credit, yet despair of experts, no
outstanding achievement has seemed pos
sible lately. Each smoker has become con-
tent with his favorite cigarette no one
has been expecting an entirely different, un-
usual blend.
But suddenly out of perfection, as 10
wear recompense, comes wonder-blend,
exclusive, superhne.

STRIKE TO CONTINUE.

LOS ANGELES. July 16.-The
strike of the marine transport work
ers' branch of the Industrial Workers
of the World at Los Angeles harbor,
originally planned for only five days
as a protest at the trials and contin-
uations of alleged I. w. WIS on
charges of criminal syndicalism, will
be continued indefinitely. according
to plans announced at meeting Of
striking longshoremen in the harbor
district, the police said.
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1923-07-16

The ordinary process is but single blend
ing, which now seems crude. Yet for years
experts have considered one blending suffi-
Gent, and have searched elsewhere for re-
fnements.
In Blue Boar we blend the two American
tobaccos separately. Likewise the five Turk
ish. Then we give the Latakia from Egypt
a mellowing treatment. Each tobacco de-
velops its finest characteristics. A third and
final blending insures rare and distinctive
combination, such as you've never known
before. The old way never could bring such
perfection.
1t is costlier, slower process-but worth
it as you'll agree. The result of this simple
discovery makes all the difference in the
world-an entirely new taste, a refinement
of all refnements.

Its pedigree

We call this new cigarette Blue Boar be-
cause it is developed from Americas favorite
fine tobacco, Blue Boar Pipe Mixture.
For 10 years its tobaccos have been the
finest obtainable-eight rare types of the
choicest American, Turkish and Egyptian.
Here was no chance for betterment.
The secret of this new-type cigarette is
in newly discovered method of blending.
This may sound commonplace to men who
have felt that the limit of refinement had
been reached, but you will be as surprised
as others when you smoke your first pack
of Blue Bears.

FAITH IN THE
FUTURE AND YOURSELF.

The modern business structure
is builded on a foundation of cred
it. Not only is this true of bust
ness, but it is true of every indi-
vidual, whether he be lawyer, doc
tor, laborer or farmer.
The salaried man asks and re-
ceives credit from payday to pay
day. Mercantile business requests
and secures credit from one period
to another. The farmer is fl
nanced from one crop season to
another.
Credit is the life blood, which
coursing through the veins, keeps
the heart of business pumping
hour by hour, year in and year
year out.
Pessimism, reckless SPEEDING, or
carelessness in the care of credit
will wreck the structure.
BILLY" Jones, as he is affection
ately known to his fellow Kiwan-
ians, yesterday plead for conser-
vative spending, courage and de-
sire to serve ones fellows who
have lost heart.
Things amy be a bit hard this
year." he said 'but we will pull
through-we always have, and this
year is nothing like 1898 or 1897
or 1914"
1t was splendid counsel he gave
when he plead for less pleasure and
more hard work. For courage and
less pessimistic talk.
The merchant cannot credit
unless he has credit. Until the Gus
toner pays, the merchant can not
pay Carelessness in paying the
merchant, unnecessary delays, fail
ure to be prompt, makes it i'm
possible for the merchant to meet
his obligations, and in destroying
his credit we destroy his ability to
grant credit.
Spend wisely, live courageously,
with a smile for every one. Your
shoulder to the wheel, with an in
finite faith in the future and your
self, and there's little to worry
over.

The Halifax County Bankers
associations also urged farmers
not to increase their cotton acre
age at the expense of food and
forage crops, and that every
thing be done tO keep down the
elects of the weevil.
We often think of the farm as
a great department store, where
most anything NAL be carried if
there's money in it.
The smart department store
store buyer, looks ahead. If he
thinks the public wants q certain
article, he buys it and places it on
sale. If he believes that an ar
ticle he has been carrying will not
sell another season, this he dis
continues.
The farmer may be able to sell
potatoes this year and there may
be no market next.
1t is a question of looking
ahead"

Some apprehension as to the

when farmers from different por-
tions of the county brought in
specimens of cotton which as they
supposed, had been attacked by
the Texas boil weevil. Mr.. G. S.

worms. Mr.. R. j. Perry and other
farmers also showed samples of cot
ton similarly tested.

am peaceful kind of chap
Who Jumps bit at thunder-clap;
I've never mixed in bar room brawl,
I've never been in scrap at all;
And yet l weary of tales and books
Describing life in the country hooks;
Or business stories of lads who rise
By sheer good conduct and enterprise.
The sort of yarn that is sweet and quiet
Is we'll enough as a. steady diet,
But now and then 1 prefer to read
A yarn of terror and craft and greed
With lots of murders and sudden death
To make me shudder and hold my breath.
And scoundrels STEPPED to the eyes in crime,
Who sure do give me bully time
Bring on the story where teeth are CRASHED
Where pistols crackle and knives are flashed,
Where villains chortle with evil rage
And bioodshed trickles down every page,
Where virtue triumphs, but not until
I've drunk much slaughter and had my fill
u plot and counterpart, brawl and fight
With gun and poison and dynamite.
