hailed without danger, although the cigar
smoker rarely, if ever, makes inhalation
practice. He tastes the full, rich flavor
of the finest tobaccos-and is satisfied.
Therefore cigar smoking never degenerates
into nervous habit. There is no craving,
no hurried lighting of one from the butt
of another. Puff for puff the average
cigar smoker smokes but half as much as
menwedded to tobacco in its other forms.

smoke cigars exclusively for one week.
To really test cigars with justice to
yourself and to cigars, we suggest the
test be made with La Palinas. Since they
are America largest selling high grade
cigars-over a million day-you can
smoke them, confident that they will
please you.
The sensational success of La Palma re-
suits from an exclusive and secret blend
which combines for the first time in one
cigar, an extreme mildness with a rare
richness of both taste and fragrance.

THROAT troubles SO prevalent amongst
4 American Smokers, irritation of bron-
chial mucous membrane, arc due to two
causes. Firstly, the burning, drying effect
of bot tobacco smoke upon the tender
tissues of the nose and throat. Secondly,
the presence of Furfural and Acrolein,
twin irritants found in the smoke of
tobaccos cured and favored with GER
tain foreign substances that must be
regarded as adulterants.
1t is these two substances (Furfural and
Acrolein) which are the prime cause of
coughs, overwrought nerves, decreased
vitality and other disorders which result
from the indulgence in tobacco other than
the cigar.
Furfural and Acrolein are not present
in cigar smoke, since cigar tobacco is a
natural product in its natural state. 1t is
not artiheially cured or favored. In

drawn by the Iona Stable after pulling
up lame Saturday, assured the event
of that.
This years classic, in the opinion of
those who follow the races, is an ex-
tremely open event, with large field
going to the post to contest for the
worth, $4,000 going to the winner.
Essare, The Nut, Minotaur and Grey
Coat, all of which have been showing
we'll in the season SO far, are certain
to be given heavy backing. Grey Coat
has beaten a field of Preakr eSs aSpi-
rants, while The Nut is adjT.dged better
than DR.. Freeland, despite the fact the
latter led him to the wire Saturday in
a race which saw six of the PreakneSs
eligibles in action. Essa1e, taken to
New York tracks after the close of the
Bowie campaign. won the Wood Stakes,
leading Annapolis, Upset Lad, Brown
