Fair enough! That's all Chesterfield wants.
That’s all Chesterfield could ask for and
does ask for—a trial. *
‘‘Promises fill no sack. ’’ After all, it’s what
you get out of a smoke that counts. And what
you get out of Chesterfield, or anything else
for that matter, depends on what goes in.
Better tobaccos don’t grow than the tobaccos
that go into Chesterfield. Ripe. Sweet. Aged
and cured for two years under the watchful
care of expert chemists.
Better cigarette paper ca 11 ’t be bought. Taste
less. Odorless. Pure!
Sanitary' factories. Cleanliness in.every
step of the process. A purer cigarette than
Chesterfield can’t be made.
And the package! Absolutely moisture
proof. Sealed tight—yet the simplest thing in
the world to open. And attractive to look at.
They’re milder—they taste better—they’re
pure — They Satisfy!
