56 Tobacco that says| 2 “Merry Christmas” to pipe-smokers Each year a number of Edgeworth Club members make a practice of distributing their favorite tobacco among friends as a Christmas remembrance. In some cases Edgeworth happens to be the recipient's “steady” tobacco. In other cases the gift serves as an in- troduction to Edgeworth — in fact, we know of instances where it has created a rabid new mem- ber of the Edge- worth Club. To supply the gift spirit to Edgeworth at Christmas time the mak- ers have provided ap- propr iate wrappings for the 16 - ounce glass humidor Jar and the 8- ounce tin. Each contains Edgeworth Ready-Rubbed. Each is packed in a good-looking decorated gift carton printed in colors. Prices—$1.65 for the 16-ounce jar: The 8-ounce tins are 75c each. Please ask your tobacco dealer for the Edgeworth Christmas packages. If he will not supply you, we gladly offer the following service to you: Send us $1.65 for each 16-ounce jar, and 75c for each 8-ounce tin to be shipped, also a list of the names and addresses of those you wish to remember, together with your personal greeting card for each friend. We will gladly attend to sending the Christmas Edgeworth to your friends, all delivery charges prepaid. For yourself —tt’s just possible that you are not personally acquainted with Edgeworth. If that is so, send your name and address to Larus & Brother Company. We shall be glad to send you free samples— generous helpings both of Edgeworth Plug Slice and Edgeworth Ready-Rubbed. Smoke a few pipefuls and judge for your- self whether or not you wish to become a permanent member of the Edgeworth Club. Edgeworth is sold in various sizes to suit the needs and means of all purchasers. Both Edgeworth Plug Slice and Edgeworth Ready-Rubbed are packed in small pocket- size packages, in handsome humidors hold- ing a pound, and also in several handy in- between sizes, For the free samples, kindly address Larus & Brother Company, 63 South 21st Street, Richmond, Va.

To Retail Tobacco Merchants: If your jobber cannot supply you with Edgeworth, Larus & Brother Company will gladly send you prepaid by parcel post a one or two- dozen carton of any size of Edgeworth Plug Slice or Edgeworth Ready-Rubbed for the same price you would pay the jobber. + LIFE - OLISH ONT Mro ARIES What Cheer ? A famous London revue artist has one particular béte noirc—the late-comer who forges his way to his stall in the middle of a song. One evening he was particularly in- censed by a gentleman who ploughed his way through the front row and_thor- oughly upset the performance for a few moments. The singer waited until the offender had found his seat, and then remarked sarcastically, “I hope you en- joyed your coffee, sir!" “Yesh, thanks,” came the unexpected, jovial retort, “and the Benedictine ash well, ole cock.” —Sporting and Dramatic Nets, A Small World, After All The professor was illustrating to his class the remarkable smallness of the world, “Gentlemen,” he said, “let me tell you of my own experience. While in Paris last summer I met a man from my home town. I met him again in Venice, still again in Alexandria, and this year, while visiting the Yellowstone, I encountered him for the fourth time.” A disgusted voice broke in: “Aw, why didn’t you pay him what you owed him in the first place?” —Stanford Chaparral.
