Doctor Recommends This Tobacco to Pipe-Smoking Patients There seems to be an unwritten law among pipe-smokers. When one man discovers a way to get more enjoyment out of his pipe, he feels obligated to tell the “pipe-smoking fraternity” about it. So it is not surprising that when Doc- tor Gardiner of Florida found a tobacco that really enabled him to enjoy a pipe for the first time, he made a point of recommending it to all his pipe-smoking patients, You'll find his letter interesting.

[ On your radio—tune in on WRVA, ] Life Beautiful Zapoupi Beckons trout stream, swarming with fish that on the slightest provocation bite like angry wolves. Amusements Y a strange whim of nature, Za- poupi has been rendered entirely free of torrential rains, hurricanes, simoons, earthquakes, water spouts, monsoons, landslides, maelstroms, snags, sunken rocks, cataclysms and holocausts. A situation abounding in medicinal springs seven hundred and thirty-three feet above the clouds constantly swept with the salt tang of the wooing sea breeze offers a haven of peace-fraught security to the shattered spirit. And for the eager sportsman what does Zapoupi not offer? Polo, bad- minton, ice-skating, bear baiting, mountain climbing, hunting for an- tiques and here we go ‘round the mulberry bush. Big game abounds and there is one big game run by the management every Saturday night to which everybody is cordially invited. The white chips are two hundred berries apiece. Many interesting side-trips may be arranged and courtcous guides are always at beck and call. Beck and Call will outfit you for a trip up the impenetrable Mi-asma River through the poisonous tamarisk swamps, tangled haunt of the Singer midgets —an aborigine tribe who use the ninety-foot blowgun with appalling accuracy. The less adventurous may trundle merrily over hard, smooth coral roads in quaint jinrickshas pulled by smiling Letts, crying at intervals their musical call of “Letts go!” Here, hard by the flowering bougain- villea, the towering eucalyptus and the glowering baboon, that mischiev- ous fellow, you may shop from the native pushcarts whose colored and abundant wares dazzle the eye, in- trigue the fancy, and positively smack with smartness. Come, then, to Zapoupi, the lost city of Kublai Khan. You will re- live the perfumed witchery of the Arabian Nights, wild, lawless days, hard, dangerous, thrilling, throbbing with life, studious with the elegance and the stately grace of the court of Marie Antoinette. As a famous British statesman once remarked to Lily Langtry, Zapoupi, the lost city of Alexander the Great, “gets” you. And, as has also been said by some one, if you stand long enough on the corner of Arbuckle Avenue and the Prado, where the Simsam- plutts crosses the Street of the Sing- ing Water-Faucets, everybody in the world will step on your foot.
