FLUE CURING IMPROVES TOBACCO LIKE
ROASTING IMPROVES GREEN
Rue Curing Develops the Stimulating Aroma and
Found In Schnapps that Satisfies Tobacco Hunger
There are three ways used by far-
for curing and preparing their
tobacco for the market; namely, sun
cured, air cured and flue cured. The
old and cheap way is called air cured;
the later discovery and improved way
is called flue cured. In flue-curing
the tobacco is taken from the field
and suspended over intensely hot
flues in houses especially built to re-
the heat, and there kept in the
proper temperature until this curing
process in the tobacco the
stimulating taste and fragrant aroma
found in Schnapps just as
green coffee is made fragrant and
stimulating by the roasting process.
Only choice selections of this ripe,
juicy flue cured leaf, grown in the
famous Piedmont country, where the
best tobacco grows, are used in
Schnapps and other brands
of high grade, flue cured tobaccos.
Hundreds of imitation brands are
on sale that look like Schnapps; the
outside of the imitation plugs of to-
is flue cured, but the inside is j
filled with cheap, flimsy, heavily i
sweetened air cured tobacco; one
chew of Schnapps will satisfy tobacco
hunger longer than two chews of
tobacco.
Expert tests prove that this flue
cured tobacco, grown in the famous
Piedmont region, requires and takes
less sweetening than any other kind, j
and has a wholesome, stimulating,
satisfying effect on chewers. If the I
kind of tobacco you are chewing don't
satisfy, more than the mere habit of
expectorating, stop fooling yourself
and chew Schnapps tobacco.
Schnapps is like the tobacco chew-
formerly bought costing from
to per pound; Schnapps is sold
at per pound in cuts, strictly

There is a very considerable
complaint that the express com-

fault in collecting charges on ex-
press matter at the delivery end
of the line, where the charges
have prepaid at the starting
point. This thing occurs
very often that there is a grow-
i iV ii feeling that there is

How many
stances there may be where pi
paid charges are collected at the
delivery end and the double col-
is never found out, no-
body can tell. The frequency
of the cases where it is found
out, is sufficient to show that
the fault is a great one and
growing one. If the express
companies themselves don't stop
this fault, it is important that
penalty laws shall be made
which will lose them more
money than they make by the
practice.- Charlotte Chronicle.
