Tue resson why “Myrtle Navy” tobacco has taken so strong a hold upon the emoking community is because it is the genuine article. No man has a desire to smoke anything els» than tobacco. Even opium is not emoked for the pleasure of smoking it but for its soporific eficcts. The desire for tobacco is, of course, best satisfied by getting the pure article, and when to this is added the finest quality the satisfaction is complete. These two things are combined in the ‘‘Myrtle Navy.”
