A SOLDIER BOY SINGS 



"i want tobacco just as much as band- 

 ages and socks, 

 So drop your contributions in my old to- 

 bacco boxl" 

 Send 25 cents and we will forward a "com- 

 fort package" of tobacco to some soldier or 

 sailor at the front— enough to keep him in tobac- 

 co for a week. Or send $1— it keeps a fighting 

 man happy for a month. Tobacco is the only 

 thing that cheers the soldier boy through the 

 dreary hours in the trenches. He'll probably 

 send you a post card in ackowledgment — a war 

 souvenir you will treasure. Send your "Smokes" 

 at once — he needs them badly. Every cent 

 contributed goes for tobacco to our soldiers and 

 sailors abroad.
