r manufacture cigarets primarily 

 because I am a cigaret smoker. I am 

 not trying- simply to make something: 

 to sell. I am making something to 

 smoke. My success would indicate 

 that American smokers were ready 

 for just that change from the "sell- 

 ing" to the "smoking" point of view. 

 I consider that my selling success has 

 been due mainly to the fact that I 

 have left selling out of consideration, 

 except as a natural and healthy 

 result of making good on the smoke. 

 Simple recipe for success, isn't it? It 

 is simple, but it works. I never knew 

 it to fail. It's so simple that I often 

 wonder why more people don't try it. 

 I've smoked cigarets off and on for 

 more than twenty years. I smoked 

 American cigarets long before the 

 more exotic Oriental kinds were 

 heard of in this country. Until eight 

 years ago I flirted with about every 

 new cigaret that came along, always hoping to 

 find one I could stick to, because I have always 

 preferred a cigaret to any other form of smoke. 

 A good trial always convinced me that I was in wrong. 

 Eight years ago I came in contact with a number 

 of Russian officials. They smoked Russian cigarets. 

 I smoked with them. Here at last was something different. I begun 

 importing them for my own use — five and ten thousand at a 

 time. But I couldn't keep them on hand. My friends wanted 

 them too badly. 

 I went on in this way for two years, smoking as many as I wanted (when I had them) 

 without feeling the slightest effect except one of exceeding satisfaction with my smoke 

 — never any of that "craving" before smoking and "depression" afterward, with which 

 most cigaret smokers are familiar. I investigated the Russian cigaret industry pretty 

 thoroughly. I went after reasons — and I found them. I imported the Russian blends 

 in bulk and experimented with the making of cigarets. I studied the cigaret industry 

 in this country. I finally acquired from my Russian manufacturers all rights for 

 America in their blends, trade-marks, etc., and their foreman to start my factory. 



I have been making Makaroff Russian Cigarets in this country now for six years. 

 Our principal difficultyhas been in getting together enough Russian workmen to 

 make enough of these cigarets to make them a national proposition. But now we have 

 them. 



From the day we started to make them to this, the cigarets have never varied, profit or no 

 profit. I always have believed that if we produced the quality the public would produce 

 the sales. And that faith has been justified. You will always find in 



MAKAROFF RUSSIAN CIGARETS 



a quality that corresponds with the straightforwardness of the advertising. We have now introduced the goods so 

 thoroughly to dealers that you can get them almost anywhere in the best cigar stores, hotels, cafes, dining cars, 

 etc. Any dealer who hasn't got them can get them quickly from his local jobber. If he doesn't want to, we will 

 supply you promptly, by mail, on receipt of the dealer's name and address, or simply his address, so that we may 

 investigate his reason for refusal. 



If you do not like these cigarets at the first trial, remember that they are mighty different from what you are 

 accustomed to, and that the difference is all in your favor. Take time to get a little used to them and you will find 

 out just what we mean. 



Makaroffs are absolutely pure, clean, sweet, mild tobacco, untouched by anything whatever to give them artificial 

 flavor, sweetness, or to make them burn. You will find that you can smoke as many as you want of them without 

 any of the nervouness, depression or "craving" that follows the use of ordinary cigarets. 



Pure tobacco won't hurt you. You may not be used to it, and you may not like the first Makaroff, but you'll like 

 the second one better, and you'll stick to Makaroffs forever if you once give them a fair chance. We have built 

 this business on quality in the goods and intelligence in the smoker — a combination that simply can't lose. We 

 waited quite a while, but it has won in our case and won big. The result is, that 



"This is a Makaroff year — nearly everybody smokes them now" 



Makaroffs are 15 cents and a quarter in boxes of ten. $1.50 to $6.00 for 100's.

The man who has neglected to plan his spring planting will feel 

 like sending out the equivalent of the wireless distress signal when 

 he awakens some fine morning and finds the air balmy, the soil in 

 fine condition and all his neighbors gardening. We are especially 

 equipped to take care of the order of the-man-in-a-huny who forgot 

 to send it in sooner. If he can wait a few days longer, we'd like 

 for him to just write for

But if he doesn't wish to waste a minute, let him send us, by mail 

 or wire or wireless, remittance and list of trees, shrubs and plants 

 he wants. We'll get the goods back to him by express, or freight, 

 as he prefers, in double-quick time, and guarantee satisfaction.
