TRAIN AHOY! Before railways adopted the telegraph in 1851, waiting passengers never knew when a train would come along. Enterprising stationmaaters kept “lookouts” seated on high poles to watch the horizon for the smoke that foretold the locomotive’s coming. Beyond doubt, many lonely vigils were brightened by Dill’s Best in the pipes of these human semaphores. Dill’s Best is the world’s oldest tobacco and regarded by many smokers as the world’s best. First perfected in 1848 it has maintained its popularity along the’quality route until to-day, by reason of the enjoyment and satisfaction it gives, it has millions of devotees throughout tiie world. —Advt.
