MODESTY PRAISED. “I have always admired the modest tone in which you touch on the merits of Edgeworth tobacco.” writes Mr K. F. Chapman to Barlow' Bros., Christchurch, N.Z. distributors of Edgeworth. “You never advertise it as the best pipe smoke on earth—as in fact, I believe it to be.” Barlow Bros, do not claim that Edgeworth is the right tobacco for everyone—pipe tastes vary so much. They base their advertising upon the many unsolicited eulogiums they receive from enthusiastic Edgeworth smokers. They are always pleased naturally, to receive these, and invite Edgeworth smokers to send in their experiences so that same can be published in the Edgeworth archives. — (Advt.)
