(fywrnj Cigars FIRST let us make plain three facts: in During the past few years the prices of Havana and Sumatra tobaccos have steadily advanced. The profit on Robt. Burns Cigar has attimes fallen distinctly below a safe business mar gin. This margin of profit has at times approached the vanishing point 2 At no time have we com promised in the slightest the quality of Robt Burns Cigar. To this formula we stand committed: Full, long-leaf Havana filler of fine selec tion, toned to agreeable mildness through our special process of curing and wrapped " in the finest ob tainable Sumatra leaf. 3 Our latest purchases of Havana and Sumatra leaf for Robt. Burns were made with our usual care and after the widest possible survey of market condi tions. Yet for that leaf we had to pay much higher prices than ever before It is our belief that the smoker of Robt. Burns would much prefer to pay a slight advance in price rather than face the slightest let-down in the quality of his cigar. J,o maintain that quality it has become imperative that we add 2c apiece to the retail price of Robt. Burns Cigar.- The price of Robt. Burns Invincible is now changed to 15c; the new price of Longfellow is 17c. There arc no indications in sight at the present to warrant a decline in the price of Havana and Suma tra leaf tobacco. When such time arrives, we promise that the smokers of Robt. Burns Cigars will receive the bene fit at the earliest possible moment 1 NATIONAL, BRANDS NEW YORK CITY INC J .

Henry Ford says: "The war is over and it is time war prices were over. There is no sense or wisdom in trying to maintain an artificial standard of values. For the best interests of all, it is time a real, practical effort was made to bring the business of the country and the life of the country down to regular pre-war standards."
