Dr. Alexander Graham Hell tells the

He ought te knew about talking. He's
responsible for R let of it. He invented
the telephone.

Mere and mere
enrietta Cigars
are being made and smoked
every day
THE largest independent cigar manufactur
ing concern in the United States is Otte
Eisenlohr & Bres, of Philadelphia
It is also the largest concern of any kind
making only two brands of cigars
&
These two facts are indisputable
testimony te the public's apprecia
tion of the value there is in the two
Eisenlohr brands Henrietta and
Cince cigars.
Henrietta and Cince cigars have
been favorites for years. The in
crease in. the demand for them has
always been steady and continuous.
Today millions of smokers all ever
the United States are regularly
buying them.
Henrietta and Cince cigars are pro
duced along straight manufacturing
lines. The materials, the workman
ship and the methods of manufac
ture are all the best as proved se by
our seventy years of successful ex
perience. That is why Henrietta and Cince
smokers are calling for mere of
these cigars than we can make
despite our constantly increasing
production.
But here in Philadelphia, our own home city, we are
doing everything we can se that our thousands of old
friends and the many new ones that are coming te us
every day may have their favorite cigars for Christmas.
