Dear Sirs:
Two years ago last winter I went
into the Red Lake gold holds
Canada It was a tough trail from
'Judson, over 110 miles of snow • and
ice There were route. of U 4 on the
trail going in, and frequently at night
when seated around a big camp
some one would ask me for a pipeful
of Edgeworth These C..nachan buys
sure like our Edgeworth.
In four nooks' tune I ran nut of
Edgem ortb, I nos glad to get 'most
any old tobacco.
One day, boa ever, I dropped in to
Dad Bron n's tent, a 72-ycar-old pros
pector, and noting a can of Edgenurth
on an improvised table, It icl, them 150
milts from the "steel," 1 period Op at
once, saying, "DA, plum nut of
tobacco—how's chances fur a pipe
"Help yourself," he said. :So
pulling my limy duty tope front my
pocket, I loaded it unit Edges, arch,
packing it in so tightly that I couldn't
get the least bit of a dr..%
I extused myself for a moment, and
stepped outside to ream c about three
pax:tuts to put in my pouch
stepped out, saying, "You're worse
than any Stotchinan I es er sau "
Then I confessed. I told Min what
happened to my Edgeworth—that I
was Just dying for a smote, and lie
understood right away He said,
"Boy, Edgeworth is mighty scone in
these parts, but I reckon 1 can spare
it hat's left of that can Help yourself"
You can just het your last mac]
that I truarded this Edgeworth with
extreme tare - until I got hash to the
"steel."
Yours very truly,
