He avoids tea and coffee, and when he wants something with a “kick” in it, drinks orange juice. “I keep in physical condition by hard work in the open,” he states, a fact that is obvious to those who know this writer of outdoor stories. and U.

No fuss or muss. No fluttering to the floor in a waste of time, temper and tobacco. That’s because Prince Albert is crimp-cut and stays put in the papers while you're rolling it. Ideal makin’s, Men!
