They want people to think that they are smoking a 10c. cigar, but for themselves they are willing to save half the price when they know they are getting just as good quality.

The fact that many of the brands of 10c. cigars are not selling as freely as they used to can perhaps be accounted for from the great sale that the CHILDS is having, METROPOLITAN TOBACCO CO., Distributers.
