ot so long ago practically all
cigarettes were made by hand
Now, Chesterfield* arc made by high-speed machines
thai turn out 750 cigarettes a minute, and the
cigarettes are practically not touched by hand.
BY the use of long steel ovens
—drying machines of the
most modern type—and by age-
ing the leaf tobacco for 30
months - like wine is aged—
Chesterfield tobacco is milder
and tastes better.

pure cigarette paper—
the best made — is used for
Chesterfield.
And to make sure that every-
thing that goes into Chesterfield
is just right* expert chemists
test all materials that are used
in any way in the manufacture.
Chesterfields are made and
packed in clean, up-to-date fac-
tories, where thfc air is changed
every AV2 minutes. The mois-
ture-proof package, wrapped in
Du Pont's No. 300 Cellophane

just as if you went by the fac-
tory door.
