Every time the clock ticks,fifty-eightFatimas are lighted somewhere in the United States. No other high-grade cigarette has so many unchanging, unswerving friends. This shows that men do appreciate cigarettecomfort For, comfort is perhaps the chief reason for Fatima's big popularity—comfort while you smoke, and better yet, after you smoke, even though you may smoke the whole day through.
