Description
Full color 9″ x 13 1/2″ ad that urges you to smoke Camel Cigarettes whenever you are having a busy day because it will Aid Your Digestion. The ad has several pictures of “The Varied Activities of Mrs. Louis Swift, Jr.“ and the text explains how she can go from being a Sportswoman to Formal Dining Out with no digestion problems. She, and other distinguished women who are listed in the ad, all feel that the benefits of Camel Cigarettes make this possible. It explains how, when she is giving a formal dinner, she will “always allow enough time between courses so that everyone may smoke a Camel through.” It also claims that “Smoking Camels promotes the natural flow of the fluids necessary for good digestion. Alkalinity increases. Tension eases. A comforting ‘lift’ follows”. With logic like this I can’t see why elementary schools didn’t have the lunch ladies passing Camel cigarettes out at lunch rather than just dropping their ashes into the stew.
