A LITTLE STORY BIG Simply Told of a SUCCESS Based on Simple Merit For many years and in many strange corners of the world I had smoked cigarets. None of those made in Turkey, Egypt, Western Europe, or the Orient were just the "real. thing," and not until I learned it from Russians, did I know the true delight of a perfect cigaret smoke. I had a friendly and honest desire to contribute something to the luxury of living, and, believing this Russian Cigaret to be the best in the world, and very far in advance of anything ever offered in America, I began a few months ago to manufacture them in a small way and to furnish them to my friends and their friends. I felt sure that smokers could and would discriminate if given an opportunity. And I guessed right. In the beginning I offered Makaroff Russian Cigarets to the consumer only. Such an insistent appeal came to me, almost at once, from smokers throughout America to place these cigarets within their convenient reach, that I was practically forced, six months ago, to begin to let dealers have them. Never, since dealers were given an opportunity to stock these cigarets, has the factory been anywhere near equal to the demands upon it. Such cigarets cannot be ground out by machinery. The men who make Makaroff Cigarets must be Russians of life-long training-artists at their work. So it is that merit, backed by faith in a discriminating public, has won-again, and our sales have outrun our most strenuous efforts at production. For a time, therefore, our advertising will be discontinued-until we can catch up to our orders-and this is our last announcement for the present. Undoubtedly, we shall advertise again when we shall have solved the problem of adequate production. The quality of our cigarets will not be allowed to deteriorate because the orders are stacked up. This is a connoisseurs' business and will be kept so. In conclusion: The manufacture and distribution of these cigarets has quickly grown from a pleasant pastime for a few friends into a real business and a "main issue," but it has not lost the savor of enthusiasm and good intentions. Ask for these cigarets at high-grade tobacconists. If you cannot get them at once, be patient, and write to us if you really cannot wait. We always keep a small reserve of the boxes of one hundred, packed in cedar, for our direct customers, old and new. We furnish the boxes of one hundred, with or without the distinctive Russian mouthpiece or tube, at $2.50 per hundred-and your money back instantly, without the return of any cigarets, if they fail to satisfy your utmost expectations.
