marized the stimulating AAUW

A PLEASANT PRESENT like cartons of Luckies can make

So the guy who gives loads of Luckies, of course, is a

the taste of mild, good-tasting tobacco that’s TOASTED
to taste even better—and he knows others appreciate
it, too. How ’bout you? Give loads of Luckies yourself!
