The New York Clipper (April 1914)

24 THE NEW YORK CLIPPER. April li MORNING IN THE BOIS with scent of violet and tang of fresh young leaves in the air is always enhanced by an after-breakfast cigarette. And the cigarette is hand-made. For your Parisian is a lover-of-living; his cigarette is a part of his joie-de-vivre. And for that cigarette to be perfect he puts his favorite tobacco into his favorite paper. (Pronounced- REE-LAH-KROY) FAMOUS CIGARETTE PAPERS are being used the world over by fashionable men. In any company—ladies not excepted—it has become the mode to make up your own cigarettes, using Riz La Croix papers. These papers are supreme because they are the perfect prod- uct of decade after decade of experimentation ._ by the manufacturers of the La ^<^^\ *\.C Croix family. Craftsmanship cannot form a light- er, stronger, purer, more satisfac- tory paper than Riz La Croix.
