FACTORY.

"SPECIAL BLEND" WHILE YOU WAIT.

[UNITED PRESS. 1

A one-man tobacco factory which may take rank as the most unusual in the world has been set up out- side the Chienmen Gate in Peping by a wrinkled old Chinese artisan with a perpetual smile.

The old man is an employer, too. He engages a number of Chinese- children, boys and girle, to search the streets of Peping for discarded cigarette butts, his sole source of supply. The children pounce “on cigarette ends as soon as they are thrown away, and exclaim joyfully when some improvident smoker throws away the larger part of his cigarette.

The one-man factory does not conceal its methods. The old man sits cross legged at the side of the street, and will make his special blend" cigarettes for you while you wait. Everything is done in the open air.

"Since then," he writes, "I have felt idatively like ten men and a boy, especially the boy.” Small wonder that he is enthusiastic and recommends Sanatogen.
