I THINK I first smoked

Craven 'A' because a friend told me that they wouldn's stäin my fingers or lips. But I soon found out that this was not the only good thing about these cigarettes. Their coolness and freedom from throat irritation made a world of difference to my smoking pleasure. Why don't you try-Craven "A" yourself, I know you'll be glad you made the change.

This test depends upon the action of certain substances present in blood from cancer patients which react with the protein of normal bleed.

In making the tests, it is neces- sary to exclude certalu other dis- An orders, such as tuberculosis, which
