Nix on the
“Parley-Voo'stuff!
A FRIEND of mine.
WHO COULDN’T speak.
A WORD of French.
WENT TO Paris.
AND THE first time.
HE HAD to get.
A HAIRCUT and shave.
HE PRACTICED an hour.
MAKING SIGNS.
IN THE?looking glass.
SO THE French barber.
WOULD UNDERSTAND him.
AND THEN he went in.
AND WIGGLED his fingers
THROUGH HIS hair.
AND STROKED his chin.
AND THE barber grinned.
AND FINISHED the job.
THEN MY friend thought
* * *
►
HE’D BE polite.
SO H E gave the barber.
AN AMERICAN cigarette.
WHICH THE barber smoked.
AND MY friend pointed.
TO HIS mouth.
AND SAID “Likee voo.”
AND THE barber roared.
AND SAID “You BET.
I USED to smoke 'em.
WHEN I worked.
IN INDIANAPOLIS.
AND BELIEVE me.
THEY SATISFY!”
HERE’S a smoke that talks in any
language and needs no interpre
ter. Light up a .Chesterfield, draw
deep—-and more plainly than words
your smile will tell the world “They
Satisfy'’. It’s the blend that does it—
and you can’t get “Satisfy” any
where except in Chesterfields, for
that blend can’* be copied!
