Use of Snuff
The chief reason for the popular
ity of snuff seems to be that the
powdered, scented tobacco can be
“dipped” (placed between the gums’
and cheeks) by those who cannot
smoke at work. Its users, who
range from social registerites to Ne
gro field hands, also say that it is<
good for colds and sinus disorders.!
“Dipping” is the more prevalent
way of taking snuff (one “dip” lasts
for hours), whereas in earlier days
sniffing it up the nostrils was more
popular. Mere expensive than
smoking tobacco, snuff is put up in
bottles, paper packages, tin cans,
and even calves’ bladders.
very moderate price range. Anoth
er feature is the fact that drapery
and rug patterns and colors are
reproduced in color for the benefit
of the home decorator who wants
help on these important features in
completing a harmonious decorative
effect of utmost simplicity, inexpen
sive to duplicate.
The Style Guide represents a fur
ther step on the part of a leading
paint company to make it easy and
inexpensive to have a lovely home,
correctly and charmingly styled
through the use of color and paint.
