9 FUTURE SHADOW5'5
By refraining from over
indulgence, iff you v/ou!d
maintain the modern figure
off fashion
The bewitching charm of soft,
flattering curves . . . the lure of a
graceful, modern figure . . . don’t
spoil it by permi tting your eyes to
be bigger than your stomach. Be
moderate—be moderate in all
things, even in smoking. Eat
healthfully but not immoderately.
Over-indulgence is not commend
ed—-when temptedtoover-indulge,
when your eyes are bigger than
your stomach, reach for a lucky
instead. Coming events cast their
shadows before. Avoid that future
shadow by avoiding over-indul
gence if you would maintain that
modern, enchantingly-rounded
figure.
lucky Strike# the finest Cigarette
you ever smoked, made of the
finest tobacco—The Cream of the
Crop—“IT’S TOASTED.’’ Every
one knows that heat purifies and
so “TOASTING” not only re
moves impurities but adds to the
flavor and improves the taste*
It’s toasted
*Be Moderate!... Don’t jeopardize the modern form by drastic diets, harmful reducing girdles, fake reducing tab
lets or other quack “anti-fat” remedies condemned by the Medical profession! Millions of dollars each year are
wasted on these ridiculous and dangerous nostrums. Be Sensible! Be Moderate! We do not represent that smok
ing 1-ucfcy Strike Cigarettes will bring modern figures or cause the reduction of flesh. We do declare that when
tempted to do yourself too well, if you will “Reach for a lucky” instead, you will thus avoid over-indulgence
in things that cause excess weight and, by avoiding over-indulgence, maintain a modern, graceful form.
