20,800 feet. Ship won't go any higher but you'll make a new record from here! Here I go! Marie
lands 15 miles away. Congratulations, Marie__A four-mile jump must be a big strain on the nerves.
Yes, long parachute jumps are rough on the nerves. But I dodge nerve tension by letting
up__lighting up a Camel whenever I can. I find Camels so soothing!
(left) When busy, strenuous days put your nerves on the spot, take a tip from the wire fox terrier
pictured here. Despite his almost humanly complex nerve system, he quickly halts in the midst of
any activity, to relax---ease his nerves. So often, we humans ignore this instinctive urge to break
tension. We may even take pride in our will to drive on relentlessly, forgetting that tiring nerves
may soon be jittery nerves! Yet the welfare of your nerves is really vital to your success, to your
happiness. Make it your pleasant rule to pause regularly--to Let Up---Light Up A Camel. Start
today--add an extra measure of comfort to your smoking with Camel's finer, costlier tobaccos.
Costlier Tobaccos Camels are made from finer, More Expensive Tobaccos. . .Turkish and Domestic. Let
Up__Light Up A Camel! Smokers find Camel's Costlier Tobaccos are soothing to the nerves.
