Mr. Chadwick had never tried a Park Drive before although he’d seen them being smoked almost everywhere. It took just two minutes for him to decide that perhaps he'd been missing a good thing. If he continues to smoke them he'll be in good company. A lot of smokers are getting the taste for Park Drive. And oncethey do,they seldom find other cigarettes as enjoyable.
