    Herbert Taryton. I couldn't remember it. Minor brand. In 
their radio ads the announcer would shout "Herbert Taryton, 
Taryton, Taryton" a sort of vocal shaking of a fist at the 
listener. They should have given up. Someone I knew smoked them, 
they tasted like old newspaper. A google search will find 
pictures of both old (green) and new (white) LS packages. The 
green ones probably disappeared about when I was born (had 
nothing to do with it).
