The King of Smokers.

Kieas, the merchant of Rotterdam,
was called the King of the Smokers
from his devotion to the gentle weed,
and he had right regal funeral.
BY the terms of his will every smoker
who chose to attend it was presented
with 10 lbs OF tobacco and two Dutch
pipes, on which were engraved the
name, arms, and date of the decease
of the testator. Ali his guests we're
invited to be careful to keep their
pipe alight during the funeral cere-
mony, aud to empty their ashes into
the grave. His oak coffin was lined
with the cedar Of his old Havana
cigar boxes, and a packet Of old
Dutch tobacco was placed at the
foot of his coffin. His favourite
pipes was laid by his side along with
a box of matches, as we'll as a flint

expressed an opinion that "there was
no knowing what might happen"
