A LATE PIPE STORY
1t Has Become Quite Fashion
able to Smoke Pipes.
Eastern Man Says the Kentucky Corn
Cob is on the Decline
Now.
THE LATEST PIPE IN USE

The corn cob pipe is losing popular
ity with Kentuckians, according to l..
b. Block, known as the Pipe King, "
who is interested in a big Philadelphia
concern. While in Louisville q few
days ago he said:
1.-THE latest thing in pipes Is made
OF olive wood, and has u flavor pecu.
liarly delightful The wood is i'm
ported from Italy, through Leghorn,
in rough blocks. l have seen one
piece which weighed 2,200 pounds,
but such large sizes are rare.
1.-THE olive wood pipes are made in
unique styles and shapes, and have
proved widely popular Ten years
ago, you know, the man who was seen
on ne street with pipe in his mouth
was considered rude. Today the Gus.
tom is stylish. The range is due
largely to college boys, who will have
shape the better they like them-and
who insist on smoking them every
where.
1.-THE change In the attitude toward
the pipe is we'll illustrated in the cafes
of the large cities. A short time ago
the smoking of pipes was expressly ia
be oed in such places, even though ci-
CARS were allowed. But you never
find q swell restaurant today which
prohibits them.
1.-THE corn cob, that great hobby of
Kentuckians, is slowly losing ground
though few still cling to it. Its up.
pearance is the chief thing against it
there's no question that it makes a
delightful smoke. But handsomer
pipes can be bought for so little now.
sdays that the corn cob is relegated
TO the background.
1.-THE use Of pipes is growing among
the better classes. The manufacture
Of them Is still in its infancy, al
though the output has doubled in the
past five years, and will do the same
thing, think, IN the next five years.
The causes OF this are that they are
cheaper, and, above all, healthier, as
many prominent physicians have tes-
titled.
american tobacoos are smoked al
most wholly in pipes although a few
affect Turkish as fad. But the Amer
leans are the greatest blenders In the
world, and their products really can't
be beat.
"In many of the Eastern cities it
has become fad among wealthy wo-
men to make . collection Of ole ana
peculiar pipes. A collection of them
il considered quite an addition to any
room, and the grester the variety Of
shapes the better"
