own tobacco. Parr sprinkled his pipe
full with salt to make it last longer

lesurely of smokers and longest Of
livers, made his sailed pipe last an
hour. There is a faint cracking az
the salt burns. but no difference in the
taste And 1t was Lamb who, dis
dainiDg adnltepants, sat opposite and
smoked In furious clouds. When Parr
asked gently how he had attained this
fierce deYterity the reply was. charac
teristically Lambs. "By-by St-toiling
