SMOKED DRY PIPE.

The lost pipa of a Hun raider was
found in the garden Of a house in al
Essex town over which a German air
ship passed. A portion Of the stem
has been cut and flattened and upon
it is written in indelible ink, Karl
Werner, 1313S-A. G." The under side
of the bowl and the stem have
been notched eleven times and on
the side of the mouthpiece arc more
tches. The finder of the pipe said,
There was no smell Of tobacco a.
bout the pipe and it had not appar--
emily been recently smoked. 1t is
possible that it was used by the
owner as a dry pipe as the mouth
piece shows signs of hard biting.
The notches cut in the stem may
record the number of times the air
man had flown with it in his mouth"
smoking" dry pipe is not unusual,
especially would lit be the CASES in
a Zeppelin in which a spark from
a. lighted pipe might cause the ships
destruction.
