Pipe Built Like q Cornet.

A tobacco pipe Of unusual design
has been invented by Warren Murray
Baechtel of Hagerstown, Md. Every
pipe smoker knows that the longer the
stem of his pipe the cooler will be the
smoke. Pipes with stems few feet
long have been in use in different
countries for many years, but their
awkward length precluded their use
outside of the house. The inventor of
the pipe circumvented the difficulty by
coiling the stem of the pipe like the
tube of a cornet or signal horn. The
coils are connected at their lower end
to form dripping chamber for receiv-
ing the saliva which accumulates in
the stem. Each coil has an ;ndepend-
ent opening into the dripping chamber
and a screw cap at the bottom gives
access to it for the removal of the
accumulated saliva. The smoke, in
passing through the coils Of the stem,
is drained several times of saliva and
nicotine

some Of them are collarless, while
others are so amply supplied with this
accessory that it becomes the domi-

The cape, unmOdified, is never
wholly absent, and is represented this
season in handsome evening wraps of
silk. Also there are fur capes that

their usual part in adding to the rich

not feel that 1t Is antiquated.

The San Francisco Chronicle tells
the following experience told by Brig.
Gen. Benjamin Alvord when the latter
was adjutant general Of the A. E. f.
The general had been sent by General
Pershing to make an inspection about
Colombey-les-Belles.
He walked around without getting
the attention the doughbOys would
show an officer Of his rank. No one
saluted him and no one noticed him.
Once in a while captain or major
would snap a salute, but not the en-

who always scrupulously followed
army regulations himself. Finally
when a private passed him with a
cigar in his mouth, and, although look

general thought it was time to call .

ALAS! fUK HUMAN FRAILN
City Editor Was First Victim Of HE
Own Stern Warning Against
the Booze"

Speaking Of booze: A few years ago,
Sahara is not, the city editor of
Denver daily was having no inconsid-
cradle trouble in getting out a news
paper the day following each pay
night. Finally, in desperation, he is
sued the following mimeographed let
ter for distribution to members Of
the staff:
"Any member Of this staff who is
found under the influence Of liquor, or
with any indication of having been
drinking during working hours, will
be: Fined for the first misdemeanor !;
suspended for the second; fred un-
conditionally for the third"
These mimeographed letters were
placed on the copy boys desk with in
structions to distribute them as soon
as the staff appeared for work the
next afternoon.
On the following afternoon there
was heard snort from the office Of
the society editor, and a usually meek
little red-haired beauty came dashing
out Of her room, waving a piece Of
paper in her hand. "Where's the city
editor?" she demanded. "Tll see why
/ have to be insulted like this"
The assistant city editor tried. to
calm her. But nothing would do but
that she see the city editor himself.
WELL" said the A. G. E., ut can't
be done. He was stewed and we had
to send him home"
Needless to say, there was a new
city editor the next afternoon, and the
stan gloatingly drank its way to the
days Of prohibition.-Lorry A. Jacobs,
