Merchant, do hereby declare the nature of this invention to be as follows:-
This invention relates to improvements in and connected with tobacco pipes,
cigar and cigarette holders and is a further development of my Patent No. 4070,
A.D. 1893.
The invention consists of a small stem or rod at the outside. end of which there
is connected a small knob in which there is a series of perforations. This stem is
placed in the mouthpiece of the pipe, cigar or cigarette holder, the knob being on
the outside, and the smoke impinges on the knob in its passage through the
perforations and is diffused or radiated while entering the mouth. This knob also
prevents any saliva entering the mouthpiece..
It is to be understood that this perforated knob may be applied to the arrange-
ment for cleaning the smoke channel of the pipe in place of the knob as described
in my said previous Patent.

COMPLETE SPECIFICATION.
Improvements in and connected with Tobacco Pipes, Cigar and
Cigarette Holders.
I, NEIL MACPHAIL, of 53 Waterloo Street, Glasgow, North Britain, Merchant,
do hereby declare the nature of this invention and in what manner the same is to
be performed to be particularly described and ascertained in and by the following
statement:-
My invention relates to improvements in and connected with tobacco pipes,
cigar and cigarette holders and is a further development of my Patent No. 4070,
A.D. 1893.
In order that my invention may be properly understood and readily carried into
effect I have hereunto appended an explanatory sheet of drawings in both figures
of which corresponding parts are marked with the same letters of reference.
Figure 1 is a section of a pipe showing my improvements applied thereto.
Figure 2 is an end view of the knob.
The invention consists of a small stem or rod A, at the outside end of which
there is connected a small knob B in which there is a series of perforations or
notches C. This stem or rod A lies in the smoke-channel or mouthpiece D of the
pipe, cigar or cigarette holder, the knob B being on the outside, and the smoke is
deflected on the knob B in its passage through the perforations or notches C, and
enters the mouth in a cool, diffused radial form instead of one hot stream direct on
the tongue. This knob B, by covering the end E of the smoke-channel or mouth-
piece D, also prevents any saliva entering it. The withdrawal of the stem or
rod A clears out all nicotine or other deposit in the mouthpiece or smoke-
channel D.

page_text: It is to be understood that this perforated knob B may be applied to the rod
having the small round knob at the end of it fitting the diameter of the smoke-
channel and lying in the bottom of the bowl during smoking, in place of the knob
as described in my said previous Patent.
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of my said inven-
tion and in what manner the same is to be performed I declare that what
claim is :-
:-
In smoking pipes, cigar and cigarette holders the small stem or rod provided
with perforations or notches substantially as and for the purposes herein before
described and shown on the accompanying sheet of drawings.
Dated this 22nd day of August 1894.
