PROVISIONAL SPECIFICATION.
Improved Construction of Self-cleansing Tobacco or other Smoking
Pipes, with a Separate Tube or Flue for the Liquid or Nicotine.
I, BENJAMIN GALE of Queen Street Horbury near Wakefield Tobacconist do hereby
declare the nature of this invention to be as follows
--
This invention relates to improvements in the construction of self cleansing tobacco
or other smoking pipes which renders the mouth piece and bowl free from nicotine
or other offensive liquid.
Each pipe shall have two tubes or flues one above the other the upper flue for smoke
and the lower for liquid or nicotine, these flues shall be parallel until one third into
the mouth piece then they shall merge into one flue.
The smoke is drawn into the smoker's mouth by suction the liquid or nicotine passes
down the lower flue to the base of the bowl of the pipe by gravitation thus it will be
seen both processes are at work simultaneously. At the base of the bowl of the pipe
I place a cup and screw where the liquid or nicotine is collected and liberated by the
smoker at will.
This invention can be adapted to any kind or construction of pipe either curved or
straight and may be made of any material.

COMPLETE SPECIFICATION.
Improved Construction of Self-cleansing Tobacco or other Smoking
Pipes with a Separate Tube or Flue for the Liquid or Nicotine.
I BENJAMIN GALE of Queen Street Horbury near Wakefield Tobacconist do hereby
declare the nature of this invention and in what manner the same is to be per-
formed, to be particularly described and ascertained in and by the following
statement :-
This invention relates to improvements in the construction of self cleansing tobacco
or other smoking pipes which renders the mouth piece and bowl free from nicotine or
other offensive liquid.
Each pipe shall have two tubes or flues one above the other the upper flue for smoke
and the lower for liquid or nicotine these flues shall be parallel until about one third
into the mouth piece then they shall merge into one flue.
The smoke is drawn into the smoker's mouth by suction the liquid or nicotine
passes down the lower flue to the base of the bowl of the pipe by gravitation thus it
will be seen both processes are at work simultaneously. At the base of the bowl of
the pipe I place a cup or plug where the liquid or nicotine is collected and liberated
by the smoker at will.
This invention can be adapted to any kind or construction of pipe either curved or
straight and may be made of any material.
In order to better explain the nature of this invention I append 1 sheet of drawings
which I will now describe.
