Munster Road Fulham London Patent Medicine Proprietor and Private, Hotel
Keeper, do hereby declare the nature of this invention for IMPROVEMENT IN
TOBACCO PIPES to be as follows:-
The patent claimed can be made with slight modification in one piece with the
mouthpiece or seperately, when seperately the patent chamber will contain a small
chamber or bore made through the top side of chamber and also of an inner
chamber immediately under the smoke channel or bore, having no outlet at the
end of chamber nearest to the stem of the bowl part of pipe, this inner chamber to
be large enough to hold an absorbent material, the chamber to screw on to the
screws of the bowl and mouth piece ends. When made with mouthpiece it will be
necessary to have a stopper for the inner chamber at the point nearest to the stem
of bowl.

Proprietor and Hotel Keeper 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:-
"
The pipe can be made in three different forms and for the sake of reference are
called " m "n" and "o" shapes In shape "m" the centre piece or chamber Y is
made with a worm at each end to screw on to X and Z a bore or channel C is
made in the top part of Y; under C a chamber B is formed with an opening to the
stem of mouthpiece, the other end of B being closed by the division R which is
the solid material between C and B and B and D:-D is a small space formed
between R and the worm of Y:-the bores A A protrude slightly beyond the
screws in the form of a small tube and can be made with or to screw into the
screws of X and Z.
In shape "n" the pipe is made in two pieces X and Z with an inner detachable
piece forming a stopper E and made with a small bore through T that part which
is fixed into F; F being a small space formed in the screw or push at the end of
bore A in Z-C is a bore through the top part of X and forming a continuous
bore with "a"; immediately under C the channel or chamber B is formed with a
wide opening towards the screw or push of Z and tapering off until it joins the
bore AR is the solid substance between C and B. In shape "o "the bowl and
stem Z is the same as in shape "n":-the mouthpiece X is made with a large
hollow chamber V merging into the bore A and having a shoulder made round
the sides and bottom at S for the purpose of bringing the chamber B of the
detachable piece H on the same level as the continuation of the bore A:-H is
formed so as to screw or fix into F and has a small bore through the screw or
push T; between that portion of H which forms the chamber B, and T a small
space or reservoir D is formed. B is a hollow chamber formed in H and made so
that the bottom of the chamber is level with A, the top of B is made so as to allow
of a small passage between the top of chamber V and the top of chamber B this
part of H is made to fit tightly or closely into V.
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of my said
invention and in what manner the same is to be performed I declare that what
I claim is
That in each pipe the chamber B (to hold an absorbent material) effectually
holds any saliva arising from the mouthpiece, and as there is no draught through B
the smoke is not drawn through the ordinary saliva saturated absorbent as in many
other pipes.

page_text: 2. That the channels or bores C C C are so constructed that neither saliva from
the mouthpiece nor any objectionable matter from the stem of bowl can get into it
and consequently the nicotine cannot be drawn into the mouth of smoker.
3. In the space D in shapes "m" and "o" an absorbent material can be placed
for the purpose of purifying the smoke and retaining any injurious and objection-
able matters arising from the bowl of pipe; where the absorbent is not used the
action is the same except as to purifying the smoke as all objectionable matters
will stop in the space at D.
