Turkey Bone Pipe Stems
A corn-cob pipe with a turkey bone
stem, would be exclusively agricultu- |
ral, and as Thanksgiving is only about
three weeks off, the reader of the “ Re-
porter” who smokes will have an ex-
cellent opportunity to provide himself |
with a turkey bone pipe stem. And, |
if he chooses to send the gobbler to |
this office, we will feast on it, and
promise to send him the pipe stems.
An old smoker says there is nothing
like it. It is porous and yields to the
teeth. Smoke drawn thro the turkey |
bone stern is cool and sweet. The |
structure is porous, and it is supposed
that the outside air gets thro and takes
off the hot, biting taste. There is no
danger of a man getting his tongue
burned if he uses a turkey bone stem. |
Wild turkey bones are the best.
The editor of this paper don’t smoke,
but he eats turkey--when he gets a
chance.
