It is related that he handed the pipe to Bishop Andrewes, who administered the last sacraments of the church tohim, and the goodly bish op passed it to the Carews, of Bed- dington, England. From this family it came into the pos session of the Glov ers, of Croydon, and afterwards to the Bryants,of Reigate, England. W. A. Bryant, of this fam ily exhibited the relic at G u i I d h a 11 Museum, London, forty - ei ght years ago. At that time a parchment was introduced authen ticating its history. JJ-T * T his pipe sir WalterRaleigh carried back to Eng land and used in cessantly, and is no doubt a souvenir of the first authentic introduction of to bacco into England. When Raleigh’s fall came, simultane ous with the weak ening of Queen Elizabeth’s power, and he mounted the scaffold, he held the stem of this pipe in his teeth. The The Great Grand-Daddy of the Jimmy Pipe pipe is now the property of Horace G. Blundell, 10 Stile Hall Parade, Chiswick, London, W., Eng land, who received it two years ago from his grandfather, who had married into the family of Bryant. This pipe is in a splendid state of pres ervation and is made of Virginia maple wood and is rudely carved with two dogs’ heads and four faces of Indian squaws. There is also a whistle cut in the pipe, by which it is said Sir Walter Raleigh summoned his serv ants. It is made in four pieces and is 2 1 2 times larger than this photograph. $ $ :4 s r f *£ I jp 4* This old he-one is the original jimmy pipe that Sir Walter Raleigh probably sat up nights carving while he smoked one extra pipeful before turning in. If Sir Walter had had Mnce Albert the notional joy smoke to puff on, he’d have made the original jimmy pipe the size of a log of wood and stayed up all night, because P.A. can’t bite the tongue or make you pipe- tired, it’s patented. Those were good Injuns that tipped Sir Walt off to the joy of pipe smoking. Sir Walt deserves a specially soft cloud for introducing the jimmy pipe to Johnny Bull and the rest of us. Prince Albert deserves the everlasting love of pipe fans, for it has brought into the game the real joy of smoking fragrant, delicious tobacco minus the tongue sting and throat torture. Get out your jimmy pipe and then buy a toppy red bag of P. A., 5c; or a tidy red tin, 10c; or a good supply in a pound or half-pound humidor. Sold everywhere R. J. REYNOLDS TOBACCO CO.
