Tobacco, one of life's major pleasures, was brought to England from America in 1570. Sir Walter Raleigh, the first European to smoké a pipe of it, had a bucket of water thrown over him by his servant who thought he was on fire.

To-day more and more men are taking to pipe-smoking, but so far from having buckets of water thrown over them, it is becoming widely realised that only from a really good brlar pipe can the smoker experience' the real joys of smoking.

That accounts for the popularity, amongst discriminating smokers, of the well-known BBB pipes, Imported from England,

It is becoming diffleult to-day to find the real briar roots from which all BBB pipes are made, but it is only when these expensive roots are used, that a pipe gives that cool sweet smoke, the joy of the pipe smoker with the cultivated taste.

Therefore be sure that every pipe you buy has that guarantee of high quality and workmanship, the BBB sign.
