A SMOKE CONSUMER.
A gentleman whose lungs are not strong enough for him to enjoy the fumes of tobacco after a dinner party, lately took with him to a friend's house a little lamp, which he placed on the table when the cigars were lighted. Over the flame of this little lamp was a ring of platinum, which, growing red hot in avery few seconds, consumed the smoke oi a dozen cigars as fast as it was made, so that the atmosphere of the room was as clear as it would have been had there been no smoking going on at all.
