My invention relates to cigar, or, cigarette,

holders and refers to holders of the" described character having an ash retaining receptacle j i One of the objects of my device is a cigar, or cigarette, holder provided with means for. holding a cigar or cigarette and for retaining the ashes-within the device.

Attempts have been made to accomplish this purpose but the devices have been of such construction that under ordinary use the ashes will accumulate within the device and find their way through the openings necessary to allow of combustion.

I have overcome this difficulty and have invented a device in which the ashes are accumulated in a practically ash-proof receptacle, thus preventing the ashes from sifting through the air-openings.

Another advantage of my device is that it is of such construction that when the burning cigar, or cigarette, is laidaside temporarily, the cigar, or cigarette, will continue to burn and the ashes falling therefrom will be caught in an ash-receptacle which can be so closed that the ashes will not fall back into that portion of the device having the air-openings.

The above mentioned, and other, new, novel and useful features of my invention will be evident upon a consideration of this specification and its accompanying drawln s.

In the accompanying drawings, illustrating one form of the device of my invention similar parts are designated by similar numerals.

Figure 1 is'a side view of one form of the device of my invention.

Figure 2 is a cross-section through the line 22 of Figure 1.

Figure 3 is a cross-section through the line 3-3 of Figure 2.

Figure 4 is a reduced view of the device of Figure 1, standing upon its one end.

The particular form of the device of my invention shown in the accompanying drawings comprises a mouth-piece 10, having a central bore 11 extending from the recess 12, outwardly of the mouth-piece 10, which has a shoulder 13 and the threaded member 14.

The body of the device consists of the member 14 having an internally extended member 15, capable of being threaded to the member 14 of the mouthpiece l0, and

an internally threaded member 16. i The body 14 has a plurality of openings, or holes, 17,17. '4 The end member, ash'retaining'member, 18has a shoulder 19 and a threaded member 2Qca-pable of being threaded to the member 16. 'A revoluble axle 2 1 l the two sides ofthe end mmber'18. carries an annular closure 22 capable of being revolved into the position shown in full lines in Figure 8 in order to allow the ashes from the body 14 to fall into the ash-receiving member 18, and into the position shown in dotted lines in Figure 3 in order to retain the ashes in the ash-receiving member. The axle 21 has an exterior knob 23 in order to facilitate the movement of the closure 22.

extending through In operation the body 14 and the ash-receiving member are screwed together, a cigar, or cigarette, inserted in the recess 12 and the body 14 screwed to the mouthpiece 10. a

While the closure 22 may be in open or closed position, I prefer to have it closed. During the smoking operation air is drawn in-through the holes 17, 17 allowing the consumption of sufliciently small as to prevent the passage of ashes therethrough during the smoking process.

When it is desired to pass the ashes in the body 14' into the ash-receiver 18, the device is positioned perpendicularly with the mouth-piece 10 upward. The closure 22 is then revolved into .open position, the ashes fall into the end portion of the ash-receiving member and the closure 22 is revolved into closed position, retaining the ashes within the end chamber of the ash-receiving memin the position shown in Figure 4, thus allowing the cigarrette, or cigar, to burn even- 1y, while the ashes will fall and be retained in the device. It will thus be seen that my device presents an effective means whereby a cigar, or cigarette, may be smoked and the ashes retained in the device, and furtherthat it presents a means whereby a lighted cigar, or cigarette, may be laid aside temporarily, the cigar, or cigarette, remaining lighted and the ashes retained in the device.

I do not limit myself to the particular size, shape, number, arrangement or matethe cigar or cigarette, the holes being preferably When desired, the device may be placed rial of parts as shown and described as these are given simply as a means for explaining the device of my invention.

What I claim is 1. In a cigar holder, in combination, a mouth-piece capable of receiving-a cigar, a foraminous body attachable to the mouthpiece and encompasslng a cigar within'the mouth-piece, a nofi-foraminous ash-receiver attachable to the body, and closure means Within the ashereceiver capable of separating the end portion of theash-receiver from other portions of the device.

y 2., Ina cigar holler, in combination, a mouth-piece capable of receiving a cigar, a foraminous body. attachable to, the mouthpiece and encompassinga cigar Within the mouth-piece, a non-foraminous ash-receiver attachable to the body, a revoluble axle passing through the ash-receiver and a closure member fixedly attached to the axle.

3. In a cigar holder, in combination,- a mouth-piece capable of receiving a cigar, a foraminous body attachable t0 the mouthpiece and encompassing a cigar Within the mouth-piece, a' non-foraminous ash-receiver attachable to the body, a revoluble axle passing through theash-receiver a closure member fixedly attached to the axle and means exterior of the device for operating the closure member. a a
