The cupped section 3 is provided with a cylindrical section 6 which is exteriorly screw threaded into the cylindrical socket-like section 7 of the portion 2. And the holder section 7 is provided with the hollow and slight- 1y belled extension 8 which is adapted to engage about the tapered exterior 9 of the mouthpiece section 3 to reinforce the latter against breakage which would occur if the said extension were not provided. The end of the extension 8 is adapted to engage the shouldered portion 10 formed at the upper termination of the taper 9, with a snug fit.
The portion 11 of the exterior of the section 3 is preferably tapered exteriorly to conform with the belled extension portion 8 of the holder section, and their surfaces are preferably flush with each othertoenhance the artistic appearance of the mouthpiece when assembled. I
