Smoke Cigars by Electricity.

In tobacco factories and also in many show-window displays it is found desirable to have an electromechanical device which will smoke cigars in a similar fashion to that followed by mankind in general, says the Electrical Experimenter. A flexible cord plugged into the nearest electric-light socket supplies the miniature motor with power to drive a multiple-vane blower, his blower creates a back draft, and thus the perfectos of doubtful vintage may be smoked rapidly and naturally, The resulting length and character of the ash are noted by tobacco experts.
