Second In the wrritinRs of a Kabhinical author who lived before Columhu ceetirs a passjRe which Huxtorf translates thus: "The l'ersian eat laf-hiki without salt." The verb in this paaRe (nhal) sinittes not only to eat," but also to drink." Anil verv many Oriental nations say "to drink tobacco " instead of to f moke, this phrase reachinR so far east a .lapan. Among the ware imported into

Alexandria during the reign of Kmperor Commodus was one indicated by the name Ihiakkha; very similar to the name Tuakko, applied to tobacco by the inhabitanUef the.Mosquito cat and many Caflir, while the name among the Cochin Chinese i Tuakhan.
