Hubblebubble

A kind of tobacco-pipe, generally formed of the shell of a cocoa-nut, with a bowl inserted at one part, and a reed for the mouthpiece at another. The shell is partially filled with water, and the smoke being drawn through it produces a gurgling noise; hence the name. The hubble-bubble is commonly used by the natives of the East Indies.
