u ESPECTFULLY informs the public
N in general, and Store-keepers in par
ticular, that he is now prepared to supply
them with the above valuable goods, whole
sale and retail, on moderate terms.
Shocmakers, also, may be supplied with
patent-rights, on easy terms, which they
will find it highly their interest TO obtain,
as they can, by this Improvement, make
four times the quantity Of shoes, with their
usual number of hands: for example, the
usual work Of three men, il only three pair
of common shoes per day; whereas, n tie
improved way, three men, with the ass.s-
lance of boy, can make from twelve to
fifteen pair per day. Thus the advanta-
ges resulting from this Improvement, are
evidently of the most essential Importance
in the first place, three-fourths OF the la
Dor is saved in the second place, half the
leather is saved, Qor one pair OF shoes,
made in this way, viii wear as long as two
pair, made III the usual way and, in the
third place, there is a saving Of fax (at
the rate OF ono pound, TO tUenty-four pair
Of shoes) they arc also much more water.
proof than the others, and easier mended.
These are well ascertained facts, PROV
ed by actual experience. The patentee-
therefore hopes, that an improvements
fraught with such important public utility,
will not only engage the attention, but the.
encouragement Of every friend to the in
FAINT manufactures Of this country. It may
not be amiss to remark, that the country
Shoemaker, in particular, may derive in~
calcuable advantages from this improve
ment, as he can supply his customers it
one-fourth of the time he has usually de-
voted TO that purpose, and have the other
three-fourths for the cultivation of his
farm, or other avocations.
Price Of patent-rights, for the country,
100 dollars. For states, districts or towns,
in proportion. Applications may be made
20 the Patcntee, or TO Mr.. Jacob Harrison.
