use (; and if it tears easily with the fingers, il
inParts at once strength that is utterly in

tIcular'y boots, shoes, carrage tops, harness,
hose, trunks, and in fact all things nade of
leather, giving a splendid polish, even higher
than new leather has, and at least doubling its
wear and durability in Whatever manner the
