OR, LEATHER RESToRER,
A NEW CHEMICAL DISCOVERY.

NE OsT PEOPLE know, that skins an
IV-n hides are converted into leather by q,
use Of Tannin extracted from certain barks, &c
/ When the force and strength of the Tanni
Is worn out, leather becomes dead, hayd, dyY

| Soffness, moistness. strength. smOothness
and remove all crust, fly, or blister restor,
| the tdnnin. This substance the leather neve
can receive the second time but the Who'll,
pUtues Of it are in this article, the OIL OF
/ TANNlN-which penetrates tho stilest and
hardest leather, if il has been twenty years in
use and If il tears easily with the fingers, il
imparts at once a strength that is utterly in
credible until seen. IL becomes like ne,1
feather, IN all respects, with delightful soil-
ness aud polish and makes all leather conpiete-
W and perfectly imperpious to water-par-
iicularly boots, shoes, carriage tops, harness,
hose, trunks, and in fact all things made Of
leather, giving splendid polish, even higher
than new leather has, and at least doubiing its
wear and durability, in whatever manner the
leather is used.-riiESE ARE FACTS.
10 convince Of their truth, any man trying
the article and not finding i, so, shalt have his
money again. Remember that this is serious
aud true.
We have TO say il, for we would never
have believed the wonderful effects Of this oil
upon leather without seeing it, and we ask not
lor the credulity of the community ill they have
seen, and then, we know that they must hnOc
these TO be facts. Directions for use, with each
bottle. Patent leather and its polish restored by
this oil.
Corns caHnot long exist where this il used for
boots and shoes, il keeps the leather 50 soft
LEATHER cannot decay, or crack, mould or
blister, during the common age Of man, 80 far rs
we can Judge by experience, # this oil is proper
ly used
LADIES' shoes of the finest kinds, are beau
i.ied and rendered water proof by il and so
are the shoessOr boots Of all Others who use it
Danish then, all India rubber, or other over
shoes, and use this oil. The proprietors will
warrant, that f leather is first soaked in this o. .
and then made into a boot, and That boot sunk
three months IN water, not one drop Of wet or
moisture can ever enter the boot, unless il runs
over The top and such boot shall wear double
the time Of lis mate that is not so prepared.
Now, if these things are true, the discovery
is OF infinite value to the world. Tn is not
true, it is the easiest thing in the world TO prove
It, without cost Who then will refuse a trial 4,
Those who will may wear old shoes, gsoan
will, corns, ride with old carriage tops have old
harness aud throw them away haG used-ook H
. thy themselves, and all about them-expend
double what Is necessary for articles Of leather.
10 their hearts's content, for what we care. ifII
heir prejudlces are so strong, they will not try
, new discovery. We have no f,vors to ask of
hem, they are the greatest sufferers, and we
beg Tor nobody's custom or patronage. Now,
gentlemen, please yourselves.
