OIL OF TANNIN,
OR LEATHER RESToRER.

NEW CHEMICAL DISCOVERY. i.
Most people know that skins and hides are convert
ed into leather by the use of Tannn extracted FROM
certain barks, &C.
When the force and strength of the Tannin is worn
out leather becomes dead hard dry, brittle, cracked
covered with crust, &c. THIs ALL kNow. To re-
store, then, life, softness, mostness, strength smooth
ness, and ranove all crust fly blisterrestore the
tannin. This substance the leather can receive
the second time; but the whole virtues Of it in
this article, the OIL OF TANNIN-which pene-
trates the stiest and hardest LEATHER if it has been
twenty years in use and if it tears easily with the
fingers, it imparts at strength that is utterly
incredible until seen. II becomes like new leather,
in all respects with delightful softness and polish,
and makes all leather completely and perfectly inn
pervious to INDEPENDENTLY boots, shoes, carr
agetops harness. hose trunks, and in fact all things
made Of leather, giving splendid polish, high
er than leather has, and at least doubling its
wear and durability, in whatever the leather
Is used THESE ARE FACTS.
Those who will may wear old shoes, groan with
corns tide with ODD carriage-tops-haye old harness,
and throw them aw y half used-ook filthy them
selves and all about them-expend double what is
necessary for articles Of leather to thoir hearts
tent, for what we care, If their prejudlces are so
strong, they will DOT try new discovery. We have no
favors to ask of hsm they the greatest sufferers
aud we beg for nobody's custom or patronage. Now,
gentlemen, please yourselves
