How to get a pcnnyworth Of beauty on,
Of old bones and bits Of skin, is a problem
which the French gelatine makers have
solved very prcttily. Does the reader re-
member some gorgeous sheets Of c0,ored
gclatinc in the FreiFh department of the
Great Exhibition? We owed them to the
slaughier-houscs Of PARIS. Those es,ab-
lishmen,s are so well organized and con-
ducted, that all the refuse is carefully pre-
served, to be applied TO any purpose for
which it may be deemed fitting. Very pure
gelntine is made from the waste fragments
Of skin, bone, tendon. Ggature, and gelatin
Gus tissue Of the animals slaughtered in tire
Parisian abattojrs; and thin sheets Of this
gela,inc arc made to- receive very rich and
beautiful colors. As a gelstinous liquid,
when melted, il is used in the dressing Of
woven stuifs, and in the clariiioation Of
wine, and, as a solid, it is cut into threads
Tor the ornamental uses Of the confcc,ion-
er, or made into very thin white and trans
parent sheets Of paper gfaee for copying
drawings, or applied IN the making Of arti-
fetal flowers, or used as substitute for
paper on which gold printing may be exc
cuted. In good sooth-whcn an OK has
given Us our beef, and our leather, and oul
tallow, his career Of usefulness is by nc
means ended We can get,a penny out ol
him as long us there is scrap Of his sub

which they heartily wish to get rid of a
