A WRITER in Blackwood's Magazine says it
is wonderful to see the Thousand useful as
well as ornamental purposes to which paper
is applicable in the hands of the japanese.
He states that he saw it made into materials
so closely resembling Russian and morocco
leather and pig skin, that it was very diff
cult to detect the difference. With the aid
of lacker varnish and skillful painting, paper
made excellent trunks, tobacco bags, cigar
cases, saddles, telescope cases, the frames of
microscopes; and he even saw and used eX-
celent waterproof coats made OF paper
which did keep out the rain, and were as
fuple as the best Macintosh. The japanese
use neither silk nor cotton hankerchiefs,
towels or busters; paper in their hands
serves as an excellent substitute 1t is soft,
thin, tough, of pale yellow color, very
plentiful and very cheap.
