The Shoe and Leather Reporter thus
notices new material for solins shoes,
which seems to be the climax of improve
msnt in this department. It seems to be
a substance of which India rubber is the
basis, but it is heavier, and has soldity

ITCHY which render it q most perfect subs
stance for the purpose for which it is
specially offered. 1t is not at all Of the
vulcanized rubber character, though it ap-
pears at glance to be like that material.
As an article for Soles it Will undoubtedly
out wear four pair of the best English
leather. This substance is not to take the
place of the ordinary sole, but is to be ap-
piled by peculiar cement to the boot or
shoe, to which 1t appears to adhere per-
fectly. 1t is then pared on the edge, and
the work is over. Heels are put on ia the

patented aud will soon be introduced. 1t

Any one possessing any ordinary shoe
knife, sandstone to sharpen it, box of

stance, can set up shoe shop; and the
regular shoe trade can make it most prof
