Manchester, England. OF course the
reporters were after him shortly after

of Chicago generally and the Chicago
newspapers in particular. A Tribune

SIX Mm1Ioxs.-About two years ago,
DR.. J. Walker, an old and prominent
physician of California, discovered, by
actual experience upon his W system,
d medicine which may honestly be
termed "a boon to suffering humanity. -

tracts, pungent and sour to the taste,
and yet possessed of gentle stimulatiye

tiers, and despite the prejudice existing
among his profession, against all pa

brave the ieers of his brother practi-
sioners, and give to suffering humanity
the benefit of his accidental discovery,
He did so, and the benefits from it's
use became known. The demand in

at q merely nominal price. Its
merit is told in the fact that "in two

just visible at the mouth of the river,

ShOddY Leather.
The Latest swindle' by Massachusetts
Shoe MamWEaeturerR.

The Latest Swindle' by Msssachusett
Shoe Manufacturers.
Apropos of a recent article on the
revolution in the leather trade caused
by the excessive demand for the poorest
grades of leather in the market to an
extent that stocks are exhausted not
only but the prices up almost to
those of the best leather, while the
stores of our dealers are filed with the
best qualities which are almost I'M
salable, now comes the Cincinnati En-
quirer and tells what is done with this
poor leather. It says: "We are in
formed that cases of mems boots are
sold constantly at less than $18 per
case. The whole secret of the matter is
that the shoe manufacturers of Massa-
chusetts have almost ceased to use
leather in the manufacture of shoes for
tAe western trade. For soles, q species
of composition termed leather.board,
hardly distinguished from the genuine
article, but actually composed of a mix
ture of powdered leather and mucil-
lage, pressed into sheets by a hydraulic
press and veneered with a thin coating
of split calf-skin, is almost universally
used. OF course, as oon as the veneer
yea out, the sele goes to pieces very
rapidly, especially in wet weather.
This stuff is very largely used and sold
in Cincinnati, and costs only from nine
to sixteen cents, while good sole leather
costs from forty to fifty cents. This
1" stiffening" used in the manufacture
of these boots is nothing more than
pasteboard, and the boot is consequently
rendered shapeless by the frst thor
ough wetting. For the 'uppers' split
calfskin is used, with the grain surface
on the inside, SO as to deceive custom
srs. This miserable material, of conrse,
the wearer no protection against
water !; but the fraud is so ~cleverly
in the manufacture that ever
experienced shoemakers are often de.
,eived in purchasing it. The cost of a
pair of fine calfskin boots to these
eather-shoddy manufacturers is about
81 .50, and boots of heavier leather
'nly So. The soles of ladies' fine
'hoes are generally made of the abom-
nation known az leather board, while
he uppers, instead of being made of
rood goat-skin of English lasting, are
oImed of worthless sheep. skin or bad /
cotton cloth. The manufacturers cost :

proaches proficiency. A couple of cen
turtles ago all that the world knew OF
the healing art was within the easy
grasp of any average intellect. Now,
there is no physician living, however
eminent, who pretends to have mastered
or even to be moderately versed, in all
the details of medicine and surgery.
So it is with science, with law, with
mechanics, with journalism, until each
calling has reduced itself to an agglom-
Grafton OF specialties ; and without
doubt each speciality in the future will
be divided and subdivided as learning
and education advance.
