4 MARKET FOR OLD RUBBER.
The Thriving Trade of a buyer Of

asked yesterday Of a North Ninth street

Old rubber of all kinds has been agitating

pJsc we get a ton OF old rubbers here a day
aud old rubber overcoats without number. +"
"fhdie como here bringing a pair or two
OF rUDbers or overshoes, and we pay them
half Il cent or II little more a pound. The
hther day, while I was away, a woman came
clear from the lower end of Twentieth street
with three o: four old pairs that were worth
six cents. She couldn't get the money then,
50 she actually came back two OF three times,
Spending a quarter or so In street-car fares
before she got her pennies. That's a woman
idea Of a bargain. Then, besides old rubbers.
we get rubber babies, syringes, whistles,
belts, car springs, and, In fact, everything
that can DO made OF rubber. It's all good to
us, and for lots Of it We pay @ merely noml.
nal price. You know people generally throw
away WORKOUT things of rubber, or give
them to the rag or junk man. 70 wo buy a
good deal from those traders
"By mail and express things come 70 US
from all over the country, and even after
paying the postage or freight we can still
make them over at a profit. The government
sells us all its old rubber and we buy consid-
erable from the railroad and street car com
panies. The other day picked up a good lot
out at the University OF Pennsylvania. am
always on the lookout for a bargain. One
would hardly suppose that old rubber
could be utilized, but it can, and pays us
well, TOO. Oh, It's n great business, aud then
you Sc, it opens up a new source of income
for the houss-keepers, Now, what would you
imagine TO be tho crop Of old rubber over
shoes in Philadelphia Why, 1 estimate
that it is not less than 100000 pairs annu-
ally. II we put the price at 2 cents a pair
that makes "a 900 just for this item alone.
Now don't bull the market, and il you have
any old gums to sell me I will give you the
highest price for Them
