Horse hide, great deal of which is used
now, is thinner, has greater elasticity, q

slaughtered annually for the shoe trade.
Nowadays hides are tanned in too much

BY chemicals and other things that rot

next time that the hounds met he had
the monkey put into full hunting suit,
and secured by strap to the saddle Of
his most spirited hunter, and took him
away to the meet. When the fox was
