covery of new uses to which the substance
could be applied. and as ! just said, there
Is a new application found every day even
yet.
The reason why I call 1t unlike any
other substance Is that it is true COM
pound of a vegetable and a mineral II
cannot, therefore, be classed as the books
used to tell US everything could be class
ed, in either the animal, vegetable, or
mineral kingdom, for 1t unquestionably
belongs to two kingdoms, and l know of
no other true compound that does. OF
course, everybody is familiar with its at
tributes in a general way, but the most
remarkable of these, to my notion. is its
resistance to acids 1t Is almost Us near
~ indestwctible as any substance in ma
ture, excepting, of course, that fire de-
stroys 1t. But even nitrate of silver, that
Will eat up almost anything, has no effect
on this, so that we make caustic cases
now of hard rubber.
Speaking of the multiplication of ITS
uses, l might say there is no limit to it,
The only Limitations It has is its cost. As
beautiful an example of its adaptability
as l can recall is the elaborate set of
pipes that the city has had put into the
New York Aquarium at the old Castle
Garden. These pipes cost considerably
more than any other kind in use, but
they win outlast any other for they are
absolutely clean. But almost anything
can be made of vulcanized rubber when
the first cost is not considered.
There is no substitute for India rubber
1t was thought at one time that gutta
percha would be a substitute, and that
anything that could be made of the one
could be made to equal advantage of the
other. In fact, this was considered so
certain that a gutta percha manufac-
turing company was started some thirty
five years ago or so with a large capital
and the manufacture of all sorts of things
was begun. 1t was not q success, how
ever, though for some things gutta per
cha answers well enough. 1t has not the
elasticity of rubber, though. Celluloid is
another substances that for some pur-
poses answers equally well with rubber
but IT cannot be called substitute, for
1t lacks many of the qualities that make
rubber so valuable.
Authorizations are practiced extensive
ly IN the manufacture of India rubber,
and are not by any means to be condemn
ed unqualifiedly. Among the substances
