seaiskfn CopJured Out OF she skins
Of Tame Rabbits.

There was no mistaking the old
plush imitation seaIskin, and many
who could not afford the real declined
the counterfeit. but it is stated that
among the coming Winters fashions
will be skins SO cleverly dressed to
initiate the covering Of the seal that
detection will be possible only to the
expert, says the Cincinnati Inquirer.
II is expected that this innovation will
be one OF the most remarkable devel-
opments the fur trade has ever known.
The new fur is called electric seal !"
and consists Of the skin Of the ordi-
nary French tame rabbit electrically
treated.
The process involves a careful first
dressing to obtain softness and plia.
biIity, the coat aftcrward passing un.
der a machine of extraordinary deli
cacy, which catches and shears down
the stronger and coarser hairs, giving
at the same time softness and "fow"
to what is left. The dyeing is skillfully
managed TO give artificial gradations
OF golden brown under the surface.
The final stage Of manipulation before
the skins 90 to the manufacturer is
reached through the operation Of q
really marvellous electrical mechanism,
which removes any desirably stiff
hairs that might have been left by the
first machine. Unfortunately expert
ments that have been made with both
the common wild rabbit and the i'm
ported Australian skins have been at
tended with scant success, and only the
fur OF the domestic variety appears to
be available for the process.
The idea is not new. 1t has been
considered for many years, but it is
only through recent notifications and
improvements in mechanism rendered
possible by electricity that il has be-
come a factor to be seriously reckoned
with in the wholesale fur business.

Moody Euisxisss Brysa.

A New York dispatch Of Nov. 81
says. Mr.. Moody In his discourse ct
Cooper Union to-day, eulogixed the
Democratic candidate for the Presi-
dency. "I would like" said Mr..
Moody, ITO have q man like William
Jennings Bryan preach every day in
Trinity Church. Mr.. Bryan Is q good
Christian, and would rather see him
preaching in church than presiding
at the White House. He would dc
more good preaching Christ to Wall
street than being in the Presidential
