An English artist discovered in 1870 that
the new gum was admirably adapted for
rubbing out pencil marks He wrote a
paper on the subject and informed his
contemporaries that cubic inch of this
substance, costing only shillings, would
last for years. 1t was used for no other
purpose in England than effacing lead
pencil marks for about half century
after this discoveryi hence the name "rub-

After the introduction Of the raw ma

of lassitude that comes in the spring to those
