Rubber for your heels

depend on the DOUGH. or COMPOUND"

the use for which It Is intended. Onem must
be hard ss IN pipe-stems and combs,
another soft and spony Is IN pencil
erasers. One must endure steady pressure,
another continuous pounding. Still others
must withstand the grind Of abrasion.
The final character Of any rubber article
depends upon its compound. In per-
fecting the compound" the rubber chem
ist works backward. He first determines
the use to which the article viii be put,
and the work it will have to do Then he
chooses from among hundred varieties
Of rubber and thousands Of compounding
ingredients until, by experiment, he has
established the correct compound for
the required use.
The Washington times., 1919-09-30

YUSF as good -four Is necessary
to make good bread, so only
y good quality rubber viii make
good heels.
But good bread depends upon
more than good dour-it depends
on the dough, or the mixture of
-four with other ingredients. It is
the same with rubber heels,
Rubber itself is an elastic, resilient
substance derived from the milky juice
of certain tropical trees. In its crude
state it is not at all suited to practical use.
Heat and light are It's natural enemies.
It becomes soft and taclZy in hot weather
and stiff and brittle in cold. Only by
mixing it with other ingredients, and then
"Curing" or baking It under'pressure can
rubber be made really useful.

Why OISnIlivan s Heels

O'Sullivan's Heels-now universally rec

pounding, and the toHghness to withstand
daily grinding on hard pavements.
