THE WORD "RUsBER."

THE material which we now know
i as rubber" was formerly called
elastic gum. One of the earliest uses
of this gum had been to erase marks
on paper and the chemist, Priestly, in
about ITO, suggested that the material
which erased or rubbed so effectively
should be called india rubber" His
suggestion was adopted, and the name
soon became universal.
