the words cannot appear in my corner.
I can give you q formula for the cur

to attempt this work. 1t Is very par
ticular and Intricate work. and requires
experience to successfully and sxpertly
nnish skin 30 that 1t will be disable.
Many times the amateur spoiis the skin
entirely. Space will not permit the
printing Of this method at this time but
shall endeavor to have IL printed for
you soon or send 1t to you. The skins
may be preserved by rubbing salt well
into the n1ue ana crying.
