Various Leathers

The most important kinds of
leather are: chrome. cordovan and
patent. Chrome leather is tanned
by the aid Of chromium salts. Tests
made by the government during the
World war proved it to be the most
durable for shoes. Cordovan or
Spanish leather is soft, fine
grained product that takes high
polish. It derives its name from
Cordova, Spain, where II was orig
inally manufactured. At one time
it was made from goatskins only,
but now 1t is made from pigskins
and horsehides as well. Patent
leather was first manufactured at
Newark, Del, in 1919 by Seth Boy
den, Observation-Disclosures Maya

Pumpkin Sea Story

Years ago Bath shipmaster sail
ing out Of Boston on foreign voy-
age took along a great quantity of
pumpkins for his crew, hut left some
of them on the wharf, because the
steward said he could not use more.
They were fed pumpkins so often
that the crew became fearfully
tired of them, so one night large
number of them were thrown over
board without the captains knowl-
edge. The ship was becalmed and
in the morning the captain saw
pumpkins bobbing about on the sea.
He called the steward and asked
him what he knew about them. "I
think those are some of the pump
kins we left In Boston that were
thrown overheard after we left and
they have followed us so far as
here" said the stewart with a grin
