I, ALFRED HIERONIMUS, of No. 15, Brandgasse, Strasburg, in Alsace, Merchant,
do hereby declare the nature of this Invention to be as follows, that is to say —
My said Invention has for its object to improve the manufacture and composition
of size or dressing material for textile materials and fabrics; and my improved size
is especially applicable for treating twine, string, or cord when being polished.
In carrying out my Invention I take meal which has been used with eggs in
tawing skins and mixing it with about four times its weight of water make it into
a thick paste, by boiling. I also take an equal weight of scraps or parings of kid
or other suitable skin and boil them in about six times their weight of water.
The liquid obtained by thus boiling the skin scraps or parings is next thoroughly
mixed with the meal paste. A little carbolic acid or other suitable antiseptic is
added. The compound will be in a proper condition for being used on the day
after it has been made. The proportions of the ingredients may be varied in
different cases; and other animal matters may be substituted for the scraps or
parings of skin.

Materials and Fabrics, and to be Used in Polishing Twine,
String, or Cord.
I, ALFRED HIERONIMUS, of No. 15 Brandgasse, Strasburg, in Alsace, Merchant,
do hereby declare the nature of this invention and in what manner the same is to
be performed, to be particularly described and ascertained in and by the following
statement, that is to say :-
My said Invention has for its object to improve the manufacture and composition
of size or dressing material for textile materials and fabrics; and my improved size
is especially applicable for treating twine, string, or cord when being polished.
In carrying out my Invention I take meal which has been used with eggs in
tawing skins and mixing it with about four times its weight of water make it into
a thick paste by boiling. I also take an equal weight of scraps or parings of kid
or other suitable skin and boil them in about six times their weight of water.
The liquid obtained by thus boiling the skin scraps or parings is next filtered and
thoroughly mixed with the meal paste. A little carbolic acid or other suitable
antiseptic may be added. The compound will be in a proper condition for being
used on the day after it has been made. The proportions of the ingredients may
be varied in different cases; and other animal matters may be substituted for the
scraps or parings of skin.
When the improved size is used for dressing twine, string, or cord, the polishing
operation may be conducted without hot rollers and quite in a cold way, whilst
the size is less costly than what has generally been used for the same purpose.
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of my said
Invention and in what manner the same is to be performed I declare that what
.I claim is :-
Making size or dressing material for textile materials and fabrics and to be used
in polishing twine, string, or cord, by combining a paste made by boiling in water
meal that has been used with eggs in tawing skins, with a liquid obtained by
boiling skin scraps or other suitable animal matters in water substantially as
hereinbefore described.
