bottle is the large, roomy funnel or mouth, permitting the same 

 to be firmly grasped and easily filled. This bottle is a most 

 serviceable and practical one for hospital use. [The Faultless 

 Rubber Co., Ashland, Ohio.] 



RUBBERIZED LEATHER FOOTBALL COVERS. 



It is stated that new lines which are arousing considerable 

 interest in the British trade are the rubberized foot balls covered 

 with a substance coated on the outside with rubber, whereby per- 

 fect waterproofing is secured. The rubberized balls are receiving 

 a trial this season and their wearing qualities are being put 

 to an exhaustive test. 



WALPOLE RUBBER HEELS FOR HORSES. 



An important rubber firm who for years have specialized on 

 rubber heels for human beings, are now in the field with rubber 

 heels for horses. They are manufacturing Pearl's patent re- 

 inforced heel. They are made of rubber, covered with tempered 

 reinforced spring heel, making them exceedingly resilient. The

steel spring plate furnishes a large bearing surface for the frog. 

 This heel also protects the heel from wear, and maintains an even 

 pressure. Further than this, it allows the joint of the foot to 

 flex naturally. They are made in eleven styles, from heavy ex- 



press to racing. The illustrations show (l) the reverse side of the 

 heavy express truss shoe, the blackened section representing the 

 spring steel plate, and (2) the heavy draft shoe truss, show- 

 ing face of the shoe. [Walpole Rubber Works, Walpole, Massa- 

 chusetts.] 



WOMAN'S WHITE RUBBER COAT. 



The distinct departure from conventional colors in rubber 

 surfaced clothing has been accomplished in the production 

 of a pure white rubber coat for ladies and misses. The rubber 

 is the thinnest possible coating, as light in weight as if gossamer 

 spread, and of a high grade coinpound. To relieve the almost 

 startling whiteness of the garment, broad cuffs and standing 

 collar of black satin are attached. The coat is thoroughly mod- 

 ern as far as cut goes, is double breasted, and has large patch 

 pockets over which hang protective flaps. It has ventilated arm- 

 holes and is fastened down the front w-ith a dozen large pearl 

 Ijuttons, pockets and cuffs being ornamented with the same kind 

 of buttons. [Fox, Stiefel & Co., New York.] 



THE "FLASH" SKIRT MARKER. 



The device illustrated here is meant to mark any skirt, of any 

 fabric, color, or size, instantaneously and with unerring pre- 

 cision. The cut shows a customer standing on the marker, with

marking arms adjusted to the proper height. All that the fitter 

 has to do is press the bulbs. [Julius L. Gutman, No. 467 Broad- 

 way, New York.] 



AEROPLANE CLINCHER TIRES. 



The pneumatic tired wheels upon which the body of an areo- 

 plane rests while on the ground are an important factor. Upon 

 them depends the ease of start and finish so necessary to both 

 tlie occupants and to the machine itself. The number of wheels 

 used varies from one on the monoplane tail, to two, three and 

 four, depending upon the type of machine. They must be as 

 light as possible and are usually of wire construction. The 

 tires are of the best material, of generous size and easily adjust- 

 able. The clincher type has been found to be the most advis- 

 able so far. This table gives the size and corresponding weight
