TMNNIN 



For Tanning Skins that are to be used 

 for Mats or Robes. 



This Liquor was used by Prof. Currier many years in preparinj; Sheep skins 

 for fancy mats. The ease and quickness with which it can l)e used will commend 

 it to all." 



DIRECTIONS FOR USE. 



If the .skin is fresh (not (Iryj wash it well in strong soap suds. This may be 

 done as soon as removed from the animal. Stretch it on a board, tlesli side out; 

 lot it remain till tlie water has drained off (not too dry). With a sponge or brush 

 apply the liquor to tlesh side, using care to dampen the entire 

 surface. It will act rapidly, if it is a heavy skin apply a second coat, and if there 

 are any spots that do not take apply more liquor to them. Be careful not to use 

 too much of the liquor. Before it is quite dry, rub the surface over with dry plaster 

 and sawdust and then sandpaper it smooth. To soften, rub the skin; it should 

 be done before too dry. Parties doing much heavy work should have a rubbing 

 board. 



Dry Skins. Let them soak from two to three days in the regular pickle used 

 by taxidermists. Drain well and then proceed as witli fresh skins. 



Very Greasy skins, such as coons, wash well in a pail of water with a 

 handful of borax. This will cut the grease. After rinsing and stretching go 

 over surface with plaster, then apply liquor. 



PRICE, $100 PER BOTTLE.
