Selling Hides to Butchers Poor Economy 



MANY a man has a cow hide or a horse hide which he sells for almost noth- 

 ing. THIS IS POOR ECONOMY. Let him send the hide to us, 

 place with us the same money he spends in purchasing an ordinary cloth overcoat 

 or robe to last one and perhaps two seasons, and we will manufacture for him a 

 tUR COAT OR ROBE which we guarantee will not wet through, willlast 

 many years, and for durability and warmth cannot be equalled. 



Do not think it is necessarj- to send us black hides; an even-colored 

 red makes a fine robe; a horse hide makes a light robe — any color looks well. In 

 fact you will scarcely recognize your red, brown, gray, spotted, white and brindle 

 hides after they have been through our process and the hair 

 thoroughly washed and scoured bright. Don't sell your hides 

 to the butcher; you are practically giving away a coat, robe or 

 handsome floor rug.
