 then try to bend them.

 pliable. 



The others will all 

 break and crack 1 



The difference is in 

 the way tliey are made.

 know how and we take 

 no chances.

 buy their felt, the most 

 importantpartofaready

 get it the cheapest, and run big risks at the 

 very start. 



We saturate the felt in a compound of our 

 own, that renders every fibre of it water 

 proof. Soaked, mind you, not merely dipped. 



We coat it with the toughest,strongest, thick-
