<br />THE GAZETTE.
<br />IRVING TODD & SON.
<br />SATURDAY JANUARY 18. 1908.
<br />.A numberof subscribers have com-
<br />plied with the postof ee requirement
<br />during the past two weeks by paving
<br />up arrearages and $1 in advance, and
<br />patrons will confer a great favor by
<br />looking at the yellow label on their
<br />paper and remitting, without waiting
<br />for a statement to be prepared and
<br />mailed., A few will undoubtedly
<br />have to be cut off after a reasonable
<br />time, but not as many as at first
<br />seemed probable. The regulation is
<br />not of our framing, yet will have*to
<br />,_be lived up to without distinction by
<br />every publisher who expects to con-
<br />tinue using the second class mail
<br />service. No one is considered a
<br />bonafde_ subscriber to a periodical
<br />unless he has paid for it, and that
<br />settles the natter without chance for
<br />argument.

<br />talking,* about the new waterworks in
<br />11a-tings, laid in the solid rock, and
<br />by the time the system is completed
<br />modern houses will be built and old
<br />ones reconstructed to take advantage
<br />of the great change for the better.
<br />We already have the best telephone
<br />and electric light service of any town

<br />follow as a matter of ne,essity.

<br />Leather From Whale Skins.
<br />The British consul at Chicago has
<br />made a report to his government con-
<br />cerning the whaling industry carried
<br />on by Newfoundland fishermen. They
<br />have been attempting to make whale
<br />leather a commercial product and are
<br />said to be meeting with some success.
<br />The average whale hide covers a sur-
<br />face of about 1,500 square Leet A
<br />square foot of the hide weighs from
<br />two to five ounces and le priced as
<br />high as 50 cents. The leather is very
<br />tough and is said to have great wear
<br />Ing qualities and may therefore bo
<br />adapted to the covering of furniture,
<br />buggy tope and seats and also auto-
<br />mobile uses. It is also claimed that It
<br />can be used for boots and shoes.
<br />Leather mad, from the intestines of
<br />the whale resembles kid and U very
<br />thin and tough. It will take color
<br />readily and is to be offered to glove
<br />manufacturers.
