THEMAFirmendarstellung
TEXTThe use of caoutchouc or India-rubber, in its applicability to the various purposes for which it ims been adopted, is an industry whose inception is of comparatively recent date. In examining some of the articles now manufactured from this useful substance, attention is directed to the vast difference shown between the industrial methods of an uncivilized nation and one which has the knowledge of chemical principles and is able to apply them practically in manufacture. During the past few years important discoveries have been made and applied to the preparation of India-rubber, an eminent and leading house being that of the Goodyear Company, which is now established at No. 540 Third Avenue, under the management of Mr. John Leeper. The goods manufactured by the Goodyear Rubber Company are unsurpassed by those of any similar concern, either in the United States or Europe. Special attention is given to the various processes embodied in the manufacture, and all articles sold are fully warranted, since none but the very best quality are produced. All varieties of goods, such as boots and shoes, coats, hose, stationers' articles, druggists' sundries, toys, and all kinds of moulded rubber articles are kept in stock, and are offered to customers at the lowest possible prices. A high status has already been gained for Goodyear's celebrated rubber manufacturers, the trade not only extending throughout the United States and Canada, but over the greater part of South America, Europe and Australia. Mr. Leeper is a native of Ireland, and is greatly respected for his many excellent qualities and strict integrity in commercial and social circles, and has resided in this country the greater part of his life. He has built up a trade creditable to his business enterprise, and his prospects in the future are of the most favorable character.
