VALUAsLE VOLUME.

ill view of the revival of interest
surrounding the burning of the steam

some sixty years ago, the fact that

books belonging to the Poolrot library

ashore by the survivors of that hoio
coust, has attracted considerable of

which accompanied the gift:

it to my father who in turn gave it to

library where it can rest as a relic of
that awful catastrophe.

state however and as there is always
a market for boot heels not only in
the centers of the supply trade in New
York and Boston. but also in England
and abroad the new project doubtless
will be a success. The heels are made
from leather scraps. pieces of waste
cuttings. chips and the various little
odds and ends oi leather discarded by
the lorger manufacturers of leather
goods. Those pieces are gathered up
endure shipped to various factories
where boot heels areturned out.
The mucosa of making the heels is
comparatively simple. Each man has
a bench by himself. the beaches being
waist high and being arranged in rows.
in the center of each is a block made
from the trunk of a tree which ex-
tends down through the bench and
rests upon the floor, much after the
manner of a butcher's chopping block.
011 each block is a die. varying in
heigh according to the size of the heel
which is to be made. The top of the
die is sharpened. Near the die is fast
eifed edge upward. a knife, and the
remainder of the outfit consists of It
tray for scraps of leather. a box for
nails and a mullet which is made of a
heavy piece of wood, listen the bottom
with an iron handle projecting from
the top, similar to the tempers used in
street paving on a smaller scale.
Two pieces of leather are first taken
and arranged so an to fit crosswise
into the die or form. They are laid
across the form and a rap with the
mullet drives a portion of the leather
down into the 1111-111; while the sharp
edges of the die cut off any superfluous

sorted and when the mould is filled
nails are driven through the pieces to
hold them in place a lever is inserted
into the front of the mould, and the;
heel is elected.
_That is the first stage. After they
have been hammered roughly together
they are inserted into a maChlne
which presses them together A
heavy dic corresponding in size to the
of the heel splits in the center by the
operation of the machine and corre,
sponds to the female die in a stamping
machine. The heel is inserted into the
opening made by the split die, the
sides close together forming a solid
cup with the leather heel in the center
The male dle then drops into the open
ing. and a pressure from all sides is ex
srted, the pressure amounting to from
eight to ten tons. That pressure forms
the heel, gives it definite shape, fits
it so that it can be nailed to the upper
and stamped it with the name of the
Bridgeport Heel company.
