constantly becoming civilized and the
Increase of our hiilo and skin supply
Is tot In proportion to that of the
hu-imn race.
The amount of IpMIit need In the

in a ew years, says the Stioe Retailer,
but in no line has the ii:-.e of leather
broadened so extensively as in auto
mobile manufacture.
Any one who is nt all familiar with
an automobile knows that there Is a
cons'dernble amount of leather used
In Its construction, in upholstery and
otl erwlse. This means a large
dn . gl.t on tho leather mnrket, which
is per'Hps more noticeable In the high
pri.-e of spre;dy steers, the hides of
which are extensively used for that
purpose.

but that Is the way maps have them

Osawatomle, famed In Kansas his

River and the Pottawatomie. It Is
hamed. from these streams. In the
early days two "6's" were frequently
used In Its spelling, but U.e improprie
ty of their une was shown and pointed
out by the school teachers by simply
explaining the word's derivation.
The name of Pottawatomie, though,
had about ten different spellings, ac
cording to an old settler of that com
munity. "The tribe of Indians," he
said, "left the State and did not leave
us the correct spelling of the word. So
we people along the creek finally got
together and decided to spell the word
