“TABLE DAINTIES.”
THE USE OF CAT SKINS. “IN JELLIES UPON OUR, TABLES.” LONDON, Dec. 24. Giving evidence at West Ham, in a case against a firm of fellmongers, which was dismissed, Mr James Gordon Parker, D.Sc., a Fellow of the Institute Off Chemists, and principal of the Leather Sellers’ College at Bermondsey, was asked what became of cat skins. He replied : “They are now used for fur coats (as was suggested). But il there was a particularly good skin—such as a Persian—it might he made up into: a fur whieli would, be put on a lady’s collar. It might be called musquash. Most of the cat skins which come front Belgium are made into gelatines, and, we have, them afterwards in jellies upon our tables. Rabbit skins are also, made into jellies.”
