" LIKE WATER OFF BACK." An expression he LADIES' n that applies to RAINCOATS selling here at London prices. "We often say it, but seldom stop to enquire why it is, that the lucky duck is quite - impervious to wet and cold. Why Does the Water Run Off? Because of the Oily Fat which is on. the Feathers t " Water Fowl and which prevents the wet penetrating'',to the ;Skin. ' s H It is Just the Same with Sheep. After a Heavy Shower the Fleece may appear Jull,-of ' water, but'the moisture does not go through to the Skin. The Oily Matter in the .Wool keeps the animal dry and Then the Ordinary Woollen Garment ought to keep usdry! So it would if this peculiar, oil were' not removed from the Wool before it is woven into Cloth, as Wool holding its natural grease will not dye properly. The Problem then is how to get a Finely Woven Garment which shall be weather-proof ; yet it is quite simple. HOW IT IS DONE. By a Special Process the makers put back into the woven .*- - cloth just what the spinner takes" out of it when he. . weaves the yarn. The cloth is treated with a preparation which acts in the same way as the natural fat of the Wool; it makes the yarn wet-resisting. Gome Rain, Snow or Hail, it is all the same to a lady in one of OUR WEATHER-PROOF COATS. glistening feathers or the Sheep under its Fleece. " '. r'. - New Colorings. New Designs.
