RUBEROID HOOFING, (Extract from the Bulletin, Sydney, May sth, 1900.) THE Sydney Eoyal Show was a passing good show m its way, though, it might have been belter Had the thermometer legisiercd ISOdeg under a hat, or tlio mercury cracked tha tiibe vith the quintessence of cold, then things would h-ive hummed. As it was, it was an ordiuaiy kind of show without special feature to impress :t on the tablets of the biani in contradistinction to the hundreds of other similar exhibitions that have been held ever since Fred Webster took tho helm, ?ad before. Perhaps the public would rather not have been frizzled up like hash-hoube bacoa or frozen down like refrigerated mutton, but had either of these contingencies ocuried they would have found that shelter awaited them in the V. and B. Kuberoid house. There they could have preserved their equanimity while others outa.de suffered all the pangs of extremes of heat or cold, according as the fates or inclement "VVragge had decreed. It is a strong point about 'his Kuberoid that it acts as a kind of insu- . latmg material, which, through its being a bad conductor of heat, is equally impervious io the most penetrating rays of an out-back-sun or the hoariest of hoar frosts. A timber and galvanised iron crib is therefore not alongside it for comfosi, Nor doeg it nearly approach it for arti&tic appearance. This, however, is a mere detail that doesn't count much where draughts prevail. The whole Alpha and the Omega, and the Beta and the Thefcsi, of tho matter lies m the qnoi-y — Is it cheaper? When the local bank manager holds the whip, that is what lie will ask. When the mother of six wants a new, bonnet, that is what she will ask. And he man that provides for them all naturally asks the same question. The reply is that by erecting a P. and B. Kuberoid crib instead of one of the galvanised iron vnnety you save stuff all the time; you save in the initial cost; you s°vve in construction, eventually saving your breath on oaths; so what more do you want? A member of the Bulletin staff, who hasn't got a profound craving foi dossing in the open, >s think ins of petitioning the member for the Domain to log-roll a- few Kubeioid cribs into his campiiig-giounil.
