To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
A friend tells me of a piece of furniture that he scrap- ed and coated with a kauri polishing varnish and that after twenty years looked as fresh and lustrous as at first. It is not at all unusual to hear complaints of polished jobs growing dim even before they can be shipped into the market. They wonder why. Well, it is most likely because they have cheapened on the polishing varnish. Some pay more than a dollar a gallon less than they formerly did. ROSIN AND THE GRADE OF GUM. We hear a great ...deal about the expert varnishmaker, his trade secrets and so on, though not so much as formerly; but the simple fact is that we cannot make a good varnish out of poor materials. We cannot juggle rosin into a good gum. The consumer has driven the varnishmak- er to the North Pole of his art in the endeavor to get prices down low enough. A polishing varnish made of Manila gum w r ill polish, of course, but the finish will lose luster within a comparatively short time. A kauri gum varnish with some rosin in it will do the same trick.
