Discovered Synthetic Dye

Pot ages man has enfiched his ap-; 9

Pare] and surroundings with color
and for centuries he has sought new
and better means of obtaining the
colors he wanted. Until about 80
years ago, however, he had to depend entirely upon natural sources
~trees, roots, plants and insects. It
was not until 1856 that Perkin, a
young. English chemist, *~produced
the first synthetic dye of commercial importance. Much has been
written about this epochal discovery
of Perkin~s mauve, for its effects

upon everyday life and science have:
been far-reaching. -It formed the!
cornerstone of the dye industry we
have today

with space underneath for knees
and feet. Any of these arrangements that will make work easier
are worth consideration.
