Preservation of Leather.

A contributor to the Shoe and Leather
Reporter gives some valnabls hints in rela-
tion to the preservation of leather. The ex-
treme heart to which most men and woman
expose boots and shoes during winter de-
prives leather of its vitality, rendering it
liable to break and crack. Patent leather
particularly is often destroyed in this man
ner. When leather becomes so warm as to
give of the smell of leather, it is singed.-
Next 20 the singing caused by fire heat, is
the heat aud dampness caused by the COW
erng of rubber. Close rubber shoes de-
stroy the life of leather.
The practice of washing harness In warm
water and with soap is very damaging. If
coat of oil is put on immediately after
washing, the damage is repaired. No har-
ness is ever so solid that damp sponge will
not remove the dirt; but, even when the
sponge is applied, it is always useful to add
slight coat of oil by the use Of another
sponge.
All varnishes and all blacking containing
the properties of varnish should be svoided
Ignorant and indolent hostlerS are apt tc

as general thing, are most destructive L
