PRESERVATION OF LEATHER follow
ing valuable hints in regard to the preservation
of leather, we copy from tho Shoe and Leather
Reporter
The extreme heat to which most men and
women expose boots and shoes during the win
ter deprives leather OF its vitality, rendering
il liable to break and crack.
When leather becomes so warm rs TO give
of the smell of ldHher, 1t is sluged. Close
rubber shoes also destroy the lite OF leather.
All yarnishcs, and all backing containing the
properties OF varni,h, should be avoided.
Sboe.leather is generally abused. Persons
know nothing or care less about the kind of
material used than they do about the polish
PRODUCED. Vitriol backing is used till every
particle of oil in the leather is destroyed. To
remedy this abuse, the leather should DC wash
ed once a month with warm water and when
about half dry, coat Of oil or tallow should be
applied, and the boots set aside Tor day or
Two. This will renew the elasticity and lite IN
the leather and when thus used, upper leather
will seldom crack or break.
Don't wash harnesses with water and soap.
40 harness is ever so soiled that damp sponge
will not remove the dirt. When harness
.0Scs It's luStre aud becomes brown, which
almost any leather will do after long exposure
10 the air, the harness should be given new
coat OF grain black. Before using this grain
black, the grain surface should be thoroughly
washed with potash water until the grease is
killed. and after the application Of the grain
black oil and tallow should be applied to the
surface This will not only "fastcn the color,
but make the leather flexible. \ harness
which Is grained can be cleaned with kerosene
or spirits OF turpcntine, and no harm will result
i.the parts affected are washed and oiled i'm
uellatey afterwards.

An ASToNISuED CoURT.-A few days ago,
says the New Orleans Picayune, an old lady
and Young one found themselves in court,
charged with disturbing the peace. The OtI-
,,r' : statement was clearly given, and certainly
disclosed an equa culpability in both. 1t was
evident however, that the court inclined to a
favorable Judgment TO the youngest, and the
scales Of Justice we're rapidly tipping in her
favor.
"Why did you abuse this young LADY, the
magistrate demanded Of the old one.
Il had a right to :" was the calm reply,
What was she doing p
Keeping company with very improper
character
"Aud what is that to you?"
''She's my daughter. "
"Oh, indeed and you think the person was
