WATERPROOF SHOE POLISH Take n
wide-rnouthed bottle, and half fill it
with shellac varnish having the consis-
tency of thin syrup. Mix some lamp
black with little of the same varnish
and, when we'll blended, add it, with n
bit of gum camphor, to the contents of
the bottle, and keep it well corked. The
rule is-to one pint of varnish add half
an ounce each of good lampblack and
gum camphor. With this preparation
children's shoes may be kept polished
and waterproof all the year round; and
it is a nice preparation for the larger
shoes as WELL And - if gentlemen

WASHING Rag CARPErs.-A rag carpet
should not be washed as long as it can
be avoided. It soils much easier after
once being washed, besides fading. If
there are grease spots, little hard soap
rubbed on then washed off with hot wa.
ter and well rinsed, is a good way to
remove them; or some aqua ammonia is
equally as good.

AZ DR.. Simons, a physician of Lor-
raine, gives a new cure for boils, by
treating them with camphorated alco-
hol. As soon as the eliminating point
of boil makes its appearance, he puts
a little of the liquid in saucer, and
dipping the end of his finger into it,
rubs the infamed surface, especially the
central part, repeating the operation
eight or ten times for about half min
ute. He then allows the surface to dry,
placing over it a slight coating of cam
phorated olive oil. He says that four
such applications will, in almost all
cases, cause boils to dry up and disap-
pear. The application should be made
at morning, noon and evening.
