The PRESERVATION OF HARNESS.
Though the harness Is an article OF
everyday use there are few who know
how to care for il so as to insure its dur
ability, and to keep it looking clean and
neat. A harness that has been upon
horses back several hours in hot or
rainy weather, becomes wet, and if not
properly cleaned, the damage to the
leather is irreparable. If, after being
taken from the horse in this condition,
it is hung up in a careless manner,
traces and reins twisted into knots, the
saddle and brides hung askew, the
leather when dried retains the shape
given 1t while wet, and when forced TO
its original form damage is done the
stitching and the leather, Those who
use harness are not altogether in fault
for this; they would take care of it If
they knew the extent of damage that
would result from their carelessness,
and that they do not is the fault of the
manufacturer. 1t is mistaken policy
that leads the manufacturer of any line
of goods to neglect giving needed infor-
nation to the buyer. Every harness
manufacturer would study his own in
terests by accompanying each harness
sold with printed rules for preserving
the same. The first point to be observed
is to keep the leather soft and pliable;
this can be done only by keeping 1t well
charged with oil and grease; water is
destroyer of these, but mud and the sa-
line moisture from the animal are even
more destructive. Mud, in drying, ab-
serbs the grease and opens the pores of
the leather, making il a ready prey TO
water, while the salty character of the
perspiration from the animal Injuries
the leather, stitching and mountings.
Ii therefore follows that to preserve a
harness the straps should be washed
and oiled whenever it has been moisten-
ed by sweat or soiled by mud. To do
this effectually the straps should all be
unbuckled and detached, then washed
with little water and crown soap,
then coated with mixture OF neatsfoot
oil and tallow and bs allowed to remain
undisturbed until the water has dried
out; then thoroughly rubbed with
wooden rag the rubbing is important
as it, in addition to removing the sur
plus oil and grease, tends to close the
pores and gives a finish to the leather.
In hanging harnesses care should be
taken to allow all straps to hang their
full length; brides. pads, gig saddles
and collars should be hung upon forms
of the shape of each. Light is essential
In the care of leather, and when the
harness closet is dark the door should
be left open at least half of the time
during each day. All closets should be
ventilated, and when possible they
should be well lighted. To clean plated
mountings use chamois with little
tripoli or rotten stone, but they should
be secured as little as possible. Rub
Der covered goods are cleaned in the
same way, Leather-covered needs to
be well brushed and rubbed with a
woolen rag. If harness is thoroughly
cleaned twice year, and when unduly
exposed treated as We have recommend
ed. the leather will retain its softness
and strength for many years.

teaspoonful of milk, five eggs beaten
separately Qeaving out the whites of
three for the frosting), one-half cupful
of butter, one small teaspoonful of
cream Of tartar, and half that amount of
soda, (or use Royal baking powder,
which is much nicer). Bake in jelly
cake pans. When the cake is partly
cold, put between the layers grated
cocoanut, mixed with the beaten whites
of three eggs and a large cupful of
powdered sugar-leaving out enough of
the cocoanut to sprinkle over the top of
the cake, with nothing but sugar mixed
with it. If eggs are scarce, take two or
three for the cake, and mix the grated
cocoanut with half a sheet of Cooper's
isinglass, melted with half small cup
full of boiling water, and then stir thick
with sugar; pour it over the cocoanuI,
mixing 1t well together, and spread be-
tween the cakes.

WASHING THE FACB.-There are sew
eral wrong ways of washing the face.
and but one right. Towel, flannel,
sponge are all out of place where the
face is concerned. The hands only
should be used: DR.. Wilson's direc-
tions are: "Fill your basin about two
thirds full with fresh water; dip your
face in the water, and then your hands.
Soap the hands well, and pass the
soaped hands with gentle friction over
the whole face. Having performed
this part Of the operation thoroughly,
dip the face in the water the second
time, and rinse it completely; you may
add very much to the luxury of the
latter part of the operation by having a
second basin ready with fresh water to
per form a final rinse. But the care OF
the complexion requires that not only
the face, but the whole body, shall be
daily subjected to the bath. The
sponge baths, perhaps, are the best,
and the temperature of the water must
be regulated by the sensations of the
bather, and by the season of the year
No one can deny the charm Of clear soft
color in the cheeks and lips, and it mus
be an incorrigible complexion, indeed
that will not yield to the measures
have recommended.
