Care of Shoes.

Buy shoes in the afternoon, when the
days activities have made the feet their
largest. Shoes purchased in the morning
are apt to be tight
TO save shoes that have been wet from
an early grave, wipe them off and then rub
with oil or cream applied with piece Of
flannel
Never wear new shoes on days when
overshoes are necessities. Rubbers spoil
shoes.
To clean kid boots which will not bear
backing, roll strip Of flannel four inches
wide and good yard long into wad and
sew it tightly Dip it into a saucer filled
with a few drops of olive ol and good
black ink Daub the shoe all over, and,
taking fresh flannel, rnb the shoe until
it is dry By this means the painful ap
proach of purple and the dreaded white
cracks will be delayed.
Tan shoes should be washed once a
week with saddle soap before applying
polish, which can be made by mixing one
ounce of muriatic acid, half an ounce of
alum, half an ounce of gum arabic and
half an ounce of spirit of lavenderin to
half pint of sour milk. apply with
Il flannel and polish with piece of fresh
