Lost In Self Admiration.

1t happened In an IL" car. Heswas
tall, handsome and just little. too well
dressed and was reading pamphlet
on which stood out in letters large
enough to be plainly legible to the op;
posite row Of passengers the title,
Correct Dress" They all noticed him,
for he was really beautiful.
There was no doubt as to what he
was reading. The passengers followed
it almost line by line and knew just
what part of the essay he had reached.
1t began when his eyes left the book
and glanced obviously at his cloth top
ped patent feathers. He shook his
head slightly as he saw that the upper
was of trife too pronounced a pat
tern. Next he took in his trousers, and
bland smile Of satisfaction wreathed
his face. There was a slight frown
when he compared his waistcoat with
the haberdasher's manual, but his coat
and hat were evidently irreproachable.
The end Of the inventory and of the
spectators self control came when the
beautiful one began to admire In the
back of his watch case his neckwear,
his shirt and the faultless curves of his
collar. A litter from the two girls In
the corner, and the whole benchful
exploded. The model of pulchritude
looked up, shut his book with snap,
blushed furiousiy and left the car at
the next station.-New York Mail and
Express.

How to Preserve Patent Leather.


Procure a pound or two Of natural
wool before it has been washed. You
will find this to have a sweet, whole.
some smell and to be full of oil. It Is
the natural oil Of the sheep, the same
kind Of oil that is in your hair. This
oil keeps the sleeps skin soft and
healthy, and like thing keeps healthy
the calfs or kids skin from which
your shoes are made. Now, every time
you take off your shoes Of patent or
enameled leather clean them with a
rag and then rub them briskly for a
few minutes with a handful of the
wool. 1t will astonish you to see what
a polish that will give them. They
will look like new, and you will find
that the leather will not crack as long
as you keep on treating it.
