The first requirement for complete
restoration is not to get the white
shoes too soiled, for they never look
SO well as when they are taken in
hand before the discoloration becomes
too deep! After wearing canvas shoes
they should be given good brushing
with a sufr brush, the sole edges and
heels freed from mud and washed off
with plain water. But do not let the
water get on the canvas, for this will

There is nothing prettier in q room

keep fish in the bowl. So l decided to

In the first place." said the expert,
don't make the mistake that one
woman did who came complaining to
me today. l questioned her concern
ing the food she had given the fish
and found that she had fed them moth
Ing but bread. That Is a sure way
to kill the fish, for the bread contains
yeast and this sours the water and 1t
would be necessary to change 1t every
half hour or SO to keep the fish alive.
IF you will watch a fish that Is fed
with bread you will see him eat II
for little time, but as the bread gets
sour from the action of the water he
> will take it in his mouth and cough Il
out very quickly. Common sens

I spits out the bread 1t Is not the righ

p fish food, but the prepared food NAL
r especially for the purpose is the be-
o thing to feed them with.
Don't overfeed the fish. They don
2 require a lot of food. Give then
J enough to have a good bite or two al
around, but don't keep the fish foot
floating all the time on the surface o.
the water. 1t fouls the water and the
fish will overfeed themselves and
probably die
When you see the fish seeking the
top it is a sure sign that the water is
getting stale and should be changed
The fish will naturally stay near the
bottom and as long as the water has
sufficient oxygen for their needs they
will swim around in any part OF the
bowl. But when the oxygen is getting
low and the water used up you will
see the fish crowd to the top and be.
gin to gasp. When they do this, thrust
ing their heads half out of the water
and gulping In the air you will know
that they need fresh water, and If you
do not give it to them quickly you will
find your fish floating at the top, dead.
Don't keep the fish bowl in dark
corner. The fish require sunlight. and
If they are given plenty Of light and
air, the water will not need to be
changed so frequently Remember that
the fish are accustomed in their ma
tive habitat to sunlight and air all
around them. From this, they are
taken and confined in a small bowl,
and this bowl Is kept in close room,
into which the sun seldom or never
penetrates, and the consequence Is the

AS most people are not familiar
with sheep breeding and feeding, their

Corn fodder and sorghum fodder
have about the same amount Of car

Reason

For over twenty years we have been
endeavOring to build a reputable jew

Could we, then, afford to sacrifice
our standing in Utah by advising our
patrons to buy a watch of less merit
than another for the same price!
The watch business is our trade and
through long years Of experience we
have learned that some watches are
better than others, at similar prices,
and we know we are serving ourselves
best when we sell watch that gives
our customer the greatest degree of ac-
curacy for the least cost.
Don't pin your faith TO moth eaten

printed pedigrees and specifications and
enclosed i'm fancy boxes, but take our
watch advice, and buy LeysOn Spe-

making was perfected science before
