Tan Shoe Hints.

Not every wearer of tan shoes may
know how to prevent the shoes turn
ing dark colored when they become
damp. The secret is to have the shoes
thoroughly polished before wearing
them. The polish acts as a coating
and prevents the moisture getting into
and discoloring the leather. OF course,
in time, tan shoes will change color,
but the day of this discoloration may
be postponed by expert shoe cleaners.
They will give the shoes a scrub, as
they call it. The operation takes
some little time. Shoes so treated,
once or possibly twice a season, will
look well for many months longer
than if the scrubbing is not done.

Ottomans Revived.

The revival of the high ottoman of

take advantage of an opportunity to
utilize space for the benefit of the fiat

covered with chintz or tapestries, open
on hinges and reveal bags for shoes

RED SPOTS KEPT SPREADING

1853 w. 143rd St, New York City
"My son, ten years old, while bathing
was bitten by sand f1eas. The spots
looked all red and as large as a FIVE
cent piece. They would crust over
and form black scabs, and if he knock
ed against anything, they would bleed,
and pus and blood would run down his
legs. He scratched the spots on both
legs and caused very SOL places, caus-
ing him to be unable to sleep. They
were large sores with large holes in
them. They were fierce to look at,
and were so inflamed I had to keep
him home with cloths bound around
both legs. I could not let him wear
any clothes as they would make them
worse. The spots kept spreading.

washed his legs with Cuticura Soap
three times a day and bound them up
