My Dear Miss Doom: I.
I have three questions to ask. Can
white buckskin shoes be blaekened

shabby afterwards? How would you
wash white silk gloves? How could

could do it at home? Thanking you,
FLORENCE II.
/ am told that an excellent p'repar-
alton comes for blackeuing white
buckskin shoes. but cannot give
name of proprietary articles. Inquire
in any shoe store or in the shoe or
notion departments of the big stores.
Wash the white silk gloves in luke

If the dress is elaborate have it

the dress in about a gallon of the

Bedside Watch Stand


Almost every one likes to know the
time when he wakens in the night,
There is new bedside watch-stand
On the market which sells for Sc.
There is a little leather box, couple
of inches high and deep, and three or
four inches long, which contains a
storage battery. In the front OF this
box there is press button. and in
the top of the box in the middle front
there is tiny apaque white globe
that Eliminates when you press the
button.
From the centre of the box rises a
little lamp. The long shaft-not really
long. for it is not more than three
inches high, but it is SO slender that
! it gives the appearance of lengths
crowned with a little silk Iampshade,
edged with gilt braid and fringe, The
shades arc made in rose and golden
yellow and soft green, and the leather
boxes harmonic in color with the
shades.

Grease on Nubuck Shoes
Dear Miss Doc.

Dear Miss Doom:
Will you please tell me what will
remove black grease from white nu-
buck shoes without injuring the
leather? 1t is the black grease that
is used on trolley tracks.
MRS. ID. T.
l think it will be impossible to re-
move the stains entirely, as leather
is absorbent. but you can remove
most of it with the aid of chloroform.
Apply with sponge or piece OF
flannel and rub quickly, changing the
cloth or sponge as soon as it becomes
soiled. If spots remain. cover them
with warm, powdered French chalk
and put away in a box for two or
three days. Then brush the powder
off. The chalk will absorb great
deal of the oil.

THE FACE ON THE FLOOR
Written by Darcy.
Twas a balmy summer evening and
goodly crowd was there.
Which we'll nigh filed Joe's barroom,
on the corner of the square;
And as songs and Witty stories came
through tho open door,
vagabond crept slowly in and
posed upon tho floor.
Where did il come from? some one
said: The wind has blown IT in
What does II wantT another cried;
Here, Toby, seek him, IL your stom-
achs equal to the work
I wouldn't touch him with fork,
he's as filthy as a Turk
This bandinage the poor wretch took
with stoical good grace
In fact, he smiled as though he
thought he'd struck the proper
place:
Come, boys, | know there's kindly
To be in such good company would
make a deacon proud.
Give me a drink-that's what want
Pm out of funds. you know.
When ] had cash to treat the gang,
this hand was never Slow.
What? You laugh as if this pocket
never held sou.
I once WIS fixed as well, my boys,
as any one of you.
There, thanks, that braccd me nicely,
God bless you, one and all.
Next time ] pass this good saloon
I'll make another call;
Give you a song? No, I can't do that
my singing days are past,
My voice is crack ed. my throat's worn
out, and my lungs are going fast

I'll tell You what I'll do

are miserably tame;
Five ngers-therc, that's the scheme
and corking whiskcy. too.
Well, here's luck. boys, and landlord
my best regards TO you.
You've treated me very kindly. and
I'd like to tell you how
came to be the dirty sot you see
before you now;
AS | told you, once was man, with
muscle. frame and health,
And. but for blunder, ought to have
made considerable wealth.
4 was a painter-not one that daubed
on bricks and wood.
But an artist, and. for my age, was
rated pretty good;
| worked hard at my canvas, and
was bidding fair to rise,
For gradually saw the star of fame
before my. eyes. 80
I made picture. perhaps you've
seen, tits called the Chase OF
Fame,
1t brought me fifteen hundred pounds
and added to my name;
And then I met a woman-now comes
the funny part
With eyes that petrifed my brain and
sunk into my heart
why don't you laugh? 'Tis funny
that a vagabond YOU see
Could ever love q woman and expect
her love for me;
But twas SO. and for month or two
her smile was freely given,
And when her loving lips touched
mine, it carried me to Heaven.
! Boys. did you ever see a girl fol-
whom your soul you'd give,
With a form like Milo Venus, toe
beautiful to live:
With eyes that would beat the Kohl
