Cleaning Suede Gloves
Dear. .Margerv nnon.

Dear Margery Doom:
About six months ago YOU pub
lished an article on cleaning suede
gloves. VIII you reprint that article
for me? STEADY READER.
Spread out q clean, folded towel on
the table. Have ready saucer of
warm water and another saucer con-
tanning a piece Of white soap. Spread
the glove smooth on the towel, dip a
piece of clean rag in tho water, rub 1t
on the soap till it is coated thlclxly.
A thin coating will not do. You must
have plenty of soap or your glove will
be hard.
Now rub the glove with the rag,
working always in the same direction
straight up from the palm to the
points of the fingers. Do not rub
across or you will get a streaky
effect
Continue this till the glove, If light.
looks a thick yellow color, though
quite clear of spots. If the glove is
dark it will turn almost black all
over. Now lay another towel lightly
over it and leave it to dry.
When it is dry 1t will feel quite
hard and stiff and you will think that
it is spoiled. But Just stretch it gently
with pair of glove stretchers and
you will find that as the fingers ex-
pand they will grow soft again and
that the whole glove Is as good as
new. being quite clean and elastic.
Gloves treated in this way have
none of the unpleasant smell which
clings to those that have been cleaned
with chemicals,

This must be one of the ugly places
I've heard Nurse tell Bobbie about,
thought Legs. "Oh, how l wish Bob
bic was here now, or better, that
was home" And he went off to a
corner by himself, away from the un-
washed, disreputable dogs, and lay
down But no Bobbie came that night,
and poor Legs was miserable from
cold, and hungry and lonely. And so
he felt very unhappy on the second
morning.
Then there was Stir. 1t was near
ing 10 o'clock. when they would drive
all the dogs In that pen Into the cage
| I told you about. Men came in and
drove each one out through gate.
where stood the poundmaster-and
that would be the last of the dog. 1t
was very nearly poor little Legs's
time to be driven out, when Bobbie
and his father rolled up to their homo
in their automob
"Where's Legs?" cried Bobbie tho
first thing to the nurse, who was
standing in the door.
"Oh, Master Bobbie." cried the
nurse, hes been gone for two days,
and we can't find him anywhere"
"Two daysl" exclaimed the father.
He hurriedly looked at his watch.
TITS nearly 10 now. Drive as hard
as you can to the dog pound" he
almost shouted to the driver.
| Away they flew, his father looking
at his watch every moment, and
I urging the man to drive faster.
TITS half a minute after 10 o'clock
now" he said to himself, as his car
swung up to the big building where
poor Legs had gone two days before.
nm afraid I'm too late" Just then
he caught sight of g. man standing at
a. gate; sitting up before him was
little Legs, wagging his paws at the
man and then burying his nose In
them and bowling his head. Then, as
he heard Bobbie shout "Here!" he
gave a. little yelp Of Joy and sprang
into his lap. The man at the gate
smiled.
"Your dog, I guess" he said to
Bobbie.
Indeed he is,"sreplied Bobbierhug-
ging Legs closer while the little dog
commenced to nose him over fot
saucers.
"Well," said the man, 'it was his
politeness that saved his life. When
he came through the gate just now
he stopped and sat UP and wagged
his paws at me three times, and
knew he meant 'Howdy do Then he
buried his nose in his paws, and did II
so cunningly that I've been playing
with him here for five minutes when
he ought to have been in tho cage
long ago"
Bobbie took him home and gave
him milk until he swelled up like q
ball. Legs often sits In the window
and watches the dogs in the street
but he never goes out any more

There is quite a little need that
mothers in general should keep in
mind the matter of the good manners
of children and young people In
church and other public places. 1t
is natural that they should often
drift into careless habits of inatten-
tlon, but the tendency should be cor
reoted by rebul1e and drill in better
things.
1t is not unusual to sec children OF
young people reading during an ad-
dress or sermon, or lingering a book
or a paper. The child should be
trained, for its own sake, to sit up,
TO look at the singer or speaker, to
lay down all books and papers, and
to assume at least the appearance of
attention. Such as do not observe
this outward manner of politeness
are apt to be criticised by others as
being ill-trained.
1t is not fair to the child to permit
the cultivation of the habit of mat
tention. 1t creates mlnd-wandering.

chapped Lips and Hands

Dear Margery Doom:
A remedy for chapped lips and
hands would be greatly appreciated
by two steady readers of your column.
MARY-JANE.
When the lips chap and split easily
constant treatment with spirits OF
camphor is beneficial. It will burn
for a second, but that sting will soon
pass away, Camphor ice will act in
the same way, but much more slowly.
1t should be applied at night and upon
leaving the house. Tincture OF ben
zoin may be applied in the same way.
If 1t be strong enough to cause q
drawing" sensation, it may be dilut-
ed with few drops of glycerine.
The following lotion is said to be
excellent for chapped hands;
Strained honey, one ounce; lemon
Juice. one ounce; cologne, one ounce.
Mix and rub we'll into the hands at
night; then wear pair of large kid
gloves, the palms split for yentila-
tion.
Constant care must be used il tho
hands are to be kept nice during the
cold weather. Grease In some form
Is necessary, to counteract the dry
Ing, chapping effect of cold
A paste that will restore redeemed
skin to whiteness Is made from ono
ounce of powdered myrRh, four ounces
of strained honey, two ounces of yell
low wax and six ounces of rosewater-
The wax is melted in cup set IN a
pan of boiling water. While the
liquid is warm the myrrh goes in, the
cup then being removed from the
heat. After a thorough heating the
honey and rosewater are used, adding
the latter slowly. If the paste is too
thick to spread easily, it should be
thinned with glycerine
This application is excellent for the
arms and throat, as well as the hands.

Bobbie thought the little poodle his
aunt sent him for Christmas the
beautifulest dog that ever lived. He
promptly named him Legs, because
his real legs were so short.
OF course, Bobbie got him a silver
collar, and had his name put on 1t,
which made Legs very proud. This
was done because in the city where
Bobbie lived every dog had to wear a
collar with his name on 1t. IL he did
not, he was seized by a man who put
him In a wagon and took him to q
house called the dog pound. Then, If
his owner did not claim him in two
days, he was put in a large cage
with other dogs whose owners had not
claimed them and let down into pit
full of poisonous gas. where they all
soon died.
Bobbie's parents were very gentle
people, and had reared him into one
of the gentlest and manifest little fell
lows in the neighborhood. He deter
mined that his pet should be as polite
as himself, and so he set to work
teaching him at once. Soon, every
time anyone spoke to Legs he sat up
and wagged his paws three times, and
when he was hungry he sat up, and,
after wagging his paws, buried his
little pink nose between them and
bent his head very low.
One day Bobbie went away for two
DAYS Legs watched him drive away,
and then he looked down the street
and saw oh, so many dogs; he thought
he'd never seen SO many in his whole
six months life, which Legs thought
wassvery long. So out of the door he
sprang and away he scuttled down
the street as fast as his fat little legs
could carry him, forgetting Bobbie
and everything but playing with the
other dogs. But when he spoke to
big black dog, the dog merely grow1ed
and showed his ugly teeth.
my, what q rude creaturel"
thought Legs, but Just then came by
a beautiful little dog that looked just
like Legs himself. Up he rushed, and
before either knew 1t they were roll
Ing in the gutter playing bite. But
a young lady near gave a Shrek. and
a policeman grabbed up Legs. looked
at his collar and flung him down In
the street. Just then two ragged boys
saw him.
Gee, it's silverl" cried one. and,
snatching Legs, he tore off the beau
tiful collar and ran. Poor Legs was
much disappointed with all this, and
turned to go home, but found he had
lost his way. He wandered on until
a man with long pole with a net at
the end flung It over his head, and
before Legs knew what had happened
he was in a big, dark wagon with a
dozen other dogs that were biting
and snarling. They Jolted along until
at length they reached a long, dark
building that seemed to be filled with
dogs, from the howlings and bark
ings that came from 1t. Legs didn't
know 1t, but he was in the dog pound.
For he had lost his collar. He was
put in a large pen with about hun

Restoring Color

Dear Miss Doom:
have brown and white silk dress
which was washed one time and color
ran. should like to know how to
restore the color. WORRIED.
1t is very difficult to say that any
thing will perfectly restore color once
1t has run. Brown and white Is not
an easy problem. You might try the
chloroform, but one pint OF tepid
water and fifteen drops of the strong
est household ammonia will be better.
Ammonia has the greatest power for
restoring color. However, touch only
the dark spots of brown and shel
white check or plaid must be cleansed
of the brown stain If possible. With
a bit of white silk wipe the white
spot with warm clear water and sea
what can be done. Do not rub the
spot. for that will make 1t blur and
smudge.

Lobster Outlets

Boil the lobster, take out the meat
and mince fine, mixing in the coral
and the green fat. Moisten with a
butter sauce, made with water In
stead of milk, and let simmer until
sauce is blended with the lobster. Take
from fire and while hot stir in two
beaten eggs; pour the mixture into a
dish the depth you wish outlets in
thickness. For this you will need a
cutter, unless you are skilled enough
to cut them with a knife. When
shaped, sprinkle with flour, dip each
outlet in beaten egg and then very
carefully in crumbs, using a broad
bladed knife and tablespoon. Put In q
cold place an hour before frying and
brown in deep fat. These will need no
sauce, but may have peas, fried pota-
toes or salad served with them.
Crab outlets may be made in pre-
cisely the same way as the lobster.
