CARE OF GLOVES IMPORTANT
Shoes Also Are Likely to Receive More
Attention Than Usual on Account
of High Prices.

Women are learning 10 be careful of
gloves these days. The best way. some
women content, is To purchase several
pairs OF really good gloves and make
them give the best service by taking
infinite care of them. repairing the
least rip instantly. by smoothing the
gloves out flat and never rolling them
into n wad by protecting thera from
wet ON rainy days and by having them
cleaned before they get SO soiled that
hard rubbing Is necessary. Two pairs
of white kid dress gloves, one pair of
heavy dogSkin gloves and a pair of
washable chamois gloves should be a
fair allowance. Shoes. also. will re-
ceive extra care and attention this
year. Every pair will be neatly freed
while not In use, oil will be rubbed
into leather to keep ii soft and pliable
and shoes will be exchanged for slip
pers the moment one comes into the
house. The heavy laced sport shoes
for rough weather wear will stand
much hard usage, but dainty buttoned
boots for formal wear should be care
fully protected by rubbers when pave
ments are damp. A well-cared for
shoe will last longer and look better
while II lasts than one that is treated
without the respect footwear should
have these days of high prices.

SOLDIERS ADOPTED" BY PIG
Odd Mascot That History Records as
Attaching Itself to Company Of
Kentucky Volunteer

There Is in the history Of the state
Of Kentucky an odd incident in con-
nection with the Invasion Of Canada
by the Kentucky troops in 1912. A
company Of volunteers, destined for
Selby's army, assembled at Harrods-
burg and formed a nucleus around
N"Eich the military recruits Of the
country gathered on the march to the
Ohio.
On the outskirts of the town named,
so the story runs, the company saw
two pigs fighting and delayed the
march to watch the combat. When the
march recommended it was observed
that the victorious pig was following
the company; and when the men en-
.camped at night. the animal lay down
near at hand. OF course the soldiers
fed their plump recruit. The next day
the pig followed them, and this it did
daily on the march to the river.
