Many tramps have pissed through the

Many of them aie men of rather good ap

Others are of the ordinary tramp char

too unwell to accept. Much complaint is
heard of some of their acrions.

How to Ury Wet Shoes.
When, without overshoes, you have
been caught in a heavy rainstorm, per
haps you have known already what to
do with your best kid boots which have
been thoroughly wet through, and which
if left to dry in the ordinary way will be
stiff, brittle and unlovely. If not, you
will be glad to learn what I heard only
recently from one whose experience is of
value.
First wipe off gently with a soft cloth
all surface water and mud; then, while
still wet, rub with kerosene oil, using for
the purpose the furred side of canton
flannel. Set them aside till partially dry,
when a second treatment with oil is ad
visable. They may then be deposited in
a conveniently warm place, where they
will dry gradually and thoroughly. Be
fore applying French kid dressing, give
them a final rubbing with the flannel,
still slightly dampened with kerosene,
and your boots will be soft and flexible
as new kid and be very little affected by
their bath in the rain.—Harper’s Bazar.
