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.
