Much mischief is done by brushing oft dried mud from thin calf or kid hpots with hard bristle brushes, and much more by the use of the common acid blacking. With women's boots both treatments are simply ruinous. Boots should be freed from mud by a wet sponge, or a common painter's sash tool and a little water. Glace kid and the better sort of hoots should be well sponged, allowed to dry and then well polished with an old silk silk handkerchief sHghtly ofled about once a month.
