Kid Gloves, Black, "Worn Spots, to Restore.
When black kid gloves are soiled, or turned white, in spots, from wear, wet the spots with black ink—a little poured into a sauce-plate, and apply by means of a bit of flannel, upon the end of a small stick, is a good way—then, leaving a few drops of the ink in the plate, pour in a tea-spoonful of salad oil or sweet oil, and with the flannel rub the mixture over the whole gloves, and dry in the sun—polish on the hand with soft flannel.
Ladies' Kid Boots—Black, to Re-Color Soiled, or Worn Spots. —First brush off all dirt, then color the spots with ink, or with the renovating dye, then with a little of the ink, or dye, in a little oil, as with black gloves, polish the whole uppers, so all will look alike.
Remarks—Jettine, or liquid blacking, is much used, of late years, instead of ink and oil; suit yourself.
