Water-Proofed
Shoes Excellent
For Sportsman
Whether you indulge in active win-
ter sports or merely like to tramp
through the snow, there is nothing
more essential to your' comfort in,
these recreations than a good pair
of water-proofed shoes. If you dol
not possess a pair of specially con-
structed shoes for this purpose, an
ideal, method of waterproofing is to
take a pair of heavy country shoes
which are solidly made and cover
them thoroughly with waterproofing
oil. Standing the shoes for a day or
two in a shallow pan of oil which
covers about one half of the soles is
another method of thoroughly im-
pregnating them and making them
water resistant. Of course, the use
of a waterproofing oil on leather
makes it, impossible to get a satis-
factory shine on the leather, so this
treatment should be resrved for shoes
which are intended for nothing but
rough country wear. For those who
plan purchasing special shoes for
snow and wet weather, there is on
the market a variety of waterproofed
shoes which are so designed and con-
structed that they resist water with-
out in any way affecting the leather
to such an extent that they cannot
be polished.

striped leather, one of hound's tooth
check tweed with a zipper fastener;
and one with striped silk. All are

The first of the group of three
pipes is in a smart conventional
shape favored by many pipe smokers.
The second has a long briar shank
and a short stem mouth piece. The
third pipe is the church warden
variety, ideal for home use: Its
long stem ;assures a cool, comfortable
smoke.
Below this group is shown an elec-
tric shaving razor. These razors re-
.quire not lather or soap, and carry
no blades which need to be replaced.
They work on either A.C. or D.C.
current and their many advantaes
make ,them a , excellent gift.
Alongside of the shaver is shown
one of the well made and highly
efficient small cameras so popular
mat occasions. The stick pin is like-
wise extremely "smoothie" for the
every day occasions for which most
of us dress.
The middle shirt is a white madras
collar attached model with French
cuffs, and is suitable for either town
or country wear. With it is shown a
cashmere tie, having large spaced fig-
ures of a pattern frequently found in
foulards.
The third shirt is an English striped
broadcloth model. Small stripes are
set close together at wide intervals
and achieve a smart and interesting
effect. The collar on this shirt is the
new London lounge model which has
longer points than the usual one
worn in recent years. This new model
contributes much to the appearance
