TO
CLEAN
WHITE
OR
COLORED
KID
GLOVES.--Put
the
glove
on
your
hand,
then
take
a
small
piece
of
flannel,
dip
it
in
camphene,
and
well,
but
gently,
rub
it
over
the
glove,
taking
care
not
to
make
it
too
wet,
when
the
dirt
is
removed,
dip
the
flannel
(or
another
piece
if
that
is
become
too
dirty)
into
pipe-clay
and
rub
it
over
the
glove;
take
it
off,
and
hang
it
up
in
a
room
to
dry,
and
in
a
day
or
two
very
little
smell
will
remain;
and
if
done
carefully
they
will
be
almost
as
good
as
new.
In
colored
ones,
if
yellow,
use
gamboge
after
the
pipe-clay,
and
for
other
colors
match
it
in
dry
paint.
TO
CLEAN
WHITE
KID
GLOVES.--Stretch
the
gloves
on
a
clean
board,
and
rub
all
the
soiled
or
grease-spots
with
cream
of
tartar
or
magnesia.
Let
them
rest
an
hour.
Then
have
ready
a
mixture
of
alum
and
Fuller's
earth
(both
powdered),
and
rub
it
all
over
the
gloves
with
a
brush
(a
clean
tooth-brush
or
something
similar),
and
let
them
rest
for
an
hour
or
two.
Then
sweep
it
all
off,
and
go
over
them
with
a
flannel
dipped
in
a
mixture
of
bran
and
finely
powdered
whiting.
Let
them
rest
another
hour;
then
brush
off
the
powder,
and
you
will
find
them
clean.
TO
CLEAN
LIGHT
KID
GLOVES.--Put
on
one
glove,
and
having
made
a
strong
lather
with
common
brown
soap,
apply
it
with
a
shaving
brush,
wiping
it
off
immediately
with
a
clean
towel,
then
blow
into
the
glove,
and
leave
it
to
dry.
