These are of course only seen on rare occasions and those of cotton and Lisle-thread are most used. A tew years ago on a rainy day one caught bewildering glimpses of red stock- ings of all shades as the fair wearer climbed an omnibus step or careful- ly lifted her skirts to escape the mud, but now a gloomy black preyails on all sides. This 1s more particularly the case with children, anda boy ot proper feeling would teel eternally disgraced if called upon to wear red or blue stockings with his close-fit- ting knee breeches. But the ladies wear them, too—wear them in spite ot the fact that the dye literally pours from blackening the white underclothng and making the feet look like those ot the African-—and all because they happen to be the tashion of the moment. Some wo- men are rebelling atlast, and posive- them, ly decline to use them. declaring that the dye is miurious, besides being so disagreeable in ,that it peculiarly clings most persistently to everything | but the stockings. They are going | fashioned unbleach- back to the oid- ed Balbriggans, which are after all the most comfortable, and perhaps the prettiest as well. A lady, when the other day, said that the last pair sie | interviewed about black hose bought had kept her awake for two nights by causing the greatest irri- tation of the skin. “IT thought at first that I must be | poisoned,’” she added, *tbut it soon } passed away when I left them off.’’ | “Do you think cheap stockings | < | are any worse in such respects than sbe more expensive goods asked. “Notat all.

Silk stockings are now sold at such low figures that many people of only moderate means wear them altogether of late. Very handsome ones of all shades may be purchased tor $1.25 and some are even sold tor less than $1. It as partially owing to this tact, doubtless, that silk stocking match- ing the color of the toilet are so much more generally worn with evening dress than was the case a year or! two ago, and the wearing of black Stockings with ball costumes is now almost exclusively confined to chil- dren.
