washed, the salt in question is, of course,
readerei more easily soluble, result is that the
acid excretions from the feet attack the lin
oxide, and an irritating fluid is formed. In
view of this fact it would be well for parents
especially to be careful how they buy this
char acter Of stockings for their children to
wear. This is not the first complaint we have
heard n this score but if it has not been heed
