HOSIERY.
Hose for the Coming Season Must Match
the Dresses Worn.

Hose for the Coming Season Must Match
the Dresses Worn.
Early importations indicate that hose
for the coming season must match the
dresses with which they are worn;
therefore the fashionable colors are
fashionable only when they correspond
with the other colors in the costume
Where there are combinations, as of
beige and brown, ecru and blue, red
and black in the costume, it is consid-
cred the best taste to select the vertical
striped hose with alternate stripes of
the same colors, matching them exactly
if possible. If this can not be done,
select a single color, the one most
prominent in the costume preferred.
Black slippers and black hose with
white or cOlored dresses are not in ac-
cord with fashions DEGREES, unless the
dress is trimmed in black. For the
street, black stockings may be toler-
ated, because of being less conspicuous,
but for evening or house wear hose
should either match the dress or its
trimmings.
The leading shades in lighter colors
are beige, gray browns, light ''Old
china" blue, myrtle, sage, dull red,
pink and salmon shades. In the regu-
lar lines there are the usual cardinals,
blues, myrtles and browns. Roman or
Madras stripes viii be worn, but the
strictly fashionable style is plain goods
to match the dresses.
Black hose will be, as usual, very
popular. Every lady is supposed to own
one black dress or more, and fashion
DEGREES that if she does not, she should
remedy the omission as soon as pos
sible; therefore there is and will be
great demand for black hose. The new
''anchOr dye" warranted fast black,
will prove a boon to ladies who have
been seriously annoyed by the discolOr-
alton of feet and clothing from the col
or coming off from their black stock
ings. For those who have plenty of
black hose, or who do not get this new
dye, there are fine thin cotton or Isle
thread hose made expressly for sum-
mer wear under the regular black hose.
They keep the dlscOloratiOn from the
feet, and are soft and easy to walk in
besides.
Ladies who take long country walks
will appreciate a variety of stockings
imported last year under the name of
bathing hose" They are very soft
and loosely woven, but quite thick, and
keep the feet from being chafed by the
strong boots necessary for such pedes-
train tours. The s'haIf trunk hose
with the wide gore set in from the knee
up, are rapidly growing in favor. and
for stout ladies' they are especially de-
sirable, as the extra width does away
with the annoying construction of the
flesh when the hose are tight above the
knees.
The ''wash Isle" hose are the spe-
cial novelty of the spring importations.
They are a soft finished, very fine silky
Isle thread goods, much more like
spun silk in feeling than like Isle
thread, and are specially designed for
those ladies whose delicate feet find the
thread goods too harsh and irritating
if they take long walks.-DenoreSt'S

DIABETES,
Description of a Most Distressing and
Prevalent Complaint.

Description OF Most Distressing and
Prevalent Complaint.
The chief characteristic of this disease
is an abnormal amount of sugar in the
blood. The cause of it is quite uncer-
tain. According to Flint, it occurs in
the vast majority of cases between the
ages of thirty and fifty; in men much
oftener than in women. 1t may exist
long time before it is noticed, and then
continue years before proving fatal. 1t
often gives a fatal issue to otherwise
mild diseases. It's chief test is a large
per centage of sugar in the water, the
quantity of the latter, also, generally,
not always, being increased.
Among the earlier symptoms are
great thirst, a strong appetite, dryness
of the mouth and acid saliva; later,
emaciation, increasing muscular feeble
ness, and in many cases irritability,
melancholy and mental weakness. To
arrest it, it must be taken in its early
stages. One-third or more of its cases
end in consumption.
A diabetic patient, when the disease
has become confirmed, is liable to sud
den death. The heart may fail from
paralysis of its nerves; or, the blood

may sink into a state of insensibility,
delirium and coma fatal lethargy). A
slight cold may bring on tins result
So may mere constipation and undue
physical exertion, mental emotion, or
anxiety.
Flint says: THE disease seems to me
less formidable than heretofore, pro-
vided proper treatment be adopted and
persisted in. The main thing is to ar
range for the patient diet which ex-
cludes, as far as possible, sugar and
starch, and induce him rigidly to con-
tinue it While cutting off so many ar
ticles of the ordinary diet, pains must
be taken to supply their place with
others sufficiently nutritious and appe-
thing. Gluten bread may take the
place of common wheat bread. 1t con-
tains only one-third as much starch as
that made from entire wheat, and is
acceptable to the taste.
The body should be carefully protect
ed against the influence of atmospheric
changes, and the skin be kept in a good
condition There should be exercise in
the open air, but it should be moderate.
Mental relaxation and recreation should
be secured. Yostth's Companion

Painful Impressions.

A remarkable characteristic of the
average newspaper reader of the day Is
the eagerness and avidity one seeks for
painful impressions caused by perusing
accounts of human suffering Is there
a railroad accident, a steamboat disas-
ter, hanging, lynching, a murder or
anything of this nature wildly written
up and glowingly pictured in reportO-
rial descriptive style, it at once becomes
the most interesting item of the paper.
Managers of our large and most success
full metropolitan dailies pander to this
corrupt and morbid taste of their pa
irons. A reporter will be dispatched a
hundred miles to gather the latest and
most minute details of some licentious
rape or revolving murder, while the
deeds Of the good and the virtuous are
never known outside narrow limit.
Full many a rose is born to blush unseen
And waste its fragrance on the desert

All this Is evidence of mental disease,
a truth that can not be cOntTadicted.
