The American Climate and she Nerves

Prom McCiure's Magazine.
AS to the comparative effec; OF the Amer
lean climate on the different races OF man.
kind, 1t is too early to form any very con-
hdent Judgment. But this much is certain.
White races are affected more than colorei.
Full-bloode1 negroes are found to be en-
tirely exempt from some OF the worst ana
most prevalent forms OF nervous disease,
and even a slight trace of color seems II be
a safeguard. The Anglo-Slxon Americans
are the greatest sufferers from the national
disease, and especially those in the higher
walks of life. Females are more under The
influence of this terrible scourge than males.
and town jewellers than country folk. The
prevalence of the more serious nervous
diseases is shown TO be in almost exact
proportion to the congestion of popula-
ton. There is no surer test of the nervous
condition of any people than this-Can the
women. when they become mothers. nurse
their children them selves? Ia America IL
is found that. whereas in the rural districts
from seven-tenths u nine-tenths Of the wo-
men can do so. in the cities the proportion
is not more than one-half: and Doctor Nit
Che! declares that he would not be believed
il he were TO say how many even OF these
are unfit to be wives or mothers at all

The New style Of Neckwear I'm High
Favor.

From the Dry Goods Economist.
The advent of voluminous cravats is an
other matter which seems to be of very sec
cnda-y importance. and yet IL may be q
telling object in the general aspect OF .
toilet. For SO long a time a straight band
about the throat has been the only accept
able style that the new cravats take us by
surprise. all the more so that they are ex-
cessively wide and when tied In a big bow
Will cover the greater part Of the bust the
loops reaching to the curve OF the shoulders
and the ends falling nearly to the waist.
Some Of these cravats. which we owe TO the
favor in which vests and Louis XVI jack
cts are held. are made of breadth Of
mousseline- de sole. bordered with three or
four bands of saith of different colors Sup
posing the muslin to be of pale green, the
bands may be sky blue tan. moss and
cerise, bands of copper color. old gold, pink
and crimson being woven round cream or
saffron centers. Tinted well as white
mousseline de sole are also made up into
cravats with deep frills of lace at the ends.
India muslin being treated in the same way.
The greater novelty. however. Is the water
ed silk cravat, more often black than COLI
ored. 1ounced with ecru or cream lace. Ten
inch wide ribbon without an edge. and
sometimes piece silk. is used for the pur-
pose. Frequently the lace used for the
tions of guipure on the edge.
