For dancing school or for dress wear

are apt to induce bad habits in walk

stand on the sides of their feet If pos

habit grows apace. No child can get

grow them very rapidly. Black stock

IS we'll as grown people, unless with
brown shoes, when brown stockings
are the correct thing. A good cotton
stocking is by no means cheap, and in
children's sizes is much more expensive
than in ladies' sizes. 1t is very good
plan to have pair or two of silk-finish
stockings for dress. Woolen stockings
are not very much worn, because when
there is any tendency to perspiration
they induce it, and ofttimes in this
way make the feet colder than q cotton
stocking, which does not produce those
results.
Woolen underwear in our climate is
for the health of any child,

leavy weight; half wool and half cot
on is all that is required.

roidery is very reasonable at present,
nd little rutfies of embroidery on pet

uestion as to whether money can not
e saved by buying undergarments al
eady made, for they are now so well
lade and sold at such low prices that
ne argument that they do not wear so

othing, for the girls outgrow their
