AS TO KNITTING.

If women should take to knitting
stockings again. as the mothers of the
present generation were wont to do,
they will be able to avenge them
selves on the hosiery manufacturers
who are responsible for the increased
duties provided In the pending tariff
bill. They will also satisfy In part the
wrath of the New York Times, which
is inclined to be more than critical of
the methods and results of the tariff
tinkering now in progress in Wash
ingtOn. In a learned discussion of the
Times. who evidently wore yarn socks
in his boyhood, says that knitting IS
an excellent pastime, and that it re-
duires concentration of the mind and
effective coordination. Those must
have been dreadfully uncomfortable
stockings that the French revolution
airy women knitted while they kept
tabs in front of the guillotine," the
Times continues. with their minds
occupied by mathematical calculations
ana thoughts u NtiscdACC iiIt SNiNCti
must have suffered. But the stockings
Of our grandmothers (meaning those
they manufactured for the use of
others. not those they wore, Of which
we have no knowledge frequently re-
quired Of the wearer Spartan endur-
ance and a Mark Tapley disposition.
There is no reason why, If the
American women take up knitting
anew, they should not carry it to per-
lection and establish it as an art,
Stockings and socks knitted at home
should be something more than dura-
bic and warm. They should ft the feet
and not make the weaTer feel as if he
were walking in q pair Of particularly
uncomfortable sabOts. The idea OF
penance should be ASSOCIATED from
knit stockings"
