Stocking Stufs.

The materials of which stockings
are made are generally covered by
the terms Isle, mercerized yarn, silk'
ingram, silk plated and cashmere.
These terms have each a definite
technical meaning in the stocking
trade.
Lisle is cotton yarn made by dou-
bling together two threads, one OF
which is spun with a right-hand
twist, the other with left-hand
twist. This is firm yarn and gives
pood wear. When yarn is subjected
10 an alkaline bath and dried under
tension IT becomes more luStrouS and
takes dves better than other yarn.
This process is called mercerlZlnS,
and is carried further IN another
process called gassing. by Whlch the

cerized yarn are singed ana renoereu

combination of all three. 1t is called
dipped silk when it is DYED a1ter
manufacture from undyed yarns.
Ingram stockings are dyed in the
yarn and heavily loaded with mineral
salts They wear very well for some
people. but are injured by perspiration
and require great care in washing;
PLATED silk hose is made of two-thread
warn in which the silk thread is
thrown to the surface in the knitting.
The silk on the surface may thus
rough up, and wear off, but this hose
is generally quite durable. Finally,
cashmere hose is made of worsted
warn with a wooden finish. 1t is hne
ribbed and soft. and not very thick.
Like all woolens it requires great
care in washing, but wears a long
time if well cared for and not subject
ed to strong soaps or extremes OF hot
and cold water.

For the marriage ring is not, where

you may prefer that it remain a one

The use of the ring in the mar

the Egyptians. 1t implied the en-
dowment upon the bride of an the
husbands possessions, and gave to
the Egyptian woman the right to
issue commands with the same
authority as her spouse.
From time immemorial the ring

used 1t as a pledge, and it's delivery
indicated a transfer of authority and
carried with 1t the power of the
