Only one feature In my intercourse with the people oi the j roviiu-ial tows Bhall be mentioned that impressed it-elf very forcibly upon my mind as being characteristic of the German female. Strangers who are admitted into the houses o Gorman families car not help being puzzled at seeing every German woma of all ranks, from ten yea s up to eighty make ihe uintermi:ting us,; of her kni ting needle- the be-all and end-a 1 of her outdoor e istence.

At the reergar oens, at the cafes, at places of amuse ment, the fraut and fra!fis knit and knit, as if their wh'de soul, like an Irish woman's money, ly within a stocking heel. For It is none of your prettv, your.g ladylike, fancy-hair looking fantasies which those fi. e resolute needles perpe trate. No. tie wora-s of ' heir p ints are polid, uncompromising coverings for the foot of h.:shand. brother, ton and daugh ter. ! The rise and progress of a pair of Ger- j man stockings, which I took on several , occasions special pains to watch care- fully, strongly reminded me of a certain . glass of hot punch. j A jolly old Irish farmer in western j New York, whom I well remember, was ! wont to boast that he never on any occa- ; Sion drar.k more thn one glass of punch ! at one si'ting. This was p-Tfeetly tr-e. but it was equal y ccr a:n that he was never known to go to bed sober. The old gentleman, after supper, used i to manufaoturo a potent gbi.-s. After sipping a few spoonfuls he would com plain that it waued sugar. A lump or two were added. Then it was too sweet A somewhat too liberal infusion of pure water required a second dose of whiskey. Then a lit le more f.g-ir was added, and eo on, until, under the delusive name of one glass, a round tlu.en or so had bc-en lmbited. Now, in a somewhat analogous manner Is a German stocking pre erved by its thrifty owner to a venerable ol 1 age. When the foot, after careful mending, Is irretrievably gone, a new one is knit on the tipper part, and when this in its turn becomes superannuated, a new leg is joined to the foot. This operation being several times repeated, the article in question enjoys an immortality of stockmghood, although, like the fiamo . which it helps 'o cover, its su! .stance i3 perpe ually renewed The G rrann ladies hold In high con tempt all females unskilled In this par ticu.ar branch of industry.
