FOR FEMALE FOLK. + USEFUL HINTS FOR THE HOME. TO CORRESPONDENTS. "Mrs. ———Have addressed your letter to the firm, in compliance with your request. "Fearful."—We are told that electrolysis can- not possibly be performed without some pain to the patient, assertion to the contrary not- withstanding. Cocaine and ether are used to deaden the sensation during the opera- tion. Common-sense a.nd common expe- rience tell us it is impossible to take a hair from the head, and certainly not from the face, without some pain. Again, we have care- fully inquired into the matter, and find that it is rarely the operation effects a. radical cure. The process needs frequent repetition in meat eases.

APPLIQUE WORK. The desire of many workers of fancy designs is to produce a telling result with very little trouble, and applique embroidery certainly fulfils the desire aforesaid. We have had in wear for a long time past a sachet of white linen, with a bold pattern carried out in red Turkey twill applique. Transfers in any design, conventional and other, can be bought. The pattern is ironed off on the linen, and the red twill is then carefully laid on the material forming the ground work. The edge of the spray or design is worked in button-hole stitch, and, if leaves, the veining is done in stem-stitch. An excel- lent result is produced by wording short spikes all round the outside edges of leaves and flower stems. Now that we are shortly to celebrate the annual carnival known as spring cleaning, we may suggest that the material called workhouse sheeting or oat- meal cloth makes very nice curtains. They may be banded simply at top and bottom with broad strips of Turkey twill laid on and stitched down with a sewing machine, or the sides of the curtains may be so banded. If anything more elaborate is liked, a bold, straggling design of any kind carried out in red twill will take little time and give little trouble. The "Cassia"-cloth we have often called attention to is dyed in about thirty shades, and this will look,' perhaps, better than red twill, or the Cassia cloth may be used for the curtains, and the applique be done in another shade of the same colour or in a contrasting colour. Cassia cloth washes admirably, quite as well as Turkey twill does; it is not so wide as oatmeal cloth, but at sevenpence three farthings a yard the narrower width of the newer material, demanding, as it does, two lengths for each curtain, does not very materially increase expense. A bedspread to match curtains is desirable. If not time, neither inclination, to do more, just add an edge of wide coarse lace to the spread. CHEESE CUSTARD. Quarter pound cheese, two eggs, a pint of milk or cream, pepper, salt, and a few grains of cayenne. Grate the cheese, and put it in an enamelled pan with milk or cream; heat the milk and cheese well, but the mixture must not boil. Beat the eggs, and pour the milk and cheese gradually over them, mixing thoroughly; then add season- ing. Pour the custard into a buttered pie- dish, and bake for a quarter of an hour. Serve very hot. Sprinkle grated cheese on the top before sending to table. BOSTON TEA-CAKES. Two teacups of flour, two tablespoonfuls of sifted sugar mixed with the flour, two tea- spoonfuls of melted butter, one teaspoonful carbonate of soda, one well-beaten egg. Make a hole in the flour, add milk and car- bonate of soda, then egg and butter. Knead the dough. Bake in greased tins in a quick oven. AFTER HARD WORK. Physical culture is that sort of training by which the ill effects of a bad method of living is overcome. The woman who knows anything at all about physical culture will not get as tired as the woman who is ignorant of the art. While one grows fagged and pale the other keeps her colour and preserves her strength. It is all a matter of physical culture, this preservation of one's health and this retain. ing of one's colour. The first requisite for the preservation of health is the proper amount of exercise. But this should not be taken as exercise pure and simple. It should be a modified sort of exercise, a sort which rests and does not tire. The woman who goes home at night, tired in every limb and so weary of bone and brain that she cannot think, is in no condition to perform health exercise. In the first place, she is too tired to tax her vitality. She is really too weary to do anything but rest. She must not exert her- self to the point of exhausting the little strength she has left. There are those who approve of a hot bath at such times and others that advocate a cold bath. Truth to tell, the woman who has worked all day is too tired for either. The cold bath shocks her too much, while the hot bath takes too much of the natural oil out of her system. If convenient, and one feels equal to it, a rub down of alcohol is best. But if this is not always possible the woman who has worked hard all day will find herself wonder- fully freshened by a complete change of clothing, particularly of the shoes and stockings, underwear and collar. HOME-MADE BUTTONS. Buttons for wear during the coming spring and summer are of beautiful materials, intended more for decorative than for useful 1 purposes. They vary as much in size, style, and material as the gowns which they trim; but the newest fancy in for embroidered but- ■ tons to match the trimming upon a gown. Embroidered buttons are long and oval or 1 round, and come in many sizes of these two shapes. The shape is selected more for the purpose of allowing suitable spaoe for the decorative figure than anything else. A small wreath, with a tiny flowesed or plain centre, naturally looks best upon a round button, while a spray of small flowers is best upon an oblong button. The flowers upon buttons are usually worked in pompadour effects—that is, several delicate colours are blended together in the pattern with one colour standing out more strongly than th^ other. Sometimes the entire button is covered with embroidery in several shades of one oolour. Gold is often introduced in the embroidered pattern of these buttons, with the effect of bringing the other colours into relief. Any home dressmaker could cover wooden button forms with scraps of her gown, and quickly embroider a few tiny flowers or dots in several colours upon the top. The shapes are full and curved, not flat. Only buttons of heavy dress materials are flat, or some of the beaten metal buttons.

BREACH OF PROMISE HUMOUR. The experience of Mrs. Whetstone, the West Bromwich widow (says a Birmingham cor- respondent) is likely to lead to an increase in breach of promise actions. Not only haa her tobacconist shop been crowded since she exhibited her farthing damages and her j Mizpah ring in the window, but thirty-nine j sympathetic readers of the reports of the j case have sent her veils to take the place of I the one said to hare been ruined by the I jfefejidftat'g vfeofgiu ktttdsc. » |

FEMININE FASHIONS. COLLARLESS BLOUSES DIS- APPROVED BY FASHION. Though to all intents and purposes Fashion rejects blouses made without collars, and even insists that our necks shall be covered nearly to the ears by means of stocks, ties, and collars proper, we still see collarless blouses worn in the streets, and actually on the tops of omnibuses. No matter though the wind be due east or even north-east, some women go about with bared throats. This fashion, even in warm weather, was not intended for general adoption, irrespective of time and place. In the streets the propriety of exposing the throat was always doubtful, and now that Fashion recognises her former error to walk about in public thoroughfares with an uncovered neck is justly pronounced vulgar. DRESS ACCESSORIES Include every variety of the ties, stocks, and collars I have just mentioned. The narrow lawn turn-over oollar so much worn is usually aooompanied by a tie of some sort. It may be of crepe de chine, with fringed ends, or of very soft silk with lace ends, or of spotted ribbon, the ends united with a lace motif laid on each. A bow of this kind is often made up, and hooks invisibly round the neck. There are two loops on each side, one extending a little beyond the other; the ends of the ribbon are only a few inches in length. Ties are simply knotted, and fall their full length. SASHES Are amongst present-day drees accessories. They are made of very wide soft ribbon, so fashioned that they encircle the waist, making a broad rucked band. A pair of loops is arranged right and left Veepectively above the band. The sash ends are of unequal length, and are trimmed wide silk fringe. VESTS. All kinds of pretty vests are made to wear with open-fronted coats. The coatee, which is banded and just gives a glimpse of the vest, has sometimes no collar, but the vest is made with one that is high, and oftener than not a tie of some kind gives a finish to the neck. Articles of this kind form part, and a very considerable part, of modern dress; women spend a great deal of money upon them, and think their toilettes incomplete without such additions, but they cost the mickle sums that go to make a muckle, and, after all, there is not much that is really useful to show for the outlay. FRENCH CASHMERE. Were I asked to came a material at once durable, dressy, and fashionable for present wear, I should at once refer the inquirer to the headline of this paragraph. French cash- mere is peculiarly soft and pliable, and will be much worn this season. In certain shades of grey and in the new powder-blue cashmere is charming, and, while sufficiently warm for the present time of year, will not be oppressive even in summer, except on the very hottest days, and they are so few, as a rule, that they hardly count when deciding on a useful dress or costume. An emergency frook is soon provided if the torrid zone should happen temporarily to alide into our zone, called "temperate," but frequently dis- tinctly Arctic. GREYS AND GREYS. Elephant-grey and oyster-grey are very much alike; the distinction lies in the name rather than in the colours specified, and, though orange is not a colour that one can wear in any large quantity, there is a grow- ing fancy for it, and it is most useful to give relief to the different shades of grey that Fashion greatly affects. SKIRTS. These are fashionably made with taWier fronts, a style that used to be relegated to middle-aged women and to quite old ladies. A great many visiting gowns, some walking costumes, and nearly all evening gowns are being made with open fronts, the drees proper being stitched down over a very narrow tablier if it be for a. young figure. The tablier is wider when the figure is more matronly, the greater width having the effect of narrowing in appearance the rotundity of a stout figure. This front piece should be of silk, brocade, or similar handsome material, and always of the same colour as the dress material, but in a. paler shade- Ruches of frayed silk are used to trim the bodice. Many wide sleeves are gathered into broad bands some little distance above the wrist. These bands have wide openings to admit the double, sometimes treble, lace frills which Fashion affects with open sleeves, though I note a visible decline in that direc- tion in favour of the very deep, tight-fttting sleeve to the elbow, with a balloon-like puff abcve it. In fact, a near resemblance to the old gigot sleeve is apparent. I will describe a unique sleeve I saw lately. The material was cut to form a sleeve of great width, and was as full aa wide, and double the length of the arm, but on the inner side it was gathered and puckered to the length of the arm, a second draw string being run in, so that the outline of the arm was clearly shown, the volume of the sleeve drooping baggily from shoulder to wrist, where a frill of lace fell over the hand. The plain bodice was trimmed by a pelerine gathered on the shoulders and crossed from right to left as it neared the waist. SHORT LOOSE COATS Are to be worn still. They are neat-looking and easily slipped on when extra. warmth is needed. Biscuit cloth is used for many of these coats, but they only look well over black skirts, and should be worn with a black hat. Biscuit is rather a. vague description of colour, for such "cates" axe sometimes very brown—"extra toast" -and others are barely coloured at all. If you follow the fashion I am discussing, be careful to choose the particular shade of biscuit that best com- bines with black. If of the right tone, you will have a pleasing costume, but the wrong tone means dowdiness. What some persons consider trivial differences of colour are fre- quently of the greatest importance in rela- tion to the effect produced, that being rood, bad, or indifferent accordingly. FASHIONS Are so vacillating just now that it is as well to defer special and important purchases till later. Before the end of April something definite will be announced, and shall be quickly chronicled. GLOVES Pending the long gloves we are to adopt with elbow-eleevea, the leading colours in gloves for present wear are paJe greys, beaver, cream, champagne tints, and the lighter shades of brown. Cream and white gloves are very fashionable, and are seen on every occasion. With tailor-made costumes mocha-suedes and chieviette are preferred to finer kids, and three large buttons are invariably used to fasten gloves of this character. RUFFLES. Laoe ruffles near the wrist have been so very generally adopted that their doom is sealed. Exclusive dressers object to universal fashions, especially as seen in what are termed the adjuncts of the toilette, and these sleeve ruffles came in an aggressive form at the first, and since then have become still more exaggerated in width and depth. I have seen lace frills that, when the wind blew in a contrary direction to the walker, floated nearly half a yard behind her. It is by reason of such extremes that many a pretty fashion is vulgarised and soon dis- carded. THE SLOPE OF THE SHOULDER Is not a lovely fashion, and we may hope that exaggeration here will lead to the result just referred to. I have lately seen a blouse made with a shoulder piece carried from the collar band down to the elbow-joint, narrow- ing to a point there. This gave the undesirable effect of shoulders quite improved away, for women are made without shoulder points, and it is not so long ago that square shoulders were cultivated as essential to beauty of figure. If Mother Nature were possessed of the risible faculty sho would laugh at or otherwise deride these ridiculous and futile attempts to alter her handiwork according to the caprice of the moment and at Fashion's instigation. A* PRETTY THEATRE BLOUSE Was made of mousseline de soie in Parma violet shade. Some charming blouses are made of hand-painted chiffon. 'iney are worn over satin slips, with a long and wide sash of soft silk at the waist.

LEGAL. Notioe to Quit.—"T. E.We assume that your holding is an agricultural one, in which case you are entitled to twelve months expir- ing from the time when you took possession. Policy Insurance.—"Confident."—The insur- anoo company are quite correct. The policy provides for a paid-up policy being granted in exchange for it or a surrender value. The latter is not in addition to the paid-up policy. Husband and Wife.—"Westonian."—If the wife can prove that she left her husband because of aystema,tic crueltv she can obtain either a judicial separation or a maintenance order from the magistrates, and the court would deal in its discretion with the custody of the child. Removal of Plants, Ac.—"Cymro."—A tenant has no right to remove any trees, boshes, or flowers, even though planted by himself. He can remove any vegetable crops. This answer does not apply to agricultural tenants or allotment-holders, as to whom there has been special legislation. Executorship.—"dydaioh."—Unless there is a special power in the will your co-execator had no right to appoint his son to act in his place, and you, as surviving executor, are solely entitled to possession of the deeds and to act in the administration of the estates. You had better instruct a solicitor in your neighbourhood to act for you. Income-tax.—" S. J."—A person who owns property, but whose total income from all sources does not exceed JB160, is entitled to exemption from Income-tax in respect of the property, but until the claim for exemption has been allowed, he is liable to be assessed in respect of his property, and must pay the tax thereon. He can, however, obtain a return. Inhabited House Duty.—"H S."—The duty is chargeable OIl every house of the value of £ 20 per annum or over, and it does not matter in the least whether the tenant is liable for Income-tax or not. A landlord has no right to detain a tenant's furniture unless there is rent in arrear. There is nothing to prevent a landlord accepting a married woman as his tenant if he is satisfied to do so.
