FEMININE FASHIONS.

FEMININE FASHIONS. WHAT FASHION'S NEXT MOVE WILL BE ? Midsummer being over and gone, it is not likely we shall see any more summer fashions exploit-ed. Very soon the mythical power we dub "Fashion" will be resting from her labours, taking that periodic siesta which seems, after all, to be spent. not in reet. but in strenuous endeavour to evolve something anew in the sartorial world. At times Fashion seems to have been happily inspired; agaIn, at other times, some freakish spirit appears to have taken possession of her, and her sen- sible devotees have their loyalty very severely put to the test. What Fashion's next move will be it is very hard to say. Someone, who seems to be behind the scenes, declares that dress improvers, or, to call a. spade a epade, "bustles," are coming in. It is but a rumour at present, and ma.y have no foundation in fact; still, the idea of this mode of distending our gowns below the waiet finds favour with not a few. A SINGULAR MODE Is that of fashioning flchm, which look like large hoods. There fichus are made of chiffon or of point d'esprit net, so that their character is not very pronounced. Neck arrangements are varied. The "toby" frill is not as extinct as some of us supposed it to be, and the Medicis ruff is also seen. The marabout stole has become 60 universal that one gets tired of its repetition, and many old styles of neck wear are being re-introduced and acceptably worn in preference to the stole. HIGH COLLARS. Both English and French authorities denounce the collarless blouse. The collar must be high, but it need not be stiff, and it may be transparent, but the bare throat is absolutely de mode. Beads and mock pearls are utterly repudiated as collar substitutes. WAISTBANDS. The growing importance of these adjuncts to dress I have mentioned before, and again call attention to them. The more fanciful belts—and there are many of this kind—are sure to be vulgarised. Satin, silk, brocade, and also suede kid waistbands are best. Have them made to fit, and be not persuaded to buy ready-made bands of inferior material. There are hundreds of dozens of cheap waist- belts in the shops, but they are never satis- factory wear. Belts of white suede kid, fastened at the back with gilt buttons, look very smart with white, also with some coloured dresses. The kid cleans easily if French chalk is used; but, as I have eaid more than once, no woman whose waist measure exceeds twenty-foar inches should wear a white belt of any description. SPANISH COMB. The tall Spanish comb is coming in, and this seems to indicate change in the fashion of hairdressing, which again means headgear of a kind to suit a newer arrangement of the hair. Hate and toques and bonnets are bound to conform to it. As yet I am unable to say in what manner the high comb will be placed, or, rather, how the hair will be dressed to suit the comb. Anyway, its Ihtroduction must change the present mode of dressing the hair. TUB FROCKS. The new name given to washing dresses certainly cannot be described as euphemistic. All the same, the term is getting quite familiar, and, I believe, like many another expression of the kind, had its origin in America. Spots of two colours are seen on pale ecru linens. "Nankin" was the old-time name for the colour. It differs in tone from the long popular champagne tint, and when not patterned, looks exceedingly well embroidered in white. The best effect, how- ever, is secured by embroidery worked in red and blue ingrain cottons. Cotton voile con- tinues in high favour, and, though I consider this material is at its best when self-coloured, the taste of many others differs from my own. If coloured spots pattern the voile, the happiest result is produced by green discs on an ivory-tinted ground. Ribbon of the sajne shade of green should be sparingly used to trim the bodice and the sash or waist- belt to correspond. Black muslin that is very fine and trans- parent is often made up over coloured silk. The muslin shows in some cases spots to match the silk. But, once again, let me com- mend the unpatterned material—worn, if you will, over pale green; that is the only colour that can be recommended as a foundation for black muslin, if a. black or a white under- dress be disliked. ALL MEN. "All men think all men mortal bat them- selves." I forget what sage penned that assertion, but we see it verified almost daily. (Precautions against destructive and dangerous elements are, for the most part, neglected by individuals singly. Accidents, to whioh all are liable, are usually regarded in the abstract—much more likely to befall others than ourselves. If questioned on the subject, most persons say, "Oh, yes, of course; accidents will happen at times," but from appearance it would seem they do not see a personal application in threatened or merely possible dangers. In short, "think all men mortal but themselves." THE DROWNING SEASON. As it is called, begins with the summer months, and few persons run more recklessly into danger than do those who venture on the water without experienced oarsmen, profes- sional or amateur. Even then, unless the occupants of the craft exercise self-control when unexpected peril arises, and, above all, avoid larking, by which the balance of the boat may be instantly destroyed, the chances are that such foqlish folk may not only drown themselves, but others, who would have been safe but for folly.' It is surprising that so few 'persons can swim. Ever so little know- ledge of the art of natation would under many disasters by water keep people afloat for a short time, when, possibly, a rescue is at hand, and thus life be saved. If persons who go out on boating excursions cannot swim, the hire of a cork jacket or a life-belt is advised. At most seaside resorts lessons in swimming can be had, and some of the leisure holiday-takers have might be profitably employed by attending swimming classes. Swimming is not only a. pleasurable pastime and method of exercise, but an accomplish- ment it ie well to possess. The dangers of sea bathing, rowing, a.nd voyages by water are thereby lessened. Swimming develops the muscles, but its greatest benefit lies in its powers of increasing circulation. BATHING DRESS. Equipments for bathing are unusually attractive this year. The waterproof caps are extremely fascinating, and are shaped in many ways to ensure their proving indi- vidually becoming to different types of faces. The dresses are just as varied in make, but in England most women of delicacy prefer neat bathing gowns to those of more conspi- cuous character seeming to challenge notice and remark. A serge dress, trimmed red or white braid, if prettily shaped, has few rivals. Unlike many smarter water toilettes, it comes up smiling a.fter many dips, and just as trim as before. More elaborate bathing gowns frequently present a very sorry appear- ance after two or three immersions. Most useful are the large waterproof bags, serving to hold toilet requisites—towel, cloak, 6hoes, brushes, Ac. The ba-gs are daintily covered. and are an attractive part of the bather's equipment. After coming out of the water the face should be sponged with a little rose- water or with elderflower water, and then a little cold cream may be rubbed in with advantage. This preserves the -3kin from the irritation caused by the combined effects of hot sun and salt water.

PILING UP A RECORD. The serial story of Ann Dunn was continued at Newport Po-lioo-court on Monday. She is 38 years of age, has been married nineteen years, has been before the magistrates 43 times, has been an inmate in the inebriates' home, and her husband is living apart from her. The charge against her was that of being drunk and disorderly at Pill Police-sta.tion. She followed her usual custom when in drink. That custom is to go to the police-station in Temple-street, shout until the constables are attracted, and on going inside take off her hat and jacket and decline to leave. Alderman Bear: Perhaps she knows where she is safest. Police-constable Kinnersley: Yes, PrObably 80 She is so well-known to the court that the clerk srpoke quite familiarly to her. What have you to say, Ann?" Ann Well, I am very sorry, sir. I haven't been here since last December, and it was half- past eight before I left my work that night. The Bench fined her 10s. 6d.. or fourteen days.

DIDN'T STEAL THE WHISKY. At Pontypridd Police-court on Saturday Samuel Higton, engine-driver, was charged on remand with stealing a case of whisky, the property of the Great Western Railway Com- pany. The whisky was in the course of transit from Exeter to Welshpool, and was in a truck whioh had been ahnnted into a siding at Pontypool Road late on Saturday night. About one o'clock on Srmday morn- ing Edwin Davies, a shunter. Raid he found the accused lying fast asleep in a field adjoining the railway, with the case of whisky in his possession. A man named Roberts, who was working with the prisoner, staAed that Higton was drunk oil duty art 10.30 on the night in ques- tion, and shortly before eleven o'clock he bad to assist him away. He was then help- lessly drunk. Higton denied the ahacge. and said the wfeiaky most have been placed beside him -wh«n he was asleep. 11 mii .mfl

FOR FEMALE FOLK. e USEFUL HINTS FOR THE HOME. TO CORRESPONDENTS. "Mora."—You do not say if the redness is due to exposure to the sun, to indigestion, erysipelas, or to what other cause it may be attributed. Howenner, you can do no harm, and possibly much good. by bathing the feature in warm water night and morning, afterwa-rds powdering it with oxide of zinc. boradc acid, and starch powder in equal parts. A teaspoonful of carbonate of soda dissolved in tepid water will remove great- ness from the face. Better not use soap to it. SUNBURN AND FRECKLES. A very great many women are distressed by what they consider discolouration6 of the skin. Sunburn is less tenacious than freckles are. Preventives in this, as in most cases, are I better than cure, and freckles, once they establish themselves, are far less amenable to treatment than sunburn is. Before going out it is an excellent plan to rub a cold cream well into the skin. After lightly wiping it off, apply a little good powder, carefully removing all trace of it before going out. This is a very efficacious means of preventing freckles, and especially useful to those who take holiday by the sea. A blue veil or a green vei may not be becoming, but when the sun is hot it is the most efficient protection against freckles and sunburn that can be found. It may be regarded as a choice between evils—the un- becoming veil or the discolouration aforesaid I (writes our lady correspondent) hardly know which of the two a woman solicitous about her looks will conider the lesser evil. A COMPLEXION WASH. A wash said to be very efficient in whiten- ing and removing freckles is prepared accord- ing to this formula, and should be used night and morning:—Powdered gum benzoin, one drachm; nutmeg oil, one drachm; sherry wine, one pint. A little orange flower water should be mixed with the other ingredients I have named. A very old wash, to be applied with a linen cloth before going to bed, con- sists of orange flower water one pint, glycerine one ounce, borax less than a quarter of an ounce. Shake the mixture, and bottle it for use. A SPECIFIC AGAINST INSECT BITES. Now that much time is spent in outdoor pursuits and amusements, not a few of us find the attacks of midges very irritating. To keep the gnats away, apply to faoe and hands a lotion made of the following ingredients:—Glycerine pur, loz.; sal pyreth- rum co., 5oz.; tinct. hamamilia, 2oz. Sponge the mixture over the parts exposed to attack; superfluous liquid can be wiped off. I have tried this remedy, and found it an admirable preventive of insect bites. SUMMER DRINKS. There is always a demand for these simple concoctions, easily made, to assuage thirst. Claret Cup.—Put into a large tumbler a tablespoonful of icing sugar, a slice of lemon, and two slioes of orange; fill the tumbler half full of shaved ice, then fill with claret. Shake the glass well, put a few strawberries on the top, and the drink is ready. Cider Cup.—Put into a large tumbler the thin rind of a lemon, a wineglass of sherry, a. teaspoonful of icing sugar, the squeeze of a lemon, a wineglass of cider, and a little grated nutmeg. Mix well; put in a piece of ice, or add soda-water. A tablespoonful of brandy and a few slioes of cucumber are esteemed an improvement by some persona, in which case more ice or more soda-water may be supplied. Lemon Squa-sh—Put into a tumbler a tea- spoonful of icing sugar with the juice of half a. lemon, and pour on these a bottle of lemonade. Orange Drink.-Slice four oranges and two leraons without peeling the fruit; put them in a pan with half a pound of icing sugar. Pour over two quarts of boiling water. When cold, strain; then it is ready for use. GREEN PEAS EIeTl P!a,m" cook considers that, if peas Httia ^.6ui a *urn' and then mixed with a fix] m a"d chopped mint and a spoon- ful of butter, there is nothing further to be lrj way of excellence. I have ^liflanY,I>ersons wiU a?ree with the the same, variety has its nd green peas cooked French fashion are delicious. Mix well in a stewpan 6oz. of butter. 2oz. flour, pinch of sagar, two pinches of salt, and one of pepper. Put in the pan a quart of young peas, and boiling water enough to cover them. Stir over the fire until the whole boils, then add a small onion and a sprig of parsley. Cook until the peas are tender and the sauce reduced one- half. Before serving take out the onion and parsley, thicken with yolks of two eggs beaten in two dessertspoonfuls of milk. loz. tresh butter, and a few grains of nutmeg. Peas dressed in this manner may be served as a separate course, as asparagus is, other- wise accompany meat in the ordinary way. NASTURTIUM SALAD. One pound of cold potatoes, one pound of tomatoes, two hard-boiled eggs, two teaspoon- fuls of chopped nasturtium seeds and nas- turtium leaves. Slice the potatoes and toma- toes, and place them with the hard-boiled eggs, also sliced, in the centre of a shallow glass dish. Chop a handful of washed nas- turtium leaves, and sprinkle these and the nasturtium seeds into the dish. Pour salad dressing over all. Round the dish place, with their stalks inwards, a garnishing of small well-washed nasturtium leaves, then an inner ring of the flowers, carefully washed and looked over. Let it stand in a oool place for some time before serving.—"The Sow reign." MEAT CHARLOTTE. Remains of cold mutton, stale bread, one or two onions, one pennyworth of parsley, salt and pepper. Mince the mutton, butter a pie- dish and line it with thin slices of stale bread, and moisten with stock or gravy; then put in a layer of the minced meat, chopped onion, chopped parsley, pepper and salt. On the top of this place another layer of bread moistened in the same way, then a laver of meat, onion, and parsley, and proceed 'in the same way until the dish is full, but over the last layer of meat scatter breadcrumbs to cover it and place a few dabs of butter on the top. Bake for half an h™. OD ALBANY [PUDDING. °nn0e8 of one pint of milk, two penny spongecakes, one ounce of ground almonds, three egge Buear ratafia flavouring. Method-Soak thetamW m the milk for an hour, then put it in a pan and let it simmer slowly until it i« quite soft; stir it well. Pound up the sponge- cakes, which should be stale, in a mort^T add to them the ground aJmonds, mix in the tapioca and milk, and let it cool. Beat up the eggs with about two ounces of white sugar, and flavour with a few drops of ratafia. Mix the eggs lightly in with the tapioca and other ingredients. Pour into a buttered mould and steam for an hour and a quarter. Turn out the pudding, sift white sugar over it, and serve with ginger custard eauoe. For the sauce-Mix half a teaspoonful of oornflour to a smooth paate with two ta,blespoonfuls of preserved ginger syrnp, add a well-beaten egg and a gill and a half of milk, and stir it over a slow fire until it thickens. Cort-about one shilling. BOILED FOWL. Stuff the fowl with forcemeat as for roast- ing, rub it well over with flour, and put it into a large saucepan with plenty of hot water, and let it just boil up. Remove all the scum very carefully, and let the fowl simmer very slowly, until done. The more gently a fowl is cooked, the Plumper and whiter it will be. A piece of lean bacon or j ham, boiled in a separate saucepan, may be served with it; or some bacon, rolled and put on skewers, may be done in the oven as for a roast fowl. Make a thick white sauce, and put over the fowl when it is on the dish ready for serving, and send some to table also in a sauce tureen. The sauce should not be poured over the fowl, but put on slowly with a large spoon; that will prevent it from running off the fowl into the dish. The skewepa must be all removed, and all the stock in the inside of the fowl drained out before placing it on the dish. If preferred, a thick sauce of parsley and butter may be used instead of plain white sauce. A lemon should be cut in thin slices, and each slice into triangular pieces, and the dish garnished with them.

MEDICAL. VENTILATION. In our cold, damp, and uncertain climate there are very few houses which are kept sufficiently ventilated. On the Continent, wherever the weather is warmer and less variable, it will be found tha-t doors and windows are more often open than shut. In order to ensure good health we should spend as much time as possible in the open air, as well as keep the air within our houses ae pure as can be. To keep a bouse or room in a healthy state there must be spaces for entry of the outer air, and spaces aleo for the egress of the air which has been breathed and re- breathed. Every time each one breathes a certain amount of air is taken into the lungs, retained there a few seconds, and then expired in a state less pure than when it entered the lungs. Expired air has lost a proportion of its life-supporting oxygen, and contains an excess of carbonic acid gas. and also animal exhalations, other gases, and microbes or ba-cteria. In a small, closed room the air soon becomes so contaminated as to be a danger to health; to spend whole nights or ten hours, for example, in a. small bedroom with door and window shut is likely to lead to headaches, loss of appetite, anaemia, and chronic impurity of the blood. To sleep in such a room, without even a fireplace and chimney, is to invite illness. During daytime, and in almost all weathers, all windows should be left always open, and doore, too, if possible. Unless weather is very severe, it is wise to have one window at least in each bedroom a little open at the top. or else to have one window-pane re-placed by a ventilator. Of late years there has been much talk of the open-air treatment for consumptives, as well as for healthy persons, but it has been so much discussed as a cure for phthisis that people have often forgotten that doctors have always recognised the need of plenty of open air and ventilation to preserve health. There is no doubt that a large share of con- sumptive cases have originated. from breath- ing expired impure air, over and over again, habitually, especially in houses in which there is already a consumptive patient. In a well- managed house there should be no window which is not opened every day, and no chimney should be blocked up. Scurfy Dryness.-M. Morris.—Bub into the scalp the following omtment -Plloca.rpllle nitrate eight grains, wool fat loz., vaseline loz. Excess of Perspiration.—"W- C.Try the effect of daily cold baths, and take ten drops of tincture of steel in a teacupful of water twice a day. Ruptured.—"H. J. M.You have been mis- informed. An operation for the radical cure of rupture may be performed at any age in a suitable case. No truss will cure a rupture. Measles.—"Brighton."—Although not of itself a fatal disease, yet it causes many deaths, because bronchitis and pneumonia so often come on during, or after, attacks of measles. Palsied Tongue.—J. Jonson.-There is a form of palsy which is apt to follow severe attacks of diphtheria, and it may cause loss of voice and difficulty of breathing and swallowing, and is very difficult to cure. Rheumatic Peliosis ("H. G. F.") seems to be the disease which your wife has. It will im- prove if her general health can be improved, but the medicines they gave you at the hospital must also be persevered with. Climate for Asthma.—"J. H s."—It is abso- lutely impossible for anyone to say what climate will suit an asthmatic person. Some do well by the sea, some die there; some do well oil the mountains, others get worse. You can only make experiments. Delicacy after Measles.—W. Selves.—A child of five who after measles does not gain strength, but loses weight, and perspires at night, has probably something wrong with her lungs. Lose no time in getting her chest examined by a doctor. Hair Coming Out.—"A. E. A."—Take two grains of nitrate of pilocarpine, eight grains of quinine hydrochloride, two drachms of glycerine, six drachms of rose-water, and use as a lotion for rubbing into the roots of the hair. (Also The Waiter, Tom Churt.) Nervous Debility.—"I. H. B.We should consider that your ailments might pass off if you take half a teaepoonfal of the ammoniated tincture of quinine in a teacup- ful of water twice a day half an hour before meals. Ugly Nose.—"Henry."—Yes, nose machines are in use, and you will find them advertised. Also yes, a surgical specialist would improve the shape by the injection of paraffin wax, but we do not know of any gentleman at present who does such work. Emetic.—"Hannah. —The word means a medicine used to make a person vomit. Emetics are used to remove poison from the stomach, and also to cause sickness to empty the stomach when indigestible food is giving trouble. The most common emetics are sul- phate of zinc, ipecacuanha, antimonial wine, mustard, or BaIt and water, warm. Megrims.—"Worried J. C."—'The headache attacks are called megrim, and show that you are run down. A strong cup of hot coffee will do them good, but you may also take a few bottles of quinine and iron tonic. Also, why do you not develop your chest? You run risks every day with a flat chest. Consumptive Children.—"F. K.The mar- riage of this consumpthe man to a healthy woman is not to be recommended on medical grounds, but if it is settled it will very likely prove of great benefit to him. The children need not be consumptive, but will probably be delicate. No child is ever born consump- tive, but mav easily become infected after- wards by the father, or mother, or nurse. Ear DLscharge.—"Griff."—Buy a Higginson syringe, use the bone nozzle with a piece of india-rubber tubing on it, to make a soft nozzle; make a lotion of boric acid, a tea- spoonful to half a, pint of water; add a little hot water to it before usingr. and syringe out the ears night and morning, using only moderate force and giving no pain. If a speedy improvement is not made. you must consult a doctor. Put no wool into the ear a.t any time.
