FEMININE FASHIONS. WOMAN'S DISREGARD OF THE SEASONS. about present-day modes is that women appear to ignore the division of the seasons. For instance, cold aa this is, we 6so blouses of voile, crepe de chine, a,nd similar thin and ever, transparent inatoriais worn. A cloth fekirt usually accompaJiies a blouse of the kind referred to, but it is really more essential to health that tho uppnr portion of the figure be better protected from coid than the lower half, supposing chQic8 was restricted to one or other. How a>oonifthed our grandmothers would have boon at the airy fa-briea we put on in cold weather! They are, indeed, a contrast to those our ancestors used to wear! VOILE. When a.re of tea "put to" when a sudden invitation arrives for an iu expensive, but dressy skirt. Most, of us possess a dressy blouse, and, therefore, are not pressed hard for that accessory to ta evening toilette. Some London firms make a s,peciality of well-cut, but low-priced skirt3, and tho&e I have seen in hlaek seem very much to be commended. The "Anemone wool voile robe, which is sold for only a. fraction over a guinea, is really desirable. There are graduated vertical tuclcs on the hip3. which are nicely fitted to the ehape. Near the knees are run four graduated tiicks going round tbo figure; below them a very fuil deep floOT«i appears, nea-r the edge is tucked to correspond with the upper lytrt ¡ of the dre.56. This skirt is entirely finiehed with the exception of the back seam, and the same style can be had in silk voile, a, trmgparomt fabric of extreme tenacity oem- bined with the soft draping qualities of chiffon. The price of this skirt is just under twenty-five shillings, and it is stocked in black, cream, navy, nut brown, dark brown, 6ilver grey, pastel, reseda green, biscuit, aJid porcelain blue severally. A very wide range of colours these, from which easy choice can bo made. Another ready-made dress gkirt, which costs a trifle Ices than two sovereigns, i.9 "The Andromeda," made in rhiffon taffeta, gracefully fas-hioned with, fine gra-duated tucks oq the hips. It has a flat apron front, terminating in two deep tricks, which com- pl{,te the upper half of the skirt. A full spreading flounce is attached by graduated gauginsrs, finished by very deep tucks (three). This skirt is based cn Paris ideas of smart- nesss. Like mo<?t ready-made skirts, the black seam ie left open, so that the nkirt may be adjusted to the figure of the buyer. The "Andromeda" caa be had iu a very wide ramae of colours, but any other shade not in stock can be made to order in a week. or in less time probably. Corresponding material for bodice or blouse enn be bought where the skirt is fold. Wool-voile costs two Fhillrags a yard. Siik voile is just over half a crown. Silk taffeta, forty-four inches wide, is priced a fraction under five ehillings the yard. CASEMENT CLOTH. I I have often mentioned with approbation casement cloth It is, however, a misleading na-me. for the material is cotton, not cloth, which eugge.sts a material ma,de of wool. Casement cloth costs eevenpence halfpenny a yard. It is dyed in at least thirty-six different colours—fast colours all of them, be it remembered. Thifl fabric makes up into frocks admirably, and does not exhibit the tiresome propensity to crea.se that is a great drawback to linen when made into dresses. In pale blue a dress or costume of rasement cloth, trimmed coa.rpo lace inser- tion on skirt a.nd bodice, is really enviable, the broad band of insertion on the sk-trt being set on just above the wide hem. GLOVES. HaTid coverings are an expensive item of drees, and gloves not suited to the toilette are considered bad taste, a stricture that makes it necessary to have several pairs of gloves in use. Now, it is certain that many women make one pair of gloves do duty with every costume until they are no longer fit for ,ervice, and then they purchase another pair- to serve in like manner, mistakenly supposing it is economical eo to do. A very mietakeji idea. of economy this. With every new dress for out-of-door wear a padr of gloves^ to match ought to be bought. When I ray match," I mean that the colour of the gloves should tone with that of the drees, and they should be worn with that parti- cular dress alone. Care in pulling tho gloves into shape after prolongs their existence, and tends to keep them shapely aa when new. Yet how ofien we see gloves tatvCTL from the hands a.nd thrown aside just as they were removed, without any attempt at straightening them out; consequently, they lose their outline very soon, and look baggy a,nd untidy. For comfort. Biarritz gloves with elastic at the wrists are not to he They have retnxned to TIS again after long banishment, those in pale colours, without doubt, being the nicest to wear. A certain firm in London can be depend.ed on to supply by post the newest and best make of gloves at a reasonable price. Anyone sending an old well-fitting glove, and giving a pattern of colour required, with prioo it is desired to pay, including a penny for postage, will bo as carefully served aq if personal selection had made. It is a,1w-a,ys better to buy gloves from a shop where there is a. very brisk rale for them. No matter how fine the kid, by exposure to the air it becomes dry there- fore. stiff, and is then disposed to' crack The fortunate woman who has a few pair* of gloves presented to her should pnt not in TIFlC in a. wide-mouth glass bottle, and finally seal the cork. In this way gloVû3 ma.v be kept a long time supple as when new, and will not he mildewed, as gloves exposed to the air usually become. BISOtTT COLOURED FROCKS. There is a great vogue for costumes of this character, a.nd in order to give needed relief I su ggert that tho hat ohould be of Eernc vivid ool -onr. I have peen in this co-nnection bright blue straw hats, trimmed with red roses and forget>Tr:e-TK/fs, or pink straw trimmed with variegated tulips. Some strong colour affording a powerful oontrast is neces- sary to redeem a pale coloured costume. USEFUL HATS FOR MOTORING Are made of soft straw, trimmed eimply with straw bands, rosettes, or bows. A new shape for a motoring liat ia made like a. mortar- board or college cap in straw, a veil of gauze heing drawn through a flat ring of straw set at the back, and thert tied in a big bow beneath the chin. For smart hats to wear with dressy costumes a. profusion of flowers in mixed colours is seen. Pink roses and blue air-bells arc used on moss green 6traw3, supplemented by silk ribbon shot with greem in pale shades of that colour. COATS AND SKIRT?. Ma.ny charming coats and skirts are being made of ivory white cloth, a.nd of cream serge 311-- The coat may be of Eton shape, or be cut bolero fashion, showing a narrow w::st and rklve-m and collar turned back with cloth in some pale shade of lilac or leaf green, in which case the ha.t wcrn should represent one of those colours, meaning the colour chosen for the collar, &c. BLACK AND PINTT. With light dretsses what looks better than a black ha-t ? Laoo and net are again used for tiheee all-round useful hats. The crown, if flat, is covercd entirely with pink roses, the brim being lifted off the hair in front fry a broad pink satin bandeau. A cluster of roees on oae side and a, knot of pink satin on the other oompletes the hat. TO DARKEN PIYE WOOD. To make it look like walnut wood dissolve in a pdnt of boiling water two ounoes of sal- soda heated to boiling point, then add three ounces of bichromate of potash—sometimes known as red chromate of potah-alid eight ounces of vandyke brown, with just enough water to moisten. After being a,pplied to the woodwork it will take oil or varnish we'l. TO RENOVATE LEATHER-COVERED FURNI- TURE. I/cather -which has become shabby by reason of wear cau be renovated by using brown hard varnish two parts, French polish one part. Mix thoroughly. Another recipe eaya black la-pan thinned with turpentine. Clean the leathr first with warm water, but use no soap, and when quite dry apply either of the above varnishes. The fi.rst-na.Taed will turn the leather a deep brown. The second preparation I describe will make it nearly black. INK bTAlNR Can be removed from woollen table oovers and carpets by putting a. teaspoonfu] of oxalic acid in a cupful of warm water. Wash the stains therewith, after which the prooong iruft be completed with clean cold water to remove the acid. A HINT. When putting up curtains which are draped in a low room put the cornice to which the curtains are fastened close to the ceiling, even if the windows are put lower. This gives the effect of greater height to a room The curtains me-eting at the top conceal the wall. AN EXCELLENT DRESSING FOR THE HAIR. The following recipe if realty a valuable one, and need only lie tried to prove its excellence: —Bay rum, two ounces; oil of cilovefi, ten drops; spirits of lavender, four ounces; pherrie, two ounces; ether, half an ounce. BAT RUM. This popular mixture may he easily mode, and the irsker will then be euro of it.8 quality. It is very refreshing if kponged over the body after a bath. After shaving it is pleasant also. It is beneficial as a tonic for the hssir added to other ingredients, To make bay rttm take French proof spirit, Mu.i A aailMn extract of bay, tknw onmow.

G.It is a good defense to a prosecution for bigamy if it is proved that the first hnsband has been con- tinually absent from the person charged for the space of seven years last past before the second marriage, and has not been known by such person to have been living within that time, or if the person had a bona-fide belief. on reasonable gronnds, that the husband bad died before the second marria. and this even though the eeven yeart; had not expired. If, however, it should ultimately prove that the first husband was living at the time of the second marriage, such marriage would be void, and any children of it illegitimate. The only really safe course is to obtain a. divorce.
