H. Cory sentenced him to one month. Mr. Clement P. Cadle (for the defence) said that the defendant earned 5s. at a sale last Monday, and gave his wife 2s. 6d. Since then he had only earned 15s. He pleaded that to send him to gaol would do no good, but Mr. J. H. Cory remarked that they had been troubled very often with the promise to pay. "THE WORST BOY IN NEWPORT." He is the worst boy in Newport, although he looks so innocent now. He takes small boys out to sleep at night, and has been the cause of many downfalls." This was the I character which Police-constable Hensby gave William Symonds, a boy of sixteen, who was charged, with Daniel M'Neif at Newport on Monday with stealing a shillings- worth off fancy goods from the Newport Pro- vision Market. The constable added that it took him three days to catch Symonds. The Clerk (Mr. T. Summers): A local De Wet, eh? M Neil, who had been under probation, was sent to a reformatory, while Symonds was I ordered to Prison for one month. AN UNPROFITABLE LODGER.

In connection with the lodging-house there is a shop. During the evening, it is alle^- Mike got drunk, and in order to feast him- self still more he went and demanded his money back His request was refused, and in revenge he pioked up six large stones and hurled them through the shop window, smashing the plate-glass, which was wortn over £ 5, and destroying also a number of aB3 sweet bottles, the total damage being assessed at P,8 5s. On Monday he was brought before the magistrates, and com- mitted to take his trial at the next assizes. "A VERY NAUGHTY GIRL." "You are a very naughty little girl," said the Stipendiary at Merthyr Police-court on Tuesday to Mary Blodwen Jenkins, aged twelve, oi laiyoont, who was brought up charged with stealing a watch, the property of David Davies, a collier, of 3, Gladys-street, Caeracca, Pant. On Saturday, the 13th of February, the child called at the house of the prosecutor, selling flower roots, and after she had gone the watch was missed. She admitted to Police-constable Hooper when he arrested her that she had stolen it, and said she had sold it to a man, but she failed to give a sufficiently precise description of the buyer to enable him to be traced. The Bench remanded the prisoner to the work- house for a week. AN ARAB'S DEFENCE. Entering Cardiff Police-court dock on Monday James Abdullah (26). a very tall, but slender, Arab, who was formerly in the Bashi- Bazouk army, made a solemn salute to the magistrates. The charge was of stealing 12s. 6d., a stamp, and a pawn-ticket, together with a puree. It was a sordid story. The prisoner met Laura Davies, whom he accom- panied to No. 1, loudo ur-sq-uare, and the purse was alleged to have been taken from a bed. To Police-constable Fdgar Green defendant said, "She took 11s. from me last night—my money; I took back this morn- ing." Prisoner now said, "I got my own back, that's all. If I wanted to steal money, I wouldn't steal from a poor black woman, I steel 2,000 guineas from a European, and go homo to my country." He was fined 10s., or n»ven days. I

FASHIONS FOR WOMEN. s' LATEST NOVELTIES IN THE i WORLD OF DRESS. I How truly wicked a thing is tradition! J Because it has become the custom to stigma- tise British women as the worst dressers in the universe, this deplorable reputation fixes j itself to us despite the obvious injustice of the imputation. Certainly, in this part of the country we have acquired a distinct understanding of the power of the simple silhouette. Together with this, many of us have acquired a certain "chic," which is a thing apart., and quite indefinable. We are n'longer satisfied with ing merely clothed; our garments are require to express our individuality and be in harmony with our surroundings. Whether oue two guineas or twenty guineas to sP6n.d on a gown, the desire to be up-to-date d well-dresSed is common to rich and poor of uS alike. To quote Kipling, The colonl's lady and Judy O'Grady are sisters unr their skins." Several afternoon teas 1 have been to recently have resolved themselves into a mission on clothes; we all alike in our poverty of something to r, the general finding being that our millinery, and foot-wear were all alike dire need of immediate attention. THE NEW COAT AND PlocK SUIT. It always goes to my heart have to part with my old clothes, and it with much surprise I learned how man) others have the same feeling. Somehow, lajwajrg think new clothes are like new a<jqua^^ances. they may be altogether charming everything one could wish. On the othei hand. they may be very much otherwise; d the truth is. one rather shirks the t.r°u¡¡;; of flnding this out. Perhaps, it is lazinessQn my part, 1' or ma.y I call it an aversion to i^rrj,p Any- how, I do so like people who are to know and frocks which are easy to t on For I this reason, I a.m just longing a own one of these new coat-and-frock s^^which are very new and quite distinct froi the coat- and-skirt suit that has held a ha place in our esteem for so many years. frock is mostly of princess design, wltbemisette and sleeves of a different matena. Thus. a cloth princess would have sleees ad chemi- sette of ninon or net; but, if vVet were chosen for the frock, then it more j1 appropriate to have sleeves and ^ujjggtte of embroidered lace or some equa., hand. I some material. AN ARTLSTPC FROOIC At one of these afternoon teas eady mentioned I made the acquaintance^ the; most artistic frock I have seen for a day. It was made in velvet of a s^ Bseda < shade, quite tight-fitting, the 'K)dl?eW in with a chemisette of cream silk em, jered ] in green and further ornamented a £ yoke of guipure. The long sleeve of Vjvet i was folded across the arm its entire lC^ ] and finished at the wrist with a frill or e' t Over this was worn a peplum of a d £ shade of velvet; its elegance was undoir ( Small wonder that the wearer seem to purr with satisfied vanity and a € sense of well-being! t WHAT TO AVOID. 1 Before I finish with the matter of dresL Ii must tell you of some of the failures I ht d met with this winter, just by way of givt j, ypu a warning what to avoid. No. 1 was c dress of chalky blue cloth elaborately tuck< (mostly in the wrong places), inlet with chcai yellowy lace, also mostly in the wrong placet No. 2 was an evening dress of green crepes with a swathed bodice and a ready-mad* belt of gilt elastio, unholstered with gIlt. studs—such as we arc accustomed to see on our dining-room chairs—and fastened with a huge gilt and turquoise buckle. The third exa.mple will. I feel sure, be sufficient to quote on the what to avoid question. This was also an evening dress made of pink net, besprinkled with little leggy-looking bows of black ribbon velvet, which made one wondei if they had arrived at the spider stage of alcoholism unbeknown to one's self. A wrea/th of much crumpled green leaves, a long nose, and very little ohin complete this last a.wful example. TOQUES. There is a tide in the affairs of men which, taken at the flood, leads on to for- tune." So wrote the Immortal Bard. Ful- filling the proverb, "Fools rush in," Ac., I will paraphrase it. "There is a tide in the affairs of women" which leads to the pur- chase of new headgear and, let us fondly hope, through that to fame and fortune. Any- way, these oright, sunny days soon reveal to as the appalling fact tpat our cherished winter hats are hopelessly de mode. Alas, the mutations of fashion and season have labelled them "Iohabod!" all of them, "Merry Widows" and "Busbys" alike. The new toques are veritable masterpieces of mys- tery; in the hand they resemble an inverted flower-pot more than anything else. On the bwixl well, on some heads—they look charm- ing; on other he-ada. that is another story. It is useless for you to say, I shall not wear them,' because you will. You may not wear them jnst at first, but in the end you will suooumb. Flower toques are already to be seen. and very pretty they are. Lilies of the valley are first favourites, then violet; lilac, and wild hyacinth are good seconds. VEILS. What a blessing complexion vWIs are in this weather! Here. in Cardiff, our faces are simply being skinned by the east wind. The veil I like beat is a wide-meshed black Rus- sian nd. with a lining of the filmiest white gauze. Thin as it is, the protection afforded to a sensitive chin by its use is considerable. I HINTS OX REMOVALS. The month of March generally ushers in a perfect epidemic of removals. The last gene- ration used to say that three removals were as bad as a are, but in these days of experi- enced workmen and the many devices for the eoonomy of labour, that saying has lost a great deal of its significance. Still, there is always a more or less amount of discomfort attendant upon a removal which makes it something rather to be dreaded, not to speak of our anxiety of mirfd respecting the safety of our cherished ohattels. It is. how- ever. possible to mitigate these evils to some extent by personal supervision and takin" a few simple precautions, which are hardly" to be expected of workpeople who are not familiar either with the furniture or the house, and capnot, therefore, arrange so methodically as one who,is acquainted with every detail. First, it is of the greatest im- portance only to accept estimates from firms of well-known respectability and reliability. Secondly, it is not advisable to choose the lowest .estimate simply because it is the lowest. Be most careful about your contract, and should your furniture have to go by rail. be sure that you get it quoted for per ton not per cwt. I can speak of this through painful experience. Recently, through accept- ing the latter quotation. I was charged £4 per ton as against s, 6<1.. which the railway people would have charged plus cartage from station to new house. In this case the goods were corning from a store all ready packed. and nearly all the cases were my own. My I mistake was in not writing to the railway offices before signing the contract. A different action will be adopted on a future occasion. Before removal Operations are really com- menced, the new dwelling should be prepared. The sanitary arrangements should be thoroughly inspected before the lease is signed, chimneys swept, and every room in the house thoroughly cleaned and aired by large fires for at least a couple of days. Tho next step is to take the measurements of the various rooms, and arrange how the different pieces of furniture will stand, then each piece can be carried direct to the position it vi oc?uPy- Each room should be num- bered, with the figure conspicuously displayed on the door; then everything belonging to the different rooms labelled with their respective on the door; then everything belonging to the different rooms labelled with their respective n1um^ers* If this method i.s pursued and clearly-written instructions given, it will be nearly impossible to make a mistake. Beds nearly impossible to make a mistake. Beds should be carefully marked, and the mat- tresses, pillows, blankets, Ac., all numbered so that one part of a bed and its belonging may not be allotted to another with which it has no connection. Removals conducted i ) this manner can certainly be done with much less trouble and a decided economy of time. I LENTEN FARE. On turning to my housekeeping book, I find March promises us a liberal variety of I fish, among which, perhaps, brill, bream, eels, flounders, halibut, haddock, herrings. mackerel, soles, skate, and whitebait are the more popular. Mackerel, said to be suoh an indigestible fish, filleted and cooked in the fallowing manner, will. I am sure, be appre- ciated—After filleting the fish, cut each piece in two. season with pepper, salt, lemon juice, and arrange thus on a buttered dish: First, a piece of fish, then a slice of tomato and so on. until all are used. Pour over a little stock made from the bones, cover with a buttered paper, and oook in the oven for wh'ovft^TV*8- Dish UP' mix the st°ek in fls}! was cooked with a little brown sSd n,2 7\ a,ml flnal,y stir in a good tbTLfc butter" Po"r the sauce over the fish, and serve very hot. HA.DDOOK WITH HOLLANDAJSE SAUOB Take large fresh haddock, and put it in a nsli-kettle with plenty of boiling water a carrot, an onion, whole pepper, salt, and a sprig of parsley; let the fish simmer at the side of the stove for fifteen minutes, and whewdone dish on a napkin. For the sauce in its more homely form. melt two ounces of butter in a saucepan, mix with it a dessert- spoonful of flour, and when oooked add gra- dually a tea-upful and a half of the boiling water in which the haddock has been cooked, and continue to stir until it boils. Then, take it from the fire, and strain it on to the yoliss of two eggs. which have been beaten ap with the jnice of half a lemon, add pepper iIond salt to taste, and serve at once in a taMcoboeA.
