Fashions and Things Feminine.

Fashions and Things Feminine. By MISS IDA MELLER. Warm Over-Coats. Although good furs grow dearer and dearer erery year and are prohibitive to all but the rich, the skill of the furrier in dressing and clipping furs and of the dyer in giving to the cheaper furs the hue of rare sable or similar costly pelts, annually improves and puts within the reach of the average purse the possession of really good-lookjng fur sets, or coats, that appear to be worth considerably more than ,they cost and give excellent wear. A fur coat is one of the most useful pos- sessions for the winter months, being unharmed by rain, giving the maximum of warmth, and possessing a certain richness of appearance beyond that of a cloth coat. If furs are care- fully worn and put away they warrant-their cost over and over again. The cloth coat with fur collar is also a good friend in winter, the collar being of the adapt- able type that turns up high to the ears or rolls over at will. An old fur coat, from which good wear has been obtained, may be cut up to ad- vantage for the purpose of forming a deep collar and pair of cuffi to a 4inter coat of cloth or frieze. The over-coat of frieze, again, with roll- fronts faced with their own material, is a very useful wrap for. those who are out and about a great deal. In choosing a wrap of the sort a light-weight material is important. Serge, too, in navy-blue, makes up well for winter over- coats, the waists belted with black patent leather. For the business girl, one of the most useful wraps is a long ulster of knap cloth, thick serge, box cloth, or some such material, and a simple design for the making up of such a coat is suggested in our sketch. This over-coat might be carried out in any of the materials named, or in lambswool, and useful colours for the purpose would be navy-blue, broWn, or green. The coat is double-breasted, and fastens with large buttons of smoke-pearl or imitation tortoise-shell, and is provided with a large pocket on the right hip. The bodice and sleeves should be lined ybut the skirt of the coat requires no lining. The quantity of material needed is about five yards of double- width stuff. About Bloudts and Hats. Various editions of the popular one-piece blouse have made their appearance, and dress- makers ar6 trying to invent a means of ttoing away with the rather unbecoming fulness that is apt to occur in the region of the under-arms and affords, a rrievance, often urged, against ifcbis otherwise pretty little blouse. The baggi- ness near the arme is less noticeable when the blouse is gathered at the neck af:d again at the waist, and very pretty is a model made in this way and composed of mignonette-green cash- mere, with a band of silk to match holding the fulness at the top-the neck itself cut low and round and showing above it a glimpse of ecru net, of which the under-sleeves are made. The short upper sleeves of cashmere are bordered with mignonette silk in harmony with the neck-band, and the latter, it should be added, is cut with two stole-ends in front. A little ruse adopted successfully by clever dressmakers in their endeavour to render the one-piece blouse more becoming to the figure is to make a few small tucks on the inner side of each sleeve, near the top. This holds the fulness in place and gives shapeliness to the blouse, lifting, the material just where it requires support.. *■ Nothing so simple as the one-piece blouse has surely ever before sounded the tip-top note of fashion. The present trelid of modes, however, favours' the plainer side of dress, and is con. cernedchiefiy with "line" and keeping the silhouette sharp and clearly defined. At the same time, we live in a period of beautiful em. broideries, and many a trimmed dress, though seemingly simple, boasts- costly hand-work that renders the toilette possible only to those with well -filled' purses. Now a word about hats. They are wdm lower then ever over the forehead, and from a profile point of view the eyes are completely concealed. Crowns are high and of the well-known jam- pot, or, chimney-pot type, bound round with wide ribbon or piece silk, arranged in a huge bow at the left side. The hat illustrated is typical -of this new and popular vogue. It is of blue felt trimmed with silk to match, and is a good style for hardy, everyday wear. Very/smart, too, are the hats of similar shape made of black velvet, with a feather-spray starting from the front and held by a bow of gold tinsel ribbon. Care of the Teeth. There is a right and a wrong way of per- forming the simplest task-en that of brush- ing the teeth, and many who are most particular in matters of cleanliness and arc careful to use the tooth-brush ■ night and morning may yet fail in using the brush properly, and thus render their efforts to a great extent valueless. The tooth-brush should be used brisjtly and firmly, and the back of the teeth as well as the front should feel its touch. This is a point neglected by a great miny who are, neverthe- less, scrupulously clean. Every possible effort should be made daily to remove accumulations from between the teeth. and, it the tooth-brush in itself is not sufficient for the purpose, a thread of sewing silk should be pressed into the service and drawn between the teeth. To Wash Corsits. If corsets n"e good ones and steels are not used to stiff ;n them, it is an easy matter to wash them successfully at home. Damp the corsets well. and place them on a board. Brush them with a soft brush-an old nail brush preferably—dipped in a streng lather of soap, and rinse them occasionally to get rid of the soil. Repeat the scrubbing and rinsiilg until the corsets arc quite clean, then hang them in the air to dry. If it is desirable to stiffen the stays, starch them with boilincc starch; then dry them in the air as before, and to make them smooth press them with a hot iron.
. VEGETABLES AND FRUIT.

VEGETABLES AND FRUIT. Brussels Sprouts—and. indeed, all vigorous tall Kales and Broccoli—should now be di- vested of their ripening, discoloured lower leaves. Even those upon the former will freely snap off at-their base if bent suddenly down- ward without injury to the Sprouts. Do not strip the upper healthy leaves too severely at this time, as to do so will check root action as well as the further extension of the plants, and swelling of the Sprouts. Clear the removed leaves and all wJedsoft the ground. At this time of the year, where fowls can do no harm to vegetables or flowers, or where the fruit garden can be netted or wired in, it is a good plan to allow them to run amongst the trees and bushes and to scratch the soil. as great quantities of insects, both in the moth and in chrysaloid state, or as eggs or in other forms, are thus destroyed. If whilst the fowls are thus scratching the soil for several inches deep be forked up occasionally, insect life of many and numerous forms will be brought to an end. Of great use in the autumn and winter is the Winter Radish. Though rather strong, < the flavour is very appetising, but they are liked best if used before they are full, grown. The seed should have been sown in July, and again in August, in driUs 8in. or'9in. apart, and the plants gradually thinned out as re- quired for use until they stand about Gin. apart. Those for winter salads should be taken up in November, before severe frost, and stored in sand, like Carrots. The roots should be sliced. The best kinds are Munich White (a very fine variety), the Black Spanish (with white flesh), and the Scarlet or Rose-coloured China. If the two last are sown at the same time, they will become fit for the table in suc- cession. A good variety for use during the autumn is the Long-leaved White Chinese, whic h is very tender and of delicate, pleasant flavour. • • • • In the Flower Sarden. Scillas and Chionodoxas hybridise easily, and the hybrids are called Chionoscillas. They are beeautiful flowers, combining the features of ¡10th of the parents, but, when well selected, superior to either of these. They flower very freely. and, although they do not increase rapidly, are excellent garden plants for the rockery or the choice bulb border, while they are also every whit as hardy as their parents. Some of the hybrids occur in the native regions of the Chiono- doxa, and have been found amoiig imported bulbs. Three Hyacinth bulbs can be grown to make a good display in a six-inch pot. If good compost is used and manurial waterings supplied from the time the spikes appear they succeed admirably. Best compost for them is three-parts rough, fibrous loam, one part de- dofnposed manure. and a liberal dash of silver sand. Place this to moderate depth over good drainage, fix each bulb upon it moderately firm, and surround them with the compost so that their apices are barely buried. This com- post should be moderately ist, in which case they will not require watering. Stand the pots upon ashes or a hard base, and surround them with ashes or fibre, heaping it up two or three inches above the rims of the pots. There they will have to remain fur about three months, when they shouldobe examined, and if growing freely, having become well rooted., may be transferred either to a glass structure or to a window frame. One of the most striking of the Michaelmas Daisies is the Italian Rtarwort, which has bright blue yellow-centred flowers fully 2in. in diameter, and standing up well above the profuse dark green foliage. Rarely exceeding 2ft. in height, it might be classed as an excel- lent bedding plant. It is easy to cultivate, and although dying down to the ground in win- ter, it shoots up as strong as ever the follow- ing spring. It is better, however, in the case of plants to be used for bedding purposes to take them up early in spring and divide them, the*outside shoots being Used again and the centre thrown away, as it is often dead or weak, so that the unattended plants develop a shabby habit. Although thev thrive best in a deep fresh soil, with pletny of manure, these conditions are not absolutely essential to Asters, many of them giving "aUy good re- sults in soils so poor that on.y the hardiest and best-natured plants will grow in them. The practice of baking the soil finds the strong support of a writer in a contemporary, who declares that by it all insects, fungus, and weeds are totally destroyed; and the partial carbonisation seems to be of great benefit also. For Carnations it is especially good, and it is, he says, the secret of the suc- cess of one of the principal prize-winners, whose plants are, in consequence, always free from fungus, and are healthy in the extreme. In experiments made by him, the difference in the plants grown in baked soil as compared to those grown in the same soil left unbaked was simply marvellous, and the result with long-spurred Aquilegia will be a good ex- ample. The seed was sown in August, 1903. Those sown in the baked soil germinated without a miss, the plants were strong and healthy, and were soon twice the size of the others. Not a weed WM seen. They were in flower the following June, and are now huge plants covered with flowers. Those grown in the unbaked Boil are now in flower for the first time, and have only a few blooms, while the plants themselves are not half so big. The greenhouse or conservatory should always receive a thorough cleansing before storing it with winter occupants. To do this, all the movable plants should be taken outside or placed at one end of the house then prune back any deciduous climbers, removing all old or useless wood as far as practicable, and so regulating thp remaining shoots as to admit the greatest amount of light, which is abso- lutely necessary to the well-being of the plants in growth during our sunless winter season. If time will not admit of the glass and wood being thoroughly washed, a good syringing with a disinfectant should be given, so as to reach every crevice and destroy the vermin that have been so plentiful this season. Stakes, matting, empty pots, andall such things that are not absolutely wanted should be cleared away, for these unsightly oddments are too often allowed to accumulate. Having prepared the house, arrange the plants according to their height, the amount of light they receive, and in such order as will secure the finest effect possible under the circumstances.

TO STOP HAIR FROMFALLING OUT. There are doubtless few of our readers who do not suffer more or less from falling hair— the forerunner of baldness. While there are several causes for this annoying condition, it is in nine cases out of ten due to the dandruff germ, which, by penetrating the hair root, des- troys the vitality thereof and relaxes the muscular tissues which hold and protect the hair sac. If permitted to remain in undis- turbed possession, the dandruff germ eoon des- troys the life of the hair root, and pei-manent baldness ensues. To destroy the dandruff germ, stop hair from falling out, and prevent baldness, we know of nothing so effective as to rub into the scalp morning and night with the finger tips a lotion which any chemist can pre- pare by mixing 3 ounces. Bay Rum with 1 ounce Lavona de Corrfposee and 1 Menthol Crystals. The addition of. a spoonful of French Fon Fleur Perfume gives a peculiarly lasting and pleasing odour that is greatly ap- preciated by many. Used as indicated above, this tonic is unequalled. It is absolutely harm- less, contains no colouring matter, and many claim that it has restored their grey hair to its original colour. CAUTION.—Owing to the peculiar hair- growing properties of this preparation readers ioc advised not to apply wbe. c hai" is not desired. x 19908

Messrs Sparks, Treharne, and Densham, chemists, Bute-street, were the defendants in a summons brought at Cardiff on Wednesday by Mr Harry Moon, London,an official of the Phar- maceutical Society. The alleged offence was ol that they sold a bottle containing poison which did not show the correct address where the article was purchased. Mr Lewis Morgan, who prosecuted, stated that the firm carried on business at London, Cardiff, and Barry, and the bottle which was sold in Cardiff only showed the London address. Mr Ivor Vachell said his client- were a lead- ,ing firm in London, and a certain amount of jealousy had arisen amongst Cardiff chemists on account of their success at Cardiff Docks. His defence was that the firm had no retail lousiness premises at Cardiff or Barry, and only supplied tlie ships at these ports whole- sale. j The Deputy Stipendiary (Mr Raymund Allen) stated that the Art was clear on the matter, and since the íiMTl had given their head address he could not convict.

Deadly Diphtheria. I I HAVERFORDWEST EPIDEMIC. EName Put Upon the Schools. Sensational allegations as to the spread of diphtheria by the Haverfordwest schools were made on Wednesday at the monthly meeti"~ of the Haverfordwest Rural District Council el, Mr Gibbon, sanitary inspector for the Soutu I District, r-eported that two cases of diphtheria had been notified. Both children had been att -nding one of the elementary schools at I Haverfordwest. The Rev. Baring Gould said there were numerous complaints that diphtheriajoriginated I in the schools, and he desired to know what steps were taken for efficiently cleansing the Haverfordwest schools. Only last week there was a fatal case and other cases now existing, was a fatal case and other cases now existing, in adjoining houses in City-road. Considering the number of fatal cases in Haverfordwest, it was very important to know what steps were being taken in the matter. Mr W. Howell Walters said that in the old days the schools were always washed out and properly disinfected once a week. Now, he supposed, for reasons of economy, the schools were only washed out once a month, and dis- infectants could not be obtained for the schools except by special order and as a special favour. It had been pointed out to him by a com- petent person that as soon as the Haverford- west schools were closed the outbreak of diph- theria ceased, but the moment the schools re- opened the outbreak occurred again. Mr Lloyd Lewis That is a rather serious re- flection on Haverfordwest. Rev. Baring Gould There has been a con- siderable increase in the number of cases since the schools were reopened in September. It was decided to make representations on the matter to the Pembrokeshire Education Committee. Petition fer Isolation Hospital. The need of an isolation hospital for infec- tious diseases in Mid-Pembrokeshire is engag- ing the attention of various local authorities, and the county Sanitary Committee are con- sidering a sefceme. At Tuesday night's meet- ing of the Haverfordwest Town Council Dr. Brigstock, medical officer, said that at present he was very much crippled in daaling with in- fectious disease, because there were no means of isolating patients. Recently a case occurred in one of the common lodging-houses, and he understood that the guardians could call, on the sanitary authorities to provide a place for the reception of cases of infectious disease. A petition in favour of a scheme was adopted.

CONVICT'S QUEER STORY. Judge Asked to Confirm It. An astounding story was told at the London Sessions by a convict who protested that he was not a convict, and had been pwb- licly proclaimed to be unr-onvicted. Seventy- four years of age, greyhaired, tn(I bent, Wil- liam Kirk, the man in question, caused a sen- sation as he told hi3 story. I was publicly proclaimed by Judge Wal- lace himself to be an unconvicted man." he said. Previous to that his lordship allowed a constable to obtain a false conviction by false representations, but no sooner did, the jury give the verdict than he annulled it, saying tliat I was to be discharged and compensated for the time I had unjustly served." A prison doctor having certified Kirk as sane, he was tried before Mr Love- land, K.C., yesterday. Ho repeated his assertion that he had been unjustly im- prisoned, stating that after Judge Wallace had quashed his conviction he was removed to prison under the belief that when the formalities had been carried out lie would be discharged. Instead, th' governor of the gaol wanted him to sign a declaration that he was a legalised convict." He refused, and was kept in prison. When liberated the warder wished to give him a licence, but he would not take it because he was not a legalised convict." He failed to report him- self to the police. He had sent ai memorial to the Home Secretary asking that he might be discharged. Asked if he wished to call any witnesses, the accused said he would like Mr R. Wallace, K.C., to speak as to the wrongful conviction. Unhappily for Kirk, Mr Wallace, K.C., was unable to say anything about him except that last February he revoked his licence. That being so. Kirk, of course, was lia.blc\ to report himself, and for failure to do so he was now sentenced to three months' hard labour.

I BABY DODD. Value of Virollna case of CONSUMPTION J. DODD, of Main Street, Raven- glass, Cumberland, writes:— "From birth up to eightmonths old my little girl had a fight between life and death.
