Fashion and Things Feminine. BY MISS IDA MELLER. A Coat with Cretonne Waistcoat. The summer costume coat is open-fronted, and shows a dainty waistcoat of linen, tussore silk, or, newest of all, cretonne—a waistcoat that is removable, for it is quite separate from the coat itself. But apart from the complete waistcoat, made with back-piece, little imi- tation waistcoats are worn, these consisting of a strip of linen, passing round the neck, and developing into a fair-sized square at each end, the two squares meeting at the waist .and thus suggesting the waistcoat. These dainty little dress accessories look very smart in white linen, embroidered on the squares with single sprays of roses and foliage, or other designs. The -iutraway coat trimmed with silk-braid, sketched, is one of the latest models showing a waistcoat of cretonne. It is fastened with a single row of small gilt buttons, and above it is a jabot"of lace. The coat is of grey cloth, trimmed^ with black braid, which borders the fronts, and is arranged in a scroll design laid near the border. The long, plain sleeves are aol braid-trimmed on the cuffs, and are decorated, besides, with cloth buttons.. Some Details of Dress. Vests and yokes are indispensable little ad- juncts that bring to a successful conclusion many of the most charming blouses of the day. The vest, that sets best and is the most secure of its kind is made With armholes and is buttoned or hooked at the back. In our group sketch.two vests, or yokes, One sleeve- less, the other with sleeves, are illustrated, and they could be copied in lace or lace and mus- lin mixed. The sleeveless yoke as sketched is of guipure, while the other one is made of lace insertion and tucked muslin, both having collafbands. Other items in the group repre- sent a stock collar, with bow and ends of printed gauze (this could be copied in chine silk), the ends fringed with chenille balls a shaped collar-band, with cascaded jabot, of flue lace and a single-breasted, fitted waist- coat of checked linen, allied to a vest and a stand-up collar of tucked lawn and Lace inser- tion, with a bow tie of ribbon-velvet at tho neck. Smar ncss is given to some of the rjew checked waistcoats by means' of a line of dark ,ribbon velvet, or silk, along the edge of the cut-away neck. Quick Renovation. The pelisse coat, or other wrap coat, that must needs be cut long in order to completely protect the skirt beneath, runs the danger of wearing out quickly at the hem, and the usual manner of repairing is to unpick the hem and make a fresh one. But a quicker method is to rip through the top portion, turn in the raw edges face to face, tack them, and then machine-stitch them in place. Card-Leaving. The young bride who has had no experience in card-leaving may be glad of a few hints on the subject, so that she may commit no breach of etiquette. A lady's visiting-card is generally about 3i inches by 21 in -size. The name: occupies the centre, the address in smaller type, is printed in the left-hand lower comer, and the "At Home" day is in the right hand corner, some- times at the bottom of the card, sometimes across the top. It is not considered "good form" to use such terms as "senior" or "junior" on a visiting card, in order to distinguish members of a family who possess the same name. The distinction should be made by including the Christian name, such as Mrs (or Mr) Henry Forsyth," Mrs Ronald Forsyth," and so on. The eldest member of the family need not, however, fedd any Christian name, and the younger ohes might substitute initials for Christian names, if preferred. The etiquette of card-leaving is as follows- -The feminine visitor, if the lady of the house is not at home, leaves with the servant who opens the door one of her own cards, and two of her husband's. Her own card is for the lady, her husband's cards are one for the lady and one for her lord. If the mistress of the house is at home, the lady visitor will merely give her name to the servant and leave no card of her own. But on taking her departure she will leave two of her husband's cards on the the hall table, without comment. If,, however, she is accompanied on the visit by her husband, he. on leaving, will slip only one of his own cards on the hall, table—this for. the master of the house. Should the hostess be a widow or unmarried, he will leave no card. After a dance or a dinner it is customary to leave cards on your hostess not later than a week after the event, or to call on the first "At Home" day following the dance or dinner. ¡, When At Home" days are stated on visi- ting cards, calls should be made on these special days, and not promiscupusly on inter- vening ones. Cards, to return thanks for inquiries after an illness, are in the best society specially printed, and run as follows-" Mrs So-and-So returns thanks for kind inquiries or a blank is left for the inquirer's name to be written in after the word for." In other cases, however where it is only desired to send these formal acknowledgments to one or two acquaintances, and it is not worth while, therefore, having cards specially printed "the returns thanks for kind inquiries" is written on the ordinary visiting card following the sender's printed name. Return thanks cards are also sent in acknowledgment of personal calls and cards of condolence respectively made or left on the occasion of a death i but they are not usually despatched until the sender is prepared to see her friends again. Another special card is that on which the letters "P.P.C." (pour prendre conge) are written in the right hand corner. This card intimates that the sender is going away, and her At Home days will be suspended for a time, And is poshed, to friends to avoid unne- cessary calls. These and the acknowledg- ment cards referred to above are, with the exception of bridal cards, the only ones that should be sent by post. The ordinary visitiog card should be left in person. To Make Jam Clear. The following hint on making jam look clear has heen given me by one who has tried it and declares,it to be excellent. If a small piece of quite fresh butter be added to the jam ten minutes before it is done, all scum will disap- pear, and the jam will look beautifully clear. By this method, it is said, skimming jam when boiling it (which reduces the weight of sugar) is unnecessary. Moreover, the addition of butter prevents the jam clinging to the jar when turned out. To Prolong the Life of a Broom. In order to prolong the life of a broQm, steep the fibres in warm water for a few minutes before usingane.w broom, which will thus last longer, for the very dry fibres of brooms are brittle and likely to snap. The same treat- ment is advisable about once a week. Brooms and brushes should be kept hanging up, for they arc apt to spoil sooner if left standing on the floor.

Considerable public sympathy was displayed at the funeral of David John Williams, the victim of the Merthyr May Show fatality. The interment took place on Wednesday afternoon at Cofn Cemetery, the last, rites being performed by the Rev. J. M. Hughes, I pastor of Elim Church. ✓

.■UfWTlT." 11 I' W InBsgSEBI l*M|U UBSaE—SaWSMBIBmi ■III! Bedding Out. It is but four weeks since we had snow and frost. It is, therefore, not surprising that the spring-flowering plants have been much re- tarded. The summer bedding plants have neces- sarily. been kept under glass longer than usual, and they are none the better for this, as it is often impossible to prevent them being crowded while still in the houses, and the temperatures are sometimes higher than is good for them. In some late gardens the spring-flowering plants are just at their best, and their display is quite three weeks later than last year. The Wall-flowers exhibit several new shades of colour, and their effect is very pleasing when such varieties as Eastern Queen, Old Gold, Vulcan, Spanish Queen, and others are grouped together. Runner Beans. Many improved varieties of Runner Beans have been presented to the public during the past few years, and improvement is also to be noticed in the dwarf-growing varieties, and those that arc intermediate between the runner and the dwarf kinds. A great gain has been made in the shape of the pod which, in these improved kinds, is 'shapely, long, has small seeds, and is of excellent edible quality. The plants are, in addition, more fruitful than the older kinds, says a writer in the "Gardeners' Chronicle." A shapely pod can be easily pre- pared for the table, and several of these newer varieties are almost stringless in a young state. The new climbing French Beans are a distinct gain to the cultivators who have not a large space at their disposal, for the longer grotvth enables the plants to bear continuously until the end of the summer, and three or four times the quantity of Beans can be had from them than is produced by plants of the dwarf section. It is the practice in this country to cook Beans when they are almost mature, but their flavour is delicious when cooked whole in a young state, and by this system of serving them there is no waste. By gathering the Beans when young, the plants are enabled to produce other pods freely, and there is no expenditure of the plant energies on the formation of seeds. Hollyhocks. If seeds were sown early in February, the plants should now occupy 5in. or 6in.-pots. This method of raising Hollyhocks is desirable from several points of view. Such plants are less liable to the fungus disease than those raised from cuttings. They grow most freely, and there is always the possibility of obtaining varieteis of extra good quality. Isolated plants are found to be less frequently the subjects of attacks from the disease, and for this reason it is better not to group Hollyhocks too closely together. If they are judiciously intermixed with Pompom and Cactus-flowering Dahlias, the effect is good. Both pla^ts require deep, rich soil and frequent waterings durmg" the summer months. Work in the Garden. As soon as the Grapes on the early vines are ripe the atmosphere of the house must be kept cooler than before. Geraniums about two yeass old are among the most suitable free-flowering plants for v-ases in the garden, and autumn-rooted cuttings, to- gether with Lobelia seedlings, may he used. A suitable compost for Bouvardias is one consisting of good loam, leaf-soil, and sand, and iit should be pressed firmly about the roots at the time of planting. Immediately the young growths of the earlier Potatoes appear above the soil, let the rows be hoed with the flat hoe, and when the growths are three inches above the soil let earthing-up be carried out. ANew Rhubarb. A variety of Rhubarb that appeared to be an exceptionally strong grower and prolific in its foliage was shown at a recerit meeting of the Royal Horticultural Society under the name of Dawes' Challenge. Apart from the re- markable vigour of these some three-year-old stools, with all their bulk of blanched petioi&s showing what strong Rhubarb roots are cap- able of producing, there was nothing remark- able in the variety. The stalks that were shown in bundles at the same time, when cut through; presented á. white flesh rather than a red one, and that was held by the committee to be a decided defect. This variety must not be confounded with Daw's Champion, a vari- ety that has received the certificate of the R.H.S., and which is one of the earliest of Rhubarbs, producing fine deeply-coloured leaf-stalks that are coloured internally as well as on the skin. Deep colouring is always associ. ated with flavour m Rhubarb, and is held as a most valuable feature in thjs plant. For market purposes, deep colour in the stems is indis- pensable, and, because of this, the richly- coloured, early maturing Hawke's Champagne has been the most widely grown for market sale. The older early varieties, such as Linnaeus and Albert, appear to have been quite dis- placed by Hawke's Champagne, but Daw's Champioh is even better than the last-named, and will in time occupy the highest place as a market variety of this fruit, for the successful market growers must have the best and earliest variety. The Overcrowded Kitchen Garden. One of the greatest and most frequent mis- takes of kitchen gardening is that of allowing the crops to become overcrowded through in- sufficient thinning. This applies to^nearly every crop in all kinds of soils. Ten or more plants are frequently allowed to occupy space that is merely sufficient for one plant. Peas and Beans are, perhaps, amongst the first to suffer when treated in this manner. Not only do they yield a deficient crop, but the period of cropping is also of much snorter duration. It is, neverthe- less a good plan to sow the seeds just about as tihick again as it is intended to allow the plants to develop but after this has beendone the thinning must not be neglected. It should be carried out in two operations, and the earlier it is done the better are the results. Oinerarias. Seeds of the various types of this plant should noW be Sown," in order to obtain plants for flowering early next season. The seed pans should be well provided with crocks for drain- age, and on this should be placed a layer ot rough soil,filling the remainder with a mixture of loani.leaf"soil,and sand,that has been passed through a fine sieve." Make the surface soil of the seed pan smooth,and then dip the pan half- way into a tank of water, so that the moisture will travel up the soil, and thoroughly wet the whole. This is a better plan than •watering with a rose, for the surface of the soil is not dis- turbed,, as the moisture runs up by capillarity. The seeds should be sown thinly atfd evenly, and be covered with a thin layer of fine soil, in which bs been placed some leaf-mould. Place a piece of glass over the seed pan, and shade the surface from bright sunshine. Maintain a moist atmosphere and a warmth of about 50 deg. to 55 deg. Begonias. Tuberous rooted Begonias in mixed colours and planted in single beds are very effective for summer flowering, and in late years they have been substituted in many instances for .Pelargoniums. If, however, they are planted in beds, forming part of a geometrical design, each bed should be planted with a variety of one colour. But if reds, pinks, whites, bronzes, and yellows are planted in sufficient quantities the general tendency is for them to appear flat and uninteresting. Therefore it is customary to introduce among them what are termed dot plants. For this purpose Gladioli are commendable, and may be used in named varieties of various colours. They should be planted at the same time as the Begonias. If the latter are planted in suitable soil, they matte numerous roots, grow freely, and flower well. But it must be remembered that they require much moisture, and if some decayed leaves are intermixed with the soil, also a little soot and wood ashes, they will generally succeed better.

VETERAN VILLAGERS. In the village of Holmbush, between Par and St. Austell, Cornwall, there are. living six persons, whose total combined ago is 541 years, the average being just over 90. They were born in the village, and have lived there all their lives. The oldest is Mrs Caroline Opie, aged 96.

NEVER FATIGUED! DOING DOUBLE WORK ON THIS FOOD. A Halesowen business woman, who suffered greatly from acute* indigestion and nervous probation, but won Tier way bacfc to heaKh at last by careful dieting on Grape-Nuts Food, writes,, "For years I suffered from indigestion, nervous exhaustion, and insomnia., consequent upon overwork. Since taking your valuable Grape-Nuts Food, however, J have slept well, and enjoyed far brighter spirits, and been quite free from indigestion. My weight has in- creased by 91bs. during the ten months I have been eating Grape-Nuts, and I both feel and ,11' look quite five years younger. To-day, whenever I get overworked in business I take ftrape Nuts Food four times a day instead of twice, and thei^by get thropgh double the amount of work with little or no fatigue. I would rather dispense with any other article of food than Grape-Nuts. I can- not fully express my thankfulness for the benefits derived from this life-giving and sus- taining food." Name given by Grape-Nuts Co., Ltd., 66, Shoe-lane, London, E.C. Grape-Nuts is a partially pre-digested food, ready- to be absorbed immediately jnto the blood. All the nourishing properties of best wheat and barley are converted by special treatment with heat, moisture, and time into digestible tissue-building or energising food substances. Grape-Nuts is also particularly rich in the valuable phosphates of potash found in the inner envelope of the wheat and barley grains, which are essential for the re- building of grey matter ih nerve and brain cells. There's a. reason for Grape-Nuts. See the Road to Wellville in each packet. Grape-Nuts Biscuits and Wafers are de- lightful nibbles. Most grocers sell them.

THAW'S FATE. Judge Says He is Unsafe. A special cable from New York says;—Judge Morshausen has given his decision in the Thaw case. He declares that Harry Thaw is insane and that it would be unsafe to set him free. He also asserts that Thaw's commitment to the asylum is supported by constitutional authority. What form of insanity Thaw is suffering from is left undecided. Thaw will probably appeal on the constitutional question. Meanwhile he is seeking to be transferred to some asylum other than the Matteawan Asylum for insane criminals. Poughkeepsie, Monday —Mr Justice Mors- hausen has dismissed the application for a writ of habeas corpus made on behalf of Harry Thaw, declaring that he was insane. The Judge also held that Thaw's commitment to an asylum was entirely legal. Thaw will remain in gaol here pending a deci- sion on application for his 'removal to an asylum other than that at Matteawan.— Reuter.

DUMMY LETTER AS DECOY; The four persons charged in connection with an attempt to obtain money by a forged cheque from Parr's Bapk were committed for trial atWestminster on Tuesday. The names of the accused are Geo. Jackson, alias Charles Grande, Edward Fisher, Alfred Auger, and his wife, Annie Auger. It was alleged that the woman, acting on in- structions from the men, employed a District Messenger Boy to go to the Sloane-square branch of Parr's Bank with a chfequfe for £ 160, purporting.tobe sigtiedby Mr W. C. Spink, a local tradesman. The signature, being detected as a forgery, a dummy packet was made up for the messenger boy to take back. The woman did not keep the appointment, but by a subsequent telephone call as to the where- abouts of the letter detectives got on the track of the prisoners. They were arrested at Gloucester-crescent, Regent's Park, when Jackson had just received and opened the dummy letter, and shown its contents to the other prisoners.

BAKERY ON A FLAGSHIP. The official trials have just been successfully concluded of a bakery of the latest design which has been installed on board H.M.S. Leviathan, flagship of the Devonport Division of the Home Fleet. In the trials it was shown that the ovens are in a condition to begin baking about an hour after the fires are lighted, and that a batch of two hundred loaves is ready for drawing in about an hour and a quarter. This is ample to enable the ship's company to be supplied with fresh bread daily. The bakery has been constructed on the main deck. The kneader is of the electric motor-driven type.
