HOME AND FASHION. A LETTER FOR MOTHERS AND DAUGHTERS. EY MADAME ROSE, WINTER COLOURS. ( Y far the greater number of the new winter costumes are carried out in rich and delightful shades which irresistibly suggest tho warm, glowing colours of autumn tints. For instance, dahlia-red," one of the leading favourites-a, beautiful shade somewhat ap- proaching in colour the stmng dark crim- son of an autumnal Virginia creeper. Then there are chry^anthernum-red — a delicious red- dish-bronze blackberry-red—the exact shade of the blackberry leaf when it changes colour; blackborry-purplc-tho colour of the berry and last, though not the least beautiful, a new and very becoming tone of brown exactly like the colour of a beech leaf in late autumn.

A SMART AND USEFUL PETTICOAT. BRAID AGAIN.—Quite the latest and smartest trimming for underskirts is braid. In the case of elaborate silk petticoats the braid is usually also of silk, either plain, of varied intermixed shades, or woven with a tinsol thread of gold or silver. For everyday hard wear skirts, how- ever, the more substantial mohair braid is em- ployed, and a very charming and suitable trim- ming it makes. It appears to beet advantage, | perhaps, on petticoats of heavy alpaca or j moirette of some vivid or rather light shade. 1 For instance, I saw a delightfully smart and useful skirt a few days ago which was achieved in heavy strong mohair of a bright scarlet shade, and was entirely trimmed with black military braid of a rather coarse weave. The upper part of the skirt was as well and ac- curately fitted as a dress skirt, the gores being shaped in exactly the same way. From the level of the knees sprang a shaped frill, trimmed at intervals with bands of the wide black braid, tha joining between skirt and frill being also hidden beneath a band of the braid. The skirt was completed by a narrow frill set on to the deeper flounce, the small frill being bordered by black braid of a narrower width.

SLEEVES FOR EVENING GOWN. PUFFS AND FRILLS. — The short, extremely short, puff is still first favourite as a sleeve for dancing or elaborate evening gowns. It is finished in various ways—with two or three tiny frills, an elaborate turn-back cuff, or merely a band of lace insertion. Then there are sleeves carried out entirely in lattice-work, which may be in jet, pearls, tiny artificial flowers, or ribbon, according to the style of the gown and the taste of the wearer. The little wing sleeve seems likely to return to favour for the more pic- turesque type of evening frock. It is pretty and graceful, and very boooming to some women, while it certainly displays to advantage a well- shaped arm. Sleeves entirely composed of nar- row successive frills are also in high favour this winter—they are certainly dainty and pretty, winter-they are certainly dainty and pretty, but they are far from becoming to the woman of largo proportions, aa they greatly increase her apparent size.

A CHARMING LITTLE PARTY FROCK. A CHARMING LITTLE PARTY FROCK. PREPARATIONS! — Christmas is advancing apace, and ere long.we shall be plunged into the midst of Christmas dissipations, in which, I think, the children of the family generally have the largest share. If party frocks are to be made at home—and the economy thus effected is very considerable indeed-it is high time to be thinking about questions of material and shape. Personally, for children's party frocks I prefer a fabric which will launder well. When some delicate fragile material which will 9D^ clean and not wash is employed the poor little wearer generally receives instructions to be care- ful about soiling her dainty attire. The injunc- tion weighs heavily on small mind, and I much of the delightful romping fun of the party is spoilt for her. If. however, muslin, thin broderie anglaise, or some similar material be used, all damages can be repaired by a visit to the laundry, from which the frock will emerge looking like now. A charming little dress may be made from ordinary pin-spotted white muslin and imitation Valenciennes lace. The upper part of the frock might be made in the shape of a deep yoke, formed of alternate bands of I tucked muslin and insertion, and edged with a band of insertion and a deep frill of Valenci- ennes lace. On to this yoke, beneath the frill, the muslin of the dress should be sewn in rather full gathers, the fulness being held into the figure at the long waistline by a sash of some I pretty bright-coloured silk. The bottom of the frock should be edged by a frill of the deep lace, set on with a little gathered heading. From the neck-band of lace to the waist might be placed a sort of box-pleat of muslin, edged on either side with a band of Valenciennes insertion. This breaks the line of the yoke, and gives a much newer and more original effect to the little frock. The sleeves should be of elbow length, and a small transparent puff finished with a deep frill of lace is the prettiest and most suitable shape for a child. White shoes and stockings and a hair ribbon of the same colour as the sash would completo a very pretty and dainty costume.

A NEW IDEA FOR HOUSE-GOWNS. CLOTH IN DEMAND.—A new and very pretty idea for indoor gowns has just dawned upon the modistic horizon. This consists of a cloth skirt supplemented by a sort of draped sleeveless corsage carried cut in exactly the same colour of velvet as the skirt. This bodice is cut away in front and draped over the shoulders in soft folds, much after the fashion of a crossover bodice, tho folds being secured at the left side of tho waist by a large ornamental buckle. Be- neath this bodice is worn a blouse of some light

EVENING SHOES. A GREAT VARIETY.—Quite a number of novel- ties have been introduced, this season in the way of shoes for evening wear. Perhaps the smartest, as it is certainly ,i)ae newest, is a slipper made of fine white kid, completely covered by minute straps of gold leather, which, radiate from a straight line running down the centre of the shoo from instep to toe. The gold straps are as lbl narrow as they can possibly be cut, and they are set about an eighth of an inch apart. A varia- tion of this shoe is evolved by substituting straps of coloured leather for the gold; the effect, however, is not quite so good. Speaking of gold leather reminds me that shoes entirely made of this beautiful fabric are much in demand just now. The latest examples are cut with a sort of little square yoke at the top, and are adorned with small paste buckles, through which a strap of gold leather is passed. For day wear, or as an accompaniment to a black demi-toilet or dinner-gown, there is a very pretty new shoe made of bright red morocco, covered with strap- pings of black patent leather, arranged exactly in the same way as on the gold-and-white slipper, and finished with jaunty red heels.

A SIMPLE SERVIETTE FOLD. DAIKTY TABLES.—Occasionally one has to en- tertain totally unexpected guests at a moment's notice. In such a case one naturally wishes the table to look as nice as possible, with the mini- mum expenditure of time and trouble. Folded serviettes add greatly to the general effect of table decoration, and, as there are two or three folds which take no appreciable time to do, the extra. few minutes the folding requires are I amply repaid by tlio infinitely nicer appearance ¡ of the table. Perhaps the prettiest, as it is cer- tainly the easiest, of these simple folds is the lily-leaf or boat in full sail." To make this 'I fold the serviette is first laid flat upon the table. It is then folded in half with the edges upper- most. It is once morss folded in half from left to right, so that the result is a square. The square is now folded cornerwise, resulting in a small triangular .shape. The corners of the tri- angle are then folded to the middle. To com- plete the fold, the lower edges are turned up. The serviette is now turned over, pleated down the middle to make it stand, and the corners pulled out and up till they stand in crisp lily-leaf fashion.

ANSWERS TO CORRESPONDENTS. "FRIVOLOUS. "-C-ortainly spangled materials will be worn this winter for evening gowns. The newest, however, are not spangled with sequins, but are sewn all over with tiny crystal beads, which produce a charming dew-drop effect on thin, filmy materials. LA BELLE FRANCE. "-Iknzoline is by far the best thing for removing grease stains from deli- cate colours. The greasy mark should be satu- rated with the fluid and then rubbed dry with a piece of clean white rag, the process being re- peated until all trace of the stain has dis- appeared.

C0LWYN BAY URBAN COUNCIL LIGHTING OF ABERGELE ROAD. The November meeting' of the Council vvv.s held in the Council Chambers, Conway-road, on Tuesday, Mr Joseph Dlicken, deputy-chair- mtin, presiding. STREET TREES. The Surveyor suggested the. desirability of planting trees in Eirskine-road, Highfield-road, Victoria-avenue, Ha warden-road, Conway- I'Oad, Vidtoina l\i(r5kj, Ration-road. Total number 96, cost of which is estimated at £J6 8s. It' was .agreed to provide and plant the trees reiommended exccpt in Victoria. Park, the owners of houses there to be asked to pro- vide the trees necessary to complete the Toad. DANGEROUS CURVE, BEACH 'ROAD. A letter had bsen received from Mr W. G. tV^llliaims, chemist, Old Colwyn, support by others, pointing out the nece^city for a notice being fixed on Beach-road, u;here it joined the main road. The surveyor in con- sultation with the chairman had been instruc- ted by the committee to forthwith cansa a warning notice to be fixed at the top of tiie road. Mr Bernard Lowe asked what kind of notice was to he put up. Would it be a grey notice in a grey wall like other notices that had. been put up? Mr E'. H. Davies said the present noticxs were difficult to find, and he hoped a- more prominent notice would be placed on beach- raad. VICTORIA-AVENUE SUBWAY. It was reported that the Railway Company hlad accepted the Oouncils's offer to bear the actual increased cost of constructing a bridge of 40 feet span over the. Victoria-avenue ap- proach to the Promenade in connection with the new station works. The company s en- gineer had prepared an estimate of the cost of widening the existing bridge, which amounted to about £ 4000, or if the work was not taken in band in connection with the existing con- tract for the new station the cost would be Increased to abiout .S4353. The sub-com- mittee had replied, stating the Council under the circumstances were not prepared to incur such outlay in widening the existing bridge to 40 feet. The sub-eommittee's action was ap- proved. RK;FUSE y^sTRUCTOR. The sub-committee appointed to report on the question of the provision of a. refuse de- structor intimated that the question be post- poned for 12 months, and the General Pur- poses Committee approved the decision. Mr Wm. Davies moved that the matter be not postponed, and that a fresh committee be appointed. A lively debate followed, Mr Davies remark- ing thiat ih.e did not know if there was any political reason for the opposition to a reiuse deetructor. Had it anything to do with the Primrose league's boast that it was going to sweep the town? And were they cfraid if matters were inquired into it would t.l«ow up the muddle into which the town's affairs had -be.enQ"ot ? ) Mr Edward Allen seconded the motion that a .fresh committee be appointed, as it seemed clear that it was very unusual for the com- mittees to go into matters with their minds already made lIP, hence the subjects under discussion did not receive proper considera- tion. After a. g()Q(); deal1 of chaff and banter be- tween various members of the Council, Mr Heenan, whose firm is interested in the erec- tion of refuse destructors, said, thou.h be believed a destructor was desirable and ne- cessary, considering the niancial prsiiion of the Council, he thought it would be well to accept the recommendation of the committee. He had often complained of the flies at Old Colwyn, but he did not think there was "any flies on" any member of that Council, and the recommendation of the committer had been made in the interests of the ratepayers. That clinched the matter, and the recom- mendation of the committee was adopted. WATER SUPPLY. In regard to a letter from the Local Go- vernment Board with reference to the question of the water supply and inquiring the present position of the matter, and in particular as to whettber the Council bad taken requisite steps to obtain a settlement of the differences upon the lines indicated in the Board's letter of 18th April last. It was resolved that a special meeting of the Council be held (in com- mittee* on the question of the water supply generally, the date of the meeting to be fixed br the chairman of the Council. TRAIN SERVICE. A letter was read from Mr L. W. ;Tcrne, district superintendent, Chester, stating that the company bad had under consideration the question of stopping the 11.14 p.m. train from Chester at Cblwyn Bay, both in cmnection wIth the summer service and for the winter, and expressing regret that the company were unable to grant the request. SPEED OF MOTOR CARS. The General Purposes Committee J'f ported leceipt of a letter from the secretary of the Town (Advertising Association, reevpecbfullly suggesting that a bye-law should be made 1o enforce a. speed limit on motor cars pnssing through- the district, and adding tha:, sudh a bye-law would be appreciated by both visitors and residents alike. The clerk was directed by the committee, to reply explaining the. steps previously adopted, and. expressing the opinion that an application for the Order s posted wouid be unsuccessful. The Rev W. Hugfhes moved, that the letter from the association should be sent to the County Council asking the county authority to seek an order from the Local Gov>-mment Board fixing a speed limit of 10 mikv in hour in Abergele-road, Station-road, Conw;iy-road, and the Promenade. Mr John Jones seconded. The Chairman pointed out that. so far as the Promenade- was concerned, motors v ould not be allowed there another season. After some discussion, the amendment was put to the vote, and declared lost, .and the recommendation of the committee was adop- ted. ABERGELE-ROAD LIGHTING. The Lighting Committee reported that the lighting of Abergele-road bad; .been again con- sidered, and they recommended thaT. a high power lamp be fixed on tbe corner of Green- field-road. The Rev W. Hughes moved that th"- road be .lighted by electricity. He went into the matter at considerable length, and showed that the advocates of sgas had previously been proved to be "riding the. wrong horse." when the question of lighting the Promenade was di&cusised, and he believed, they were doing so Mr John Jones seconded the amendment. Mr Wm. Davies pointed out that wii hone or two exceptions ajl the members "f the alighting Committee bad electric ligltt outside their own ppemises. After some further discussion )h", nend- ment was put to the vote and carried hy nine to five, so that AbergeJe-road will now be lighted by electricity. STREET LIGHTING AND PUBLIC LAMPS. It was resolved, on the recommendai ion of the Lighting Committee, to fix four high, power lamps on the main road at Old Colwyn, an m- candescent lamp by the footbridge n -ar the viaduct in Beach-road, and a similar lamp be- tween that point and Tanycoed, five oii lamps •along BTompton-aivteuiue-, LiLannerch-road to Quarry Cottage (no gas main laid), two gas lamps, Quarry Cottage to Ship Hotoi one gas lamp at each end of the public footway crossing from Tanybryn-road. to Brynrieiaid j one gas lamp at the end of the new mam near Ty'nyrhewl; one was lamp between 3rd and 4th lamp up Pwllycrochan-avenue; one gas limp in Marine-road, near the railway b-idge, and gas lamps at each end of Albert -p!a<-u and Rhiw Bank-avenue. WARD v. THE COUNCIL. A letter had been received from Mesers Porter, Amphk'tt, and Co., with one. irom Messrs Nunn and Co., stating 'that, as no doubt it wtas the desire of the Council toO see the t-nd 1 of this matter, suggesting the respective clients should jointly take up the award or take pro- ceedings to tax the fees. The clerk was direc- ted to reply tlhat the Council regret they can- not entertain the proposal. (Cheap Printing at the "Herald" Carnarvon.)

GOtWYN BAY liGHT RAILWAY j COUNCIL TO OTPOSE THE SCHEME. I At the monthly meeting of the Colwyn Bay j Urban Council on Tuesday, it was reported that the Council had met in committee to discuss I matter relating to proposed deviation of route. Mr Huxtablo (solicitor) stated that in view of ii.u application, to the Light Railway Commis- sioners the promoters, wished to confer with i he local autlkority as to deviation of route be- tween RhbB and Colwyn Bay station, and the tween Rhlas and Colwyn Bay station, and the proposal was to carry the line by way of Ever- ¡ ard-road. It was pointed out that the promen- ade would be a satisfactory route for tbe railway, but the Chairman ruled the proposal out of the question. A plan of the Cayley Estate was examined, and it was stated that out of the question. A plan of the Cayley Estate was examined, and it was stated that the agreement between the Cayley Estate and the company in reepect of the. widening of t'ihos-road was not. enforcable, and that the road was not a road to be traversed by the rail- way. It was agreed to receive, the proposals of the company in writing. Subsequently, at a meeting of the General Purposes Committee on November 1st, a letter was read from the Secretary to the Llandudno, etc., Tramway Co., Ltd., informing the Coun- cil that the company had decided to promote before the Lightt Railway Commissioners a route from the Cayley Hotel, following the Everard-ro-ad to the existing bridge across the railway, and thence along the main road to and aJong" Penrhyn. (?) road. The letter also made reference to the route along the promenade. The Council decided to take steps to oppose the scheme, and to notify the company to thai I effect.

LLANRWST URBAN COUNCIL NORTH WALES POSTAL MAILS. RECTOR REFUSES TO PAY THE RATES. COUNCIL TAKES NO ACTION. I FRIDAY.—Mr William Hughes, J.P., pre- siding. THE WAY NOT CLEAR.—The Clerk was instructed to write to Mr Wyard, postmaster of Llandudno, to the effect that there were insurmountable difficulties in the way of alter- ing the entrance to the pulbbc urinal in Station- road, which was stated to be a nuisance anct an annoyance to the local postmistress. THE RECTOR AND HIS RATES.—Mr E. .M. Jon.es reported that the Kector (the Rev John Morgan) declined to pay a proportion of the rates due upon the national schoolmaster's ihouse. The sum in question amounted to Is 3d. It was the amount of the rates for three weeks in the summer,.prior:to a new arrange- ment with the trustees.—The Chairman What shall we do about this Is 3d ?—!Dr Owen: I propose tha-t we leave it alone.-Mr Rhydwen Jones seconded the motion, which wa.s carried unanimously. THE RAILWAY BRIDGE.—In reply to the request that the railway bridge be coveredl Mr L. W. Horne, district manager of the Lon- don and North-Western Riailway Company, wrotoe. stPting that he would make an appoint- ment with the Clerk respecting the matter at his earliest convenience. FISH AND CHTPS. — A memorial from a number of inhabitants of Denbigh-street was read protesting against the chip potato and fried fislh trade carried on in the street.—Mr' Wynne, the surveyor, reported that Dr Frasex, the medical officer, made all inspection of the premises between 9 and 10 a.m. That was not the time when cooking w5ht on. Dr Eraser could find no fault with the sanitary condi- tion of the place.—On the motion of Mr W. G. Jones, the petition was laid on the table. THE CONTINUATION CLASSES.—It was decided to present a precept for £ 36 on the Board of Guardians, the sum ear-marked for the support of the continuation classes in town. —Mr W. J. Williams, J.P., said that the classes were a j^reat success, and that they were attended bv over 200 scholars. LATER POSTAL MAILS REQUIRED .-—A letter was read from Mr Evan R. Davies, town clerk of Pwllheli, calling attention to the fact tha.t the postal authorities recently ex- I tended to Llandudno exceptional postaj facili- ties supplemental to the ordinary general eve- ning mail, and letters could now be posted at Llandudno for the great English centres up to midmighlt. Similar facilities had .been en- joyed at Bangor for many years, and though it was probably impossible that these facilities could be made applicable to other town in North Wales, the concession of such improved facilities to the two towns named, surely justified an effort being made to secure an irgm-ovement for people dependent upon the ordinary facilities. The evening mail which left Bangoir at 9 p.m. did not reach Chester until 10.52, and Mr Davies suggested that the train might be so accelerated that the evening mail might leave Pwllheli at 8 p.m., Carnarvon 9.15 p.m., Bangor 9.45 p.m.. and correspond- ingly later all the way. This would mean that the ordinary facilities would be extended by at least half an hour. The Town Clerk stated that he was directed to ask that the several 'Councils should vigorously support, the Pwll- heli Council in their petition to the Postmas- ter-General-On tille motion of Mr Edward Mills, seconded hy Mr William Davies, the Council unanimously decided to support the petition, and the Clerk was instructed accord- ingly. GOVERNOR.—The Chairman was, on fhA proposition of Mr W. J. Williams, appointed a governor of the North Wales Coller THE UNEMPLOYED. — The' Chairman sftated that several working men who were un- employed! had waited upon him and asked whe- ther the Oourcfil Jiad atnty work which they oould put in hand forthwithjso as to .give thO) applicant something to do. "The men were not loafers, Mr Hughes explained, but genuine workers when they could .set work to do.- A discussion ijcon t:b" Chairman's communica- tion revealed the fact that, though there a-re one or two small schemes of improvement be- fore the Council, they would not. give scojpe for much employment, and the Council had, moreover, not yet had the permission of the Local Government Board to borrow the neces- isairy funds.—-Mr W. J. Williams proposed- thiat the Council express their sympathy with rbhose who were out of employment, and their regret tha.t they had nothing which they could give the men to do at present.—i\fr Mills se- conded, and the motion was agreed to.
