FEMININE FASHIONS. FAVOURITE COLOURS FOR THE AUTUMN. Brawn continues to hold its own, although Lincoln and bottle-greons are favoured rivals. Orange yellow is very frequently employed to give reiief to these colours respectively. To trim walking costumes orange yellow leather is much favoured. Fine face-cloths for indoor wear are trimmed with yellow silk. Vest and revers of it are very popular. A majority of the new cloths are light, as regards weight, and very soft and supple, GO that dresses made in the prevailing mode—that is. long and full—will not be found too heavy for comfort, even if made of cloth. Most skirts are trimmed with flounces. Some flounces are hea-ded by ruches, otherwise they are gauged, and then set on the foundation skirt. Pleats and plisse folds are also pressed into service by dressmakers, Leather trimming, so much used just now for vests, revers, pipings, and strapping, suggests a certain hardness of effect, but the leather employed in this direction is exceed- ingly pliable, and when lined with silk we seem to lose sight of the fact that it is leather, or, if we do remember it. we shall probably consent to the verdict of Fashion as expressed in the old adage, "Nothing like leather." Very many gowns are made of plain mat-erials in very quiet colours, but the sub- dued tone is contradicted by the trimming usually employed, which is always vivid in tone, and. as a rule, costly. Fashionable women appear to disregard cold, and are wearing with thick skirts very thin blouses of silk and eoft cream satin. Very light or otherwise very dark blouses will be worn- white, cream, and very pale colours generally, otherwise dark blue, fuchsia red, puce, and wine red. Voiles-winter though it will be soon-are made into blouses for indoor wear; also printed flannels, thin in quality, but more seasonable than the materials previously named. BODICES will not hang loose over the waist-line, but bo neatly pointed over the skirt; otherwise, if full, very high and pointed corselet belts will be worn, producing a similar effect. It is expected that points to dress bodices will grow gradually longer and longer in the direction of those extravagantly long, acutely pointed corsages or stomachers worn by i Queen Elizabeth, and not quite unknown in the earlier years of the last century. THE TUNIC SKIRT. As flounces to the waist do not suit short figures, the tunic skirt comes opportunely to the rescue of those who are neither tall nor slim. There are many significant indications pointing to the speedy return of tunic skirts. The long basqued coat has paved the way for the tunic, and the fashion instanced was in its day so extremely popular that its welcome is assured already. THE DOLMAN MANTLE Has been resuscitated, but it is doubtful if it will be regarded with favour by any but elderly women. The shape, as we knew it in the past, was considered dowdy, and calcu- lated to give what has been described as an "elderly spread" to the figure. This made the dolman anathema maranatha to young women. All the same, the mantle could be made to suit youthful figures, and if, as expected, gigot sleeves are to be worn again it would be impossible to induce them to enter coat sleeves made as they now are. I have heard that the convenient sleeveless sac coat is likely to return, in order that the big gigot sleeve shall expand itself at will, but the leg- of-mutton sha-p-a has only been spoken of as yet, though we see all new sleeves—tailor- mades excepted—getting fuller and fuller near the shoulder and fitting the lower arm to the elbow as close as possible. A very attractive shape it is when not exaggerated. TIGHT-FITTING BODICES Pave a way for the general adoption of fichus. A drapery of this kind is always an elegant addition to a bodice, if it be well arranged. It is certain that no little skill must be exercised to drape a fichu in a manner at once becoming and strictly designed to suit the figure of the wearer. The folds applicable to a very full figure assuredly will not beautify a meagre shape, and so on. When in the far past shawls were worn it was said no Englishwoman ever succeeded in putting a shawl on properly. To adjust a fichu as it should be requires taste and skill, and a few preliminary rehearsals in pinning net, lace, muslin, and silk precisely in the most becoming manner and position will not be time thrown away. MILLINERY We hear rather lees than usual about mil- linery suited to the present season. Feather hats are seen in considerable numbers in the shops. The shapes are entirely covered with short feathers laid close, as on the bird itself, and the trimming exactly corresponds. I am not able to identify the species of fowl to which this plumage belongs. The Impeyan pheasant and the seagull usually supply material for hats of this class, but neither bird has been laid under contribution at pre&ent. The jam-pot crown is talked of more than worn. It is not a favourite evidently. SAC COATS. The sac coat dies hard, and it is by no means certain that it will be out-rivalled by the newer shapes exploited. The tight-fitting coat, three-quarter length, is making a bold stand, but we a.re so little accustomed to this make of coats that we regard it doubtfully as yet, and few find the courage to adopt it. The Russian coat with or without a basque appears in fur, and the Norfolk jacket, neat and workmanlike, is sure to command a fol- lowing for wear with walking suits. I have seen two or three velvet coats, tight-fitting, with medium length basques, and for dressy wear I think them admirable. MACKINTOSH. The usefulness of this material cannot be questioned, but the odonr hitherto inseparable from mackintosh has always been objection- able. I have lately discovered the existence of a new make of waterproof material. It is light, odourless, soft, very pliable, abso- lutely waterproof, antiseptic, and eanitary. Moreover, it washes easily, and, therefore, can be preserved in a clean and dainty con- dition for a long time. In the nursery this non-rubber sheeting is altogether valuable; it is the best protection possible for bedding, and a perfect safeguard for children's and mother's clothes. The material makes a pro- tecting cover for perambulators, and in the sick-room non-rubber cloth cannot be dis- pensed with. Both doctors and nurses speak in very high praise of it; indeed, it is a household necessity, and gives unbounded satisfaction. The pants for infants' wear are exceptionally well made, and are sold in pairs at a price so moderate that no one need be hampered by questions of economy. Bibs, bathing caps, drees shields, toilet bags, surgical bandages, nurses' aprons. Ac., made of this odourless fabric are desirable substi- tutes for the evil-smelling waterproof material ordinarily used in like capacity Non-rubber cloth is coloured white and grey respectively.

CURIOUS ELOPEMENT SEQUEL. At Gamlingay, Cambridgeshire, James Paine was married to Miss Louisa Shortt. This is the sequel to an episode which enlivened Toddington Fair, Bedford- shire, some weeks ago. The bridegroom was a roundabout man, and the girl was in charge of her father's shooting gallery. During the I fair the two eloped, and, being pursued by the girl's father, the young man left the girl and bolted across the fields. He was caught, thrashed, and his sweetheart taken ¡ back to the parental caravan. Then the other show people took sides and adjourned I to a field to fight it out, the affair proving a much greater attraction to spectators than the showground. The bride was loudly cheered.

THE BOY AND THE BISHOP. A curious experience recently befell Dr. Reunion, the Bishop of Bath and Wells, while he was conducting a confirmation service. During the delivery of the episcopal address to the candidates a loud clattering of hob-nailed boots was heard in the aisled and a, small boy walked straight up to the bishop and asked in a shrill voice, Please, zur, how long before it will be over?" When' the congregation recovered from their astonishment the urchin was promptly removed; but it transpired that he had been sent in by some cabmen waiting outside to ascertain how long the service would last, and thought it best to obtain the infor- mation direct from headquarters.

TRAGIC END TO A COURTSHIP. A tragic end to a. oourteMp has been reported to the Liverpool coroner. On Satur- day night Esther Wilson, aged twenty-three, was proceeding to the station to meet her fiance when she slipped and fell in the street. She was considerately shaken, but managed to reach the station, where she met her fnv^et'heart. Wihile they were walking to the ferry for the Birkenhead boat, where the young woman resided, &he fell down in a fit. and died later in hospital.

FOR FEMALE FOLK. USEFUL HINTS FOR THE HOME. DELICIOUS SODA CAKE. Three ounces of butter, to be rubbed into Mb. of best dried flour, iJb. loaf sugar or fine granulated sugar, half a teaspoonful car- bonate of soda, llh. currants, washed and dried, one egg, ouarter pint new milk or four cream. Mix all these ingredients thoroughly. Put the mixture in a well- greased tin, and then let it stand some time before it is set in the oven. Bake the cake an hour and a half in a slow oven. Do not turn it out of the tin until it is quite cold. Another important matter is this—the cake when made and set aside before baking is not to be placed near the fire to rise. DAMP WALLS. There are few houses quite free from dis- coloured patches on walls, and caused by damp. I have found the following treatment efficacious in remedy!?!*? this dd,cct: -Cover the stained portion with a varnish formed of naphtha, and shellac, in the proportion of lib. of the latter to a quart of the former. This coating1 has a, rather unpleasant smell, but it wears off eoon, and the wall is then imper- vious to damp, and wall-paper can be attached in the usual manner. I think this varnish better than lead paper, but everyone who uses naphtha, aught to be a v.-are tha.t it is highly explosive, and should be employed with the greatest caution. BENGAL CHUTNEY. The native servant (Jof an Indian chief whom I met during the summer gave me the fol- lowing recipe for making Bengal chutney, a delicious accompaniment to breakfast bacon and to cold meats of any kind:-Take nine large sharp apples (chopped), one moderate- sized Spanish onion (chopped), half an ounce brown sugar, two ounces of salt, two ounces of stoned raisins chopped, two ounces ground ginger, two ounces mustard seed, half an ounce cayenne pepper, and three gills of vinegar. Dissolve salt and sugar in the vinegar. Boil with the rest of the ingredients till tender. Wllen cool, put into jars, and seal down. DAMSONS TO PRESERVE. This fruit—sometimes very scarce-this year is exceptionally plentiful, and there are many ways of preserving it for future use. "Damson Solid" is very nice to use as a dessert after dinner, or it may be eaten at high tea, also at breakfast as a, change from I jam and marmalade, more usuahy served at that meal. Take any quantity of good, sound apples, peel, core, a.nd cut them into quarters, put them in a jar, tie it over, and place in a pan of boiling water. Keep up the boiling until the apples fall. A large jar full of apples may take several hours. When pulped, mix in a pint of damson juice, and to each four pounds of apples put a pound of sugar. Boil the preserve for about twenty- five minutes, stirring all the time. Turn the solid into moulds, and tie over. Store in a cool, dry place. DAMSON CHEESE. Old-fashioned housekeepers had usually a stora of this very delicious fruit cheese. It was preserved in small white moulds, and when turned out formed a ready dish for dessert. To make it. stalk the damsons, and gash them with a knife. Set them in clean storic jars. Tie over with three folds of thick paper, and set the jar in the oven for the night. A bread-oven after the bread has been drawn would be the right heat; other- wise tie bladder over, and place the jars in a pan of water, reaching to two-thirds of their height, and boil gently from two to three hours, or until the fruit is soft and juice plentiful. Pour off juice, and press the fruit through a sieve to remove stones. Put back to the pulp from a third to half the juice. Weigh and boil over the fire briskly until thick; add six ounces of pounded sugar for each pound of plums. Stir over the fire until the sugar is dissolved, and boil the cheese again without leaving it a moment or ceasing to stir. WTien the, cheese leaves the pan dry and adheres to the spoon it will be done, and keep a very long time. Press it quickly into moulds. Put a paper dipped in spirit over, and store. A DELICIOUS SALAD Is made of boiled beetroot and Spanish onion uncooked. Slice both tubers, and mix them with a dressing of salt and vinegar. Equal portions of beet and onion may be used, but this quantity of onion can be reduced if considered too much. Celery a.nd beetroot dressed in similar manner make a most appetising salad. If not to be bought ready boiled, the beet will take about an hour and a half or two hours to cook. When cold it will peel easily. Be sure do not puncture the skin when cooking, or the rich red juice will escape and spoil the appear ance of the salad. SCOTCH WOODCOCK—A NICE SAVOURY. Make some toast,and butter it thoroughly on both sides. Wash well and then scrape and bone nine anchovies. Place them between the slices of toast. Have ready the yolks of four eggs beaten and half a pint of cream; set these over the fire to thicken, but on no account boil the mixture. Pour it over the toast, and send to table as hot as possible. TO POLISH BUFFALO HORNS. If the horns have flaws in them, get an Sin. wood file (half-round) and file them out. Then scrape with a piece of broken glass and well sandpaper (use No. 2 F). Then get a pennnyworth of flour pumice and use a piece of wet cloth dipped into it, and rub them till smooth. Next take a piece of rotten stone and dip a piece of cloth in linseed out, scrape the lotten stone on the cloth, and rub till you get a brilliant polish. MUTTON REOHA UFFE. From a cold roast of boiled leg of mutton cut slices about an eighth of an inch thick. Have ready an egg beaten light, and stir into it a teaspoonful of Worcester sauce. Dip each slice in this. then roll in breadcrumbs and fry quickly. Serve very hot, and garnish with fried potatoes; or make a mound of mashed potato in the middle of the dish, and arrange the slices of mutton about it. TO REMOVE A GLASS STOPPER. To loosen stoppers of glass bottles, etc., rub a little sweet or salad oil with a feather round the stopper, close to the mouth of the bottle. Then place it a short distance from the firo, that the heat may cause the oil to run between the stopper and the bottle. When warm, strike the stopper gently with any light wooden instrument, first on one side, then on the other, Repeat the process, if necessary. HOT WATER. For inflamed and painful eyes nothing is so good as hot water, applied with a woollen cloth. Equal benefit is derived from such an application in many forms of headache. The best thing to do with a sprained ankle is to immerse the foot in water as hot as can be borne. A crushed foot or hand may be simi- larly treated until the arrival of a surgeon, the hot- water being frequently renewed. Warm baths are good for infants suffering from intestinal colic. They should be at a temperature of 90deg. Fahrenheit. While the child is immersed in this, its head should be kept cool with cloths wrung out of cold water. The warm bath is a most efficient sedative, particularly when there is cerebral irrita- tion; and is at least as efficient as any of our ordinary anodyne remedies in the control of abdominal pain in young children, after the bowels have been thoroughly opened, so as to remove offending causes, such as partly digested food.

CURIOUS INCIDENT AT A FIRE. A fire broke out on Saturday in one of the South-Eastern Railway arches at Silwood- street, Dcptford, occupied by a sawdust con. tractor, and a number of passenger trains filled with City men had to ruell between two hedges of fire. The carriages were filled with smoke, but no harm was done. The fire broke out at seven, and was got under by nine o'clock, although there was still at that time a considerable quantity of' smouldering fire, necessitating the attention of the brigade. While the firemen were at work a fox terrier bitch was observed running in and out among the smoke evidently trying to attract the firemen's attention. When the attract the firemen's attention. When the firemen got closer to the fire they dug out I from the very centre of thq arch three little pups still alive. How they escaped being suffocated, burned, or drowned is a mystery.

MEDICAL. Indigestion.—"Big Tom."—Ask a chemist to make you up a mixture containing rhubarb, soda, and ginger, with chloroform water, and take a dose two or three times a day. Noises in the Head.—W. O. Last.—The first remedy to be tried is to have the ears syringed by a doctor, in cas-a there should be some hardened wax in the ears. This may cure you. Back-ache. — "Stoker, W.D." — Wear a strengthening plaster a-cross the loins; take half an ounce of infusion of gentian twice a day half an hour before meals, and never drink more than a half-pint of beer twice a day, and smoke only one ounce a week. Baldness.—"X." (Kettering).-The remedy you refer to is as follows :-out up half a small onion very finely, put it into a bottle, pour in a gill of gin; let it stand for twelve hours; then with a sponge rub this liquid into the scalp night and morning. Uric Acid in the System.—"Regular Reader." -You may try the effect of taking three times a day, in water, twenty grains of bicarbonate of potash, with two grains of iodide of potas- sium, and drink a little gin and soda-water at bed-time. Ammonia Fumes.—"W. G."—We think the fumes are the cause of all the trouble, and that you must change your employment. The bronchial tubes and lungs are irritated, as shown by the phlegm. You would be much healthier as an agricultural worker in the open air. Marriage of Cousins.—"Ignorant."—There is no special book on the sobjeet, but in a public library you could consult works on medicine and insanity, and you would find evidence that the marriage of cousins produce mere madness, deformity, and disease than mar- riage between strangers. Too Fat.—"Brittain."—It is not very safe to take medicines to destroy fat in the system; they are so apt to produce other illnesses. Perhaps the least harmful is the Extract of Fucus Vesiculosus, which you can procure from chemists, by ordering, in the form of pills. Neuralgia.—"Hettie."—A violent neuralgia in the face which has not been relieved by extraction of the teeth will probably require violent remedies, but it is not safe to give them without medical advice. The following are usually tried in turn:—Tincture of Gelse- mium, Butyi-chloral-hydrate, andaconit.e ointment. Nasal Oatarrh.—"Powell."—As you hare the nasal douche, use the liquid called Glyco- thymoline, one part to four of wa-ter, as a douche for the nose; let it run in one nostril and out the other, or into the throat and spit it out. You had better see a skin disease physician about the hair and scalp. Feet, Smell of.—"One in Three."—He should try to get cured by bathing the feet every night in warm water, using carbolic soap (10 per cent, strength); dry them thoroughly, and dust them over with a dry powder con- sisting of equal parts of boric acid, starch, and oxide of zinc. Of course, it is unwhole- some.

LEGAL. Registry Office Fees.—"Employer."—If it was an agreed fee it could probably be recovered in the county-court. The demand of the accountants is, apparently, not an improper one. Will.—"D. R.We cannot answer queries in any particular issue. A can, under the will in question, charge the property to the extent of zCl,000 as security for a bona-fide loan, but he cannot in anv way give his wife an inte- rest in it otherwise than as security for a loan. Son's Legacy.—"Tom."—Without seeing the will we cannot definitely advise on your ques- tion. There would, however, appear to be ample power in the trustees to devote the interest to your son's maintenance, and the appointment of a guardian would be unneces- sary. Farming Agreement.—"G. D.The agree- ment can now be stamped on payment of a penalty, which will he fixed by the Inland Revenue authorities. The amount will depend upon the reasonableness of the excuse for non-stamping. The agreement still remains ( good. Will.—"A. B. C.You do not say whether the second wife is dead. Even if she is the will bequeathing the whole of her husband's property to her absolutely can still be proved. So much of the property as consisted of real estate will pass to the heir-at-law, and the remainder will become divisible amongst her next-of-kin. As she was the sister of the deceased's first wife, the second marriage was invalid, and her children are not entitled to share. If she ie still alive she can, of course, make a will leaving the property to her chil- dren. Landlord and Tenant.—" J J. W."—The statute under which a landlord can claim double value from a tenant who wilfully holds over after notice to quit given by the landlord lias expired has no application to a tenancy for less than a year. and even in cases to which it applies no distress can be levied. The landlord's only remedy in these c.a.ses is by action for double the value of the premises (not. be it noted, double the amount of rent), and the right to this double value arises only when the landlord has made a demand and given notice in writing for the delivering up of possession. If the landlord gives a tenant notice to quit or pay double rent, and the tenant acquiesces, a fresh tenancy may be created at the increased i rental; and in that case the landlord may; distrain for the rent when it decomes due. It I is doubtful how far the mere holding posses- sion after expiry of the notice is acquiescence suoh as to create a fressh tenancy; and wo should hesitate to advise a landlord to dis- train for the increased rent under such cir- cumstances, especially when the furniture is on the hire system. We think that if the tenant informs the landlord that he refuses to pay the increased rent no new tenancy can be created, and in that case all the landlord can do is to commence proceedings for eject- ment. This answer does Hot apply to a tenant who holds over after a notice to quit given by IrimseM' when expired. In that case the landlord is entitled to double rent, and can enforce payment of it by distress or action. As the rent appears to be L12 a year, you can obtain an order for possession from the magi- strates. In order to do so, yon must serve the tenajrt with written notice in the form set forth in the Small Tenements Recovery Act, 1838, of your intention to apply to the justices for an order.
