TRELLIS IN NEW CUISE.

Trollis work in dress generally is available rlow for anyone who cares to adopt it in any form seen hitherto or that can be nowly, invented; Bodice lacing, a form of ornamentation closely allied, is also being revivod, while the lacing of odd openings on shoulders, sleoves, and skirts is having a good innings. If these things go on developing they will mean a demand in narrow .ribbon velvets of no small magnitude, and especially perhaps as a new spirit is appearing in the use of this criss-cross notion. It has been almost invariably thought necessary hitherto to uso as medium for trellis work a dark ribbon, black more often than not. But now thero is somo disposition to change this to the employment of delicate shades, and it is a very great chango indeed. Tho trellis work becomes a mere design, instead of being tho medium of more or loss startling contrast, and it is surprising what a different thing it makes of it.

Another reason yet is given for woman's suffrago by a writor in tho "Morning Post" : —It is tho women always who pay tho insurance 'money and keep a watch dog. Nover. would tho womon of England endure tho sickening uncertainty as to our defences against" foreign invasion with which, apparently, the mon noiv at the helm are fully content.
