"The dancing, in the conventional bullet style, of Miss Sybil Roe, was quite good."—Wiltshire Times.

We confess that the bullet style is too fast for us.


"In all the best dress ateliers classic evening gowns are now being exhibited, and in many of these the lines of the corsage closely resemble the draperies to be seen on the Venus de Milo."—Daily Mail.

THE NEW JOURNAL-INSURANCE.

[Several newspapers have been roused to a sense of their duties to their readers by the insurance competition between The Chronicle and The Mail. We make a few preliminary announcements of other insurance schemes which are not yet contemplated.]

VOTES FOR WOMEN.—A copy of the current issue nailed to your front door insures you absolutely against arson.

THE STAR.—All regular subscribers to The Star are insured with the proprietors of The Daily News for £1,000 in the event of being welshed on any race-course.
