Venice, Italy.-Sofa pillows are the latest articles to be touched by the magic wand of modern art.
Old-fashioned patchwork made contemporary, under the hame of applique embroidery." Both in Italy and France "applique embroidery" is used in many varied ways by the leading decora Lots.
Curtains, wall panels, bed and sofa covers and now pillows, are mude entirely of “applique embroi- dery,"
The design is done with as much enre as if it were a painting. Well-known artists design the pie- ture and designate the colours to be used in a given "portrait" or "scene." Applique embroidery carries out the design faithfully and the result is a colourful bit of art, comparable to an oil paint- Ing in the lights and shadows of its rich colouring.”
Achieving Contrast!
Varied kinds of silks are stepf to produce contrasts and enhance Fertain elfects. Different embroi- dery stitches join the bits of silk. It is charming pick-up work for a woman with leisure and the pro- duction of one of these pillows can give her the same joy of artistic expression as ean a composition on
canvas.
The Italian artist. Aurelio Chiernini, has designed several applique embroidery pillows that have received such acclaim as to be exhibited at the International Exhibition here.

POLICE "COURT CONFUSION,
SORTING OUT BATCH OF WOMEN TRESPASSERS.

The lot of Police Court atten- dants is by no means an easy one, and those who fulfil these duties in Mr. E. W. Hamilton's court, at the Central Magistracy, were given a rather harassing time this morning by seven women, who displayed re- luctancy to answer to their names when charged with trespassing on a Government plantation at Hatton Road, and an even greater hesit- ancy in revealing their ages.
After the women had been called, the interpreter tried patiently to arrange them in proper order, but such a long time was taken in do-
