HOW TURKISH WOMEN HELFED THE REVOLUTION.

SECRET COURIERS.

Since leaving Uskub for Monastir, writes the special correspondent of a Leadoa contem- porary, I bave discovered that the marvellous transformation of Turkey into a constitutional State has been greatly helped by the Turkish women. They bave been employed by that all powerful organisation, the Young Tark party, in work which would often bare been very difoult, if not impossible, to accomplish with safety by the

THE FUTURE OF GREY, There has been an absolute rage for pale gres displayed during the whole of the now past season, and there is no doubt that this liking for a very lovely colour will be continded for at least some time. At His Majesty's Courts in sums of the most admired of the gowns were palest grey, and it is said that a very distin-

shed peremage remarked that no other colour appeared to show off beautiful jewels so well as this. Such a remark from such a source. will no doubt eeatribute to the popularity of a refined and effective colour, which is none the worse for its negative quality. It used to be said of black that no one could look fast in that negation of all colour, Old-fashioned people might imagine that the same would be true of grey. Awasingly abundant could be the instances given of the exact opposite of this. How extraordinary it appears that the amart women of the fashionable world appear to model their costumes upon the smartly-dressed of the balf-world, while the latter do their best to resemble their more raspoatable-sisters. There has book a tug-of-war in this respect for pala grey during this season. A WLUE SEASON,
