Chilslren's Millinery.

Children's millinery Is even more pictur-
esuue than that of their elders The fat en-
pire hat is often supplemented by a ruche of
ostrich feathers edging the inside of the brim,
and caps OF fur with pointed hood of red
cloth peeping from the center, though in
quite different style, are none the less be-
coming. Little faces always accord well with
large hats, and they are often worn by the
young folk. But felts with fur trimmings
are fashionable, and with these bulrushes
formed with beaver or otter are introduced
in the front; these are new. Felts suit chill
dren, for they are light, and stand good
deal of hacking about Many are made in
the largo ihape. with the brims left raw.
