overlaid with fine black tulle, bound about
with gold cord, and fastened by jet ornament.

dark serpent velvet, fastened down with large
steel buckle, stiff aigrettes ON left side of

The children's hats are broad as usual but
the finer ones are no longer caught up either
in back or front, the brim is left straight,
and more elaborate trimmings prevail. Some
of the hats are almost covered with flowers
and ribbon and most of the newest ones have
long streamers attached for tying under
the chin in large bow. In fact, most
of the children's fashions are but miniatures
OF the older peoples styles. Dainty lace sun
bonnets prevail for the little ones from two
to six years of age Among those saw was

face, composed of dotted net shirred quite
full with broad frill about the face and short
cape, large bunch OF figured white satin

the ties to go under the chin were made of
net with broad hem. Some of these sun
bonnets are made of material to match the
dress. Camps are worn quite as much as

in about one inch from the edge of the ruffie.

cuff of null, with white embroidery turned
back upon it, and narrow white rufies of
embroidery about the neck

ten years, than brown dress, tan colored

white lace are shown.
