while and they are 80 sweet while they
are babies, and they cen mover bo babies
again.
BY and by there will be big, manly, but
noisy boys in their places, and tall, grace-
full and lovely big girls where the babies
were And the girls will wear pink or
blub, according to their complexion One
will look almost as dear and dainty as a
baby In pale blue organdie dotted with
white. There will be--nay, there is--a
pretty row Of jagged edged lace around
the bottom of It, The belt is of the same
ttiffened, aud there Is very full blouse
front of the same organdie. The sleeves
In their sharp puffs, designed TO hide the
thin, girlish arms, are of the same delicate
stuff, with row of the lace on the neat
cuffs. On the shoulders are bands of or
candle edged with lace, and Just q wee bit
Is on the collar, with It's winglike bows In
the back. Perched up on the blond head
there is transparent hat OF black silk
muslin, and clusters of lace for trimming,
the whole seeming a nebulous soN OF
crown above the gold.
A matron needs richer and more state
ly garb than does the bright young crea-
ture just stepping over the threshold OF her
morning. I saw model one recently Of
taffeta silk In the new blue, which holds
several shades Of that color without being
irridescent, leaving the prevailing color
dark indigo, with beautiful broken lights
In its folds There was first gathered
yoke Of medium blue satin. This was seal
loped very slightly on its lower edge and
bordered with three round milliner's folds
In satin. To this yoke the gown was at
tached, the sides being shaped in princess
style and fitted to the hips. The front was
laid In one fat fold to the feet. There was
q double watteau fold In the back, falling
to demitrain. Around the wrists of the
forearm parts Of the sleeves were six folds
set on like the rest In waved pattern.
Around the bottom of the skirt were three
other folds these being several shades
darker. There was high blue satin stock
collar. There were no laces, ribbons or
other trivial ornamentatlon. The whole
plan was rich and, as the French say, con-
tenue.
More stylish, though not so refined is a
costume just made for Saratoga races.
The whole costume Is Of cream white ben
galine In dull luster. The skirt Is paquin
In shape and untrimmed and coming to a
demitrain In the back. The waist is in
blouse shape.with iabot front of old rare
point. The belt is Of crushed reseda satin
ribbon ending In small triple loops edged
with the lace. The stock collar is of reseda
silk muslin with wide outstanding bows
Those to whom this style Is becoming still
continue 1t, very sensibly too. The sleeves
are of bengaline, not very large, but stif1lv
puffed with manches under the long cream
gloves The short cape is so very full
that 1t falls In voluminous folds all around
The revers and Louis XVI collar are
faced with pale reseda silk and stiffly ell
broidered with silver thread In an intricate
Persian pattern. The costume would not
be complete without the parasol, which is
Of white bengaline with chiffon ruffles and
pink roses with green Grape foliage, which
