Another, fresh from convent school
in Nice, has not returned TO PRO
nounced American duds"-phrase dear
to some tourists and trayelers-but
goes demure in straight black frock
and white hat, like a proper little
Frenchwoman. Yesterday this model
so far relaxed as to treat her doll to
a ride on her bicycle. "Picinna, picin-
na"-little one, little one-"sit still" "
she chartered to it-poor French, but
good motherly advice and good Nice
Patois.
With the little Frenchwoman was
the quaintest child in the neighbor-
hood, like one of Mary T.. wilkins old
fashioned New England paidens with
small, serious face and plain, quiet
colored dresses that yet have something
of the grace and picturesqueness of
Kate Greenaway.
Some of the girls wear gymnasium

divided skirts, like bicycle suits-to and

sters have jolliest times.

girls of 12 or thereabouts, the freedom
If the limbs is checked so suddenly.
Twelve seems to mark the dividing line
between the short dress, which, this
winter, looks shorter than ever, and the
longer gown, which apes grown-up
dress in being longer than usual.
When l go out TO Fifth avenue and
see the school parade there / am sor-
rier yet; the girls grow up so young
and the little maidens who cannot sport
the fine clothes, the watches and Jew
elry of the rest, or whose mothers re-
fuse to turn them into young ladies,
suffer so many pangs that are unnec-
essary.
1t is not possible, though, to be mel
ancholy over the pretty things that
are making for the Christmas festivi-
ties. The seasons changes in children's
styles for promenade, church and party
dresses are not marked, yet they fol-
low the movement in grown-up gowns.
Sleeves are smaller, skirts have less
fullness and the circular 1lounce is as
universal as elsewhere.

Another very effective and pictur-
esque dress for, the same child is OF
blue serge, and has the semblance of
AN overskirt, formed by trimming of
bright red moire ribbon threaded
through straps of cloth The waist has
belt, bretelles and sleeves showing the
same decoration.
For q younger sister, possibly five
years of age, is very short blue cash
mere dress with pointed revers about
the shoulders, trimmed with narrow
white braid. From below the revers
hangs n frill of white silk, the belt be-
ing of white silk also. This dress is
made with the popular guimpe neck,
ind the waist has two box plaits in
front, two at the back, and is plain at
the sides.
Another finish for the guimpe neck
would be narrow ruches of plaid velvet
ribbon. For the silk frills many peo-
pie would substitute those of sheer
white linen, as at once more distinctive
and more juvenile.
For a girl of 16 is a dress, grace
full in shape, but overturned, of blue
cashmere with blouse waist, and u
skirt made with deep circular flounce,
rounding up on the sides. A round
yoke of black chiffon is finely plated
over blue silk, and is finished at the
neck with a chiffon frill and soft col
lar of black satin. A folded belt of the
same satin circles the waist, while
| both skirt and blouse are trimmed with
many rows of black passementerie, the
skirt, in fact, being almost covered to
the waistline. Similar decorations are
used on the shoulder caps and sleeves.
Children's party dresses are some
times silks in dainty stripes and rose
bud patterns, sometimes of novelty
goods in silk and wool and sometimes
of colored net, trimmed with narrow
satin rihhons- Dance 5-2c-cs for the
