The Savannah morning news., 1901-06-16

that no ugly juvenile garments are made
up Allied to the extreme Drettiness OF
the little ones clothes there is d1splayed
the most amazing variety in the cut,
color and decoration of the garments.
Fine bright checks in the light silk and
the bingham suits, have assumed
strong position in the wardrobe of every
little miss, and there are veihngs and
poplinettes and mohair gowns made up
in every color that the elders admire and
patrenize. One comm endable phase of
the chi,dren's clothes this season Is the
absence of any little modes adopted from
the grown ups code of smart costuming.
With the exception of the undersleeve
the children have borrowed nothing this
year and happily small girls, of ten or
therea bouts will wear fewer shirt waists
and odd skirts than formerly. COM
plete gown of cotton, linen or wool is the
proper thing for wear, either to church
or in the play ground and as little lace
IS possible is used on the frock of the
very fashionS BILE little woman.
Embroidery is the most approved trim
ming for every day and very best frocks,
and when 1t is the case Of a tea party
suit, the needle work is of the most ex-
qhsite quality often done by hand as
we'll as the tucking of the nne lawn
yoke collar and sleeves. Lovely little
dresses for Juvenile occasions are made
of the most glittering silk warp poplin
with sleeves, yoke and frill Of white or
tea colored embroidered Swiss, and the
sash ts the sort of thing a little girl may
be justly vain about.
Ribbon snOods and Jeweled Combs.
Panne satin, Liberty satin and Louisine
silk sashes, plain with double hemstatch-
ed ends, or deliberately figured with field
flowers and deeply fringed on the ends,
are the two most approved types OF
glrdle for the ample and Ill defined waist
line Of ana eight OF ten year old belle,
and a snood of ribbon of the same type
as the sash, should adorn the flowing
couture of the fair little merrymaker. A
ribbon on which is strung a crystal heart
or a gilt acorn is the one neck ornament
child should wear, and no matter how
fsncifully the waist of the gown Is made
1t properly buttons in the back.
In the matter of children's shoes O
change has come about, and this spring
little girls are seen wearing ties that
lace and have little more heel than the
nsre spring usually allowed. Some OF
the Oxford ties are made in soft vici kid,
With ornaments of patent leather, but on
whole this change is to be deplored and
the best foot covering is now and always
VIII be high buttoned shoe with nat
sole; at least for children whose ankles
need support and whose shoes laces are
rarely in order. A pretty old-fashioned
strap slipper has been reintroduced this
spring for dancing and full dress occa-
sions.
Lastly, among the small novelties for
girls, the decorated combs must be men,
toned. Band combs as a rule are not
ornamental and a HfnCnunf fort A.
Die but just now they are turning out
snort toothed round combs that hold a
cnHds hair in a pretty, low pompadour
about her face and lend as effective a
touch Of color to her dark or blonde locks
as would the gayest hair ribbon. This
Is because the ridge of the comb is set
WIN bright red coral, turquoise, or cut
amber beads. Some little girls. It is true,
elect to wear combs with filagree gold or
silver bands. in which pearls and rhine
stones are set. but these little ones have
yet TO live and learn a great deal con-
corning taste.
Flower Hats for the Rosebud Girl
The prettieSt idea ever carried out ia
ehildren's millinery is that Of making
nats distinctively devoted to q single
mower IN one or variegated oolors. just
now o little girl wears a daisy hat, q
poppy hat, a lilac, primrose, or wild rose
nat. daisy hat Will be OF pure white
avn shirred on a wire frame, or OF dell
cate white chip and it's decoration inside
ana out will consist of one or three kinds
q daisies. The brown and yellow-heartec
blossoms, with the daisies having pink
,ipped petals, form a thick wreath sboua
me crown, and inside the brim a hand
l1i OF the flowers is arranged TO NJ
osainst the wearer's hair. No other flower
ii used nor II any ribbon employed, new
erIneless the result IL artistically most
saustactory. A lilac hat shows as rule
PINK white and msuve lilac blossoms, or
PINK, white or mAuve frame.
