Mamma had tried coaXing, scolding

These are the days when the up-to-
date baby may be found in the shops
intent on the selections of its summer
wardrobe. And quite as much taste
and care are involved in the picking
out OF a proper cap, for instance. for
the wee morsel of fashionable human
ity as the grownup belle of the house
hold eXpends in the selection of her
summer chapeau.
A cap which a baby CT the daintiest
kind of taste would be pleased to wear
is Of pink chiffon mounted on pink
China silk. The chiffon is laid in
shirred rufiies-all very narrow-over
the entire cap. The front of the cap
is becomingly finished with four-inch
wide pleated pink satin baby ribbon,
which casts a family roseate shade
over the dimpled little face. Inside
the ruilie, framing the face, is thickly
pleated the pink chiffon, one-inch wide.
The cap is finished with a short cape
of the chiffon, box pleated, and edged
with the shirred baby ribbon. Perched
like a butterfly on the top of the cap is
a chic bow of two-inch wide pink satin
taffeta ribbon, and q rosette of the
same delicately tinted ribbon nestles
among the fluffy folds of the rufie at
the left side of the cap in front. A
twist of satin ribbon heads the rufle
around the face and the top of the
cape, and forms the wide ties.
