IkSE3SM for IL has come to be quite the
- thing to buy children's clothing
ready made. Carrying out the latest effects
in make, material and trimming, the spring
and summer toggery shown for boys and
girls is of unusual desirability.
Everywhere effort has been made to
achieve variety in models, whose former
sameness was the principal drawback to
little garments not made to order. Now,
among the better things, scarcely two
designs are alike, and even the cheaper
ones will vary the similarity OF model and
stun by having the trimming put on in a
distinctive way.
As with grown up styles, the sleeves Of
all the little feminine t%oilettes are pic
turesque. The heavy laces and the equally
imposing hand embroideries are seen, and
many a small frock will show the shirred
and tucked hip-yokes and tunic suggestions
OF maturer fashions.
Russian blouse suits are still made for
the smaller boys, with which large sailor
hats OF patent leather will be worn. These
are displayed in dark reds and blues as
well as in black and white, with which last
sort an all-white suit is considered In
stylish keeping.
White Is used in many decorative ways
for trimming the costumes OF both sexes,
ana, since IL may De combined with Dlack
at times, something Of a half mourning
look is often the result. Goats Of black
and white checked taffeta, for maids from
4 to 7, are made up in finely pieated
Bacque shapes, into which coarse White
laces are introduced with elegant effect.
The lace collar il almost cape deep, and.
being unlined, II hangs with the limpness
now approved for such details.
On the other hand. the sailor collar of
the small boy is commonly a stin affair,
though II no longer makes at the rear the
deep back-contracting dip once seen. The
new sailor collar 10 far broader than 1t Is
deep, and the sides now spread out over
the shoulders to make their width as i'm
posing as possible. The small gentleman
of the day is always manly in get up, and
~ some OF the French suits are a bit too
frivolous there Is rejoicing over the fact
that they are not widely admired.
For spring and summer wear, materials
are heavier than will be seen later on,
Soft woods in delicate Stuart plsids, spotted
and figured challis, bunting, serge, cheviot
and French flannel are some Of the textures
for girls. The stoutest Of the new lineni
should also. be named. For such dresses
and thinner ones are any number Of stun

shape is sometimes made with a brim roll
of the straw, at each side of which will lie
the trimming, put on in loose folds or else
as double s~carfs. whose short ends run
over the brim to fasten behind at the
crown opening. Big stiff r~osettes Of mar
row velvet ribbon, finely pleated and held
down at the center with an ornamental
button, deck other sailors under the brim
at the back, with the shape otherwise
simply and fatty trimmed.
But the fower-trimmed hat, with ribbon
or velvet streamers, is, after all, the most
childish thing, and for a girl who will
summer in the country nothing is more
charming than a French sunbonnet.
For the rest, the well dressed child need
not necessarily sport the expensive laces
and embroideries of the season. Many a
delightful silk frock is seen with only
bands of narrow black velvet for ornament,
and a touch of fine Hamburg between the
tucks Of the lawn guimpes gives these quite
a splendid air. So much do these dainty
white guimpes, with their puffy bishop
sleeves, glorify a dress that the plainest
cotton frocks are now cut for their ac-
commodation. MARY DEAN.

white wool, and all the pleats Of the under
dress are stitched at the edge, Since this
dress, despite its rich materials, is simple
in effect. a suitable hat to accompany it
would be a leghorn fiat with a black velvet
band and streamers.
Green and white challie accomplishes a
smart frock for a girl Of 10. The very
short skirt is fitted at the hips with a yoke
treatment made by two bias bands Of plain
white embroidered with green SILK dots.
The deep yoke OF the gathered body is also
outlined with two Of these banes. and one
around the neck has the fashionable stole
finish.
A green straw hat, with masses Of small
white nowers and an edge Of black velvet
for character, goes charmingly with this
frock.
For older girls, costumes on the tailor
order lean to grown up influences. Gown

treated in a similar manner. On the short
gored skirt this ornamentation suggests
triple basques, for the three scant, shaped
LOUNGES slant away from the apron gore as
do the tails OF fitted coats. Four red bone
buttons, put on in pairs. decorate the
fronts of the blouse, which fastens invisi-
bly,.
with this toilette a scoop hat in red nov
city straw, with a simple scarf trimming
of white Louisine, was shown as a sui able
headpiecc.
An odd Russian suit OF blue serge, with
white trimmings, for a boy Of 4, displays
the white curiously introduced at the sides
Of the blouse, which has a white shield ana
a round turnover collar. The patent
leather belt is white, and a white sailor in
the same material is advised as effective
headgear.
A Russian suit in thin white cloth for
a girl of z or 8 achieves the title
through a belted apron, which is cut out
like a paper dolls apron, and is plainly put
over a costume in fine kits. The apron
