Bishop Dress for Baby Wear.

20 make a second complete wardrobe
and certainly she regretted the fancy
stitchery on which she spent so much
time in May and June
Simplicity marks the lingerie Of
Miss Baby Plain scalloped edge and
dotted embroidery has taken the
place of more elaborate designs for
trimming and very few tucks are
used
The picturesque, developed along
simple lines, Is a feature of juvenile
faiment this season. That is, little
frocks that are quantity old-fsshloned
in their lines are made from plain ma.
terials and are little trimmed. This
means very short, puffed sleeves,
square or round necks showing the
flesh literally, rather long skirted eff.
fects, no ruffles or tucks, but deep
hens and short stockings or socks
with diminutive black slippers.
This innovation of extreme sim.
plicity is a boon to both mothers and
children. II means far less labor to
the mother, far less fussing for the
children. Five or six of these simple
little dresses in the weekly laundry
does not mean so much, but were they
covered with tucks frills, lace and en-
broidery the work would be trebled.
An old style that is revived is the
bishop dress for the youngsters to
play in, and IL made in fine material is
quite pretty enough to visit in How.
ever, it works up so well in little
checks, with just touch of embroi-
dery at the neck and sleeves, that 1t
is most popular IN that sort of mate
rial. The sleeYcs af these bishop
dresses form part of the dress and
are Joined right on to the neck band,
and you cannot imagine how child
welcomes the freedom OF these little
play frocks.
The same simplicity Is found in out
er garments, and the plain long coat
that falls in unbroken lines from the
shoulders is the favorite for young
children, and 1t is always becoming
to them.
Time was when belts were used,
fancy buttons, colored braids and
even lace, but those must all be put
away for another time. A little vel.
vet collar can hardly be classed as
trimming TO some children who are
particularly pale or sallow, It lends a
tone to their cheeks, and for such
children II is recommended
Almost all the babies are wearing
little plain pique hats, the tops of
which are buttoned on. These little
hats protect the babys eyes and are
readily laundered For the little one
who still wears cap, one made of
a sheer handkerchief is as pretty and
effective as those costing much
more.
These should be fitted to the head
OF the child and tied with a tiny pink
or blue ribbon under the chin. Sun.
bonnets for the children who play out,
doors are again much worn, and can
readily be made at home, while the
older children who wear straw hats
have them trimmed with just an ex.
tremely large bow of ribbon or a
wreath of flowers.
