More attention has been given to
children's millinery within the past
three years than ever before. The re-
sult is a greater number of designs
10 choose from. This branch of the
nilliner's art was neglected because it
was not profitable to the milliner. But
10 the manufacturers of hats have
begun to produce numbers of pretty
and inexpensive shapes. which may
be quickly trimmed, and the milliner
has been able to show a variety of
models at a price which her patrons
will consider.
Nothing will ever supplant the plain
flat" in felt as the most popular of
hats for the little girl at this season.
Next to 1t are the bonnet-like hats, the
mushroom shapes, with dropping brim
and full, soft crowns. Two of these
pretty and childish models are shown
in Figs. l and 2. In the first a soft
crown of velvet is very ~cleverly mount.
ed to the brim. Six box plaits laid at
equally distant intervals are slashed
SO that a collar of soft ribbon is run
through them and is finished in a rib

hack. The same ribbon is plated in a
rufle about the brim. Little original
touches, such as there are in trim.
ming. are more valuable in making
children's millinery than any amount
of elaboration in work.
Fig. 2 shows a felt hat, faced with
white MORE silk. A velvet crown is
Gil cled with a crushed collar of silk or
ribbon, finished in the simplest of
lows. A finishing touch appears in
the two velvet cabochons which are

Sleeve .EriUs.

The tailors will again introduce the
plated frill at the wrist of coats. This
was tried once before, but met with
little favor. The American oma in.

that she could only stand it on elab.

Here is something new and dainty
In a fall shirt made from cream de.
laine with plated fronts and sleeves
and finished with o linen collar cut in
points and embroidered with self-coior
dots. This collar Is bordered with a
very narrow edging Of real Irish lace
and the bodice is filled In with a
tucked collar and chemisette Of white
lawn. A pretty finishing touch is CIV

open ends.

ornaments. A beehive" shape is
shown in Fig. 3, which is covered with
silk. The silk is shirred to fit the
shape Of the crown, and the brim pre-
v!ously covered with silk, is finished
with a plated ruffle of this material.
A rosette of ribbon or hemmed silk
makes the decidedly pretty finish at
the left side. A knotted rope of gilt or
silver brightens the model, laid over
the brim and tackled down at inter.
walls.

dven's millinery.
A felt fiat which is soiled may often
re successfully cleaned with gasoline.
A certain softness in the brim is desir.
able, but If this lapses into "foppi.
ness" the brim must be supported by
oae of several methods employing
wire. Brims which droop prettily are
inuch more elegant looking and much
more becoming than a stiff, straight
brim can ever be.
Only very simple trimmings are in
good taste for children. The models
shown here demonstrate that only the
simplest are needed. Ribbon above all
c!se. in the plain. soft weaves and hav.
ing a high luster, is the best material
10 choose in decorating a hat for the
little miss.

RECEIVERS FOR. PocAHoNTAs.
Cool Weather Puts the Business o
the Barge on the Fritz.

Jesse E. Potbury of the local bar and
Marcus H. Tracy of New York were ap-
pointed today by Justice Barnard as re-
ceivers of the barge Pocahontas. with au-
thority to continue the excursion busi-
ness
The application for receiver was made
by Burton G. Smith. who tells the court
that irreconcilable differences have arisen
between him and his partner, Laurence
E. Dodge. as to the conduct of the busi-
ness. which. owing TO the recent cool
weather. has not come up to eXpecta-
tions. Mr.. Smith expresses the belief
that the business can be built up by the
receivers and made 10 pay.
Fearing that creditors may learn of
their disagreement and embarrass the
business by legal proceedings Mr.. Smith
says. he decided to ask for the appoint
ment of the receivers. Mr.. Dodge filed
an answer consenting to the appointment.
The Pocahontas began July to give
evening trips of twenty miles down the
river and return without landing. The
warm weather of the first few days of
the month brought good crowds. but the
cool snap caused falling off in the
number of excursionists. The boat Is
leased from g. New York concern. Attor-
neys W. HI. Sholes and J. E. Potbury
represent the partners.
