mediation now swings on through con

The waist, below the two buttons
at the neck. opens in two small revers
faced With moire, and the lace fills in
the opening.
The skirt is made with tunic over
shaped hounce that hangs longer in
the back than in front. A wreath of
very small blossoms and single
half-blown rose with foliage provide
the hat with bit of lively color.
The black crepe de chine in the last

In the center figure the ribbon is
put on in sash about the crown with
fat shirred rosette applied on the

the hat at the right side with tiny
cluster Of button roses The center

is knotted at intervals, are used for

Milan hats like these are not at
all hard to trim, and the home mil
liner may manage them very success
fully The shapes are more expensive
than less durable straws, but by fol
lowing the copy and trimming them
at home one may save the expense
of the milliners work and bring the
price down to the allowance made.
The home miIliner will accomplish
better results by following copy
than by trying to execute independent
ideas For children's hats are de
signed by specialists, and even the
professional miliner is guided by
their work.

gical and attractive ways with plain
or figured ribbons. silk covered but
tons and rings. silk tassels, fiat braid
flowers and other novelties suited to
juvenile millinery
Ribbon, as in former seasons. is
more In evidence on chilGren's hats
than any other trimming. But. In a
time when the millinery of grownups
is SO universally flower trimmed, It
is natural that this vogue should be
reflected in hats for little people.
Therefore. on lacy, dressy hats for
midsummer wear one sees tiny
wreaths and little nosegays of the
best known flowers adorning chill
dren's hats But on the heavier
straws, particularly ON milan, the best
effects are wrought with ribbon trim
ming.
Three good shapes pictured here,
are trimmed with plain messaline rib
bon The methods of applying II are
worth studying because they are char
acteristic OF children's millinery and
SO different from the elaborate bows
