Two distinct types Of night gar
ment are noted in the Fifth Avenue
shops which cater especially to the
Juvenile smart set.
First, the very smartly tailored
pajama in very good imitation OF the
kind Dad likes. and made. as his are,
in all sorts, of fabrics and color COM
binations, such as a natural pongee
suit with trimming bands of scarlet
silk. or one of the very finest quality
of sateen in light blue with trimming
Of white. Both little girls and boys
wear these gay pajama suits.
Vying for popular favor with the
tailored sleeping garment for little
girls is the be-frilled and be-ribboned
"Billie Burke" which may be made
of n kind of cotton or silk fabric,
but is this spring best liked in
sprigged dimity or crepe. with dainty
lace-edged frills at ankles.
The last pesky touch Of femininity
is given to these flowered crepe
nighties by a ribbon bow. or a belt OF
black velvet baby ribbon.

Anybody who visits the nursery
after its occupants are asleep misses
something charming in these days,
and that is a good look at the chill
dren's sleep toys. which are being
furnished in such a variety of quaint
and delightful styles.
OF the nightie modes of yesteryear
only one remains, and that Is the
bishop style. which Is slipped on over
the head. This type always looks
very demure. and is especially liked
by many mothers because Ii Is so
easy to launder. being flat, I'M

almost any type of little maid.
More and more, however, little
girls are wearing night toys with
legs rather than the long gown. For
quite little children of either sex the
one-piece sleeping garment with
