f IX . J ro It' It', I Pretty Lace Bonnets . jirTK. Vl- ALs. c r x-xsv s . i - mt . . . i 11 J I N " vV" " tf . M- THERE is no doubt now that hntB (or rathor bonnets) made of lace will be a leading feature in head wear forchildrentluring the com ing spring. Already, those who create the styles for the public's acceptance, or rejection, have made many beau tiful bonnets and bonnet-liko hats, with such good success, that they will be cure to sell. They appeal to the moth ers from the standpoint of beauty and utility, and more than all, from that of economy. The majority aro mado of narrow val lace and those of other laces as a rule will show good wearing qualities. These pretty head coverings are mado In nearly every case on a wire frame which is faced with shirred silk or chiffon. But sometimes the brim facing is also of lace. Ribbons in silk or velvet aro used with them. Many small flowers, too, add to their beauty. They aro set in prim and quaint fash ion about the crowns, or in one or two little bouquets on tho brim. Forget-me-nots, Juno roses, moss-rose buds, small daisies and blossoms of fruit trees re FOR SPRING WEAR Tho young woman who wants to get her spring sewing done ahead of time cannot do better than to copy this charming frock, just completed for a brido who will pass her honeymoon at Aiken. Tho material Is white per nio fabric, a soft, lustrous weave of wool with mohair, though any light weight fabric will answer equally well. Tho scalloped pipings and sash aro of gay plaid silk In rod, green and white and tho scallops around tho bot tom of the skirt aro particularly smart. Beneath these scallops tho little white boots show plainly. Theso pretty boots aro of white buckskin aud havo tho new 10 button tops. Smart Evening Gowns. Laco and tho most gorgeous of bro cades threaded with gold and silver and worked in flowers of wool or silk, or both, mako up the most handsome of ovenlng gowns. But beaded net is also used, with a softening nolo of old laco on tjio shoulders. i Vv Jf'ffi) fir - Ml f I ! .fMf -ii,." i . m main tho favored posies for little folks. 3mall field flowers look well with tho heavier laces. There is really a great amount ol work on children's millinery, but it is not of tho most difficult character. Tho pretty hats of lace shown hero aro not beyond the skill of tho mother who makes her children's dresses. Tho wire frame must bo bought from the millinery shop or the department storo and covered with mull of silk before tho lace and facing aro put on. Usu ally the finished hat looks considerably larger than tho frame. Val and cluny laces aro the favor ites. Quito a number of novelty laces have been brought out, but aro not more attractive than those we havo had heretofore. White and pale colors make up near ly all tho bonnets so that a choice of colors is easy enough. Very thin silks, chiffons and laces, are used for fac ings. Wide, soft ribbons or narrow velvet ribbons are c'losen, with small flowers for (.rimming. JULIA BOTTOMLEY. UTILIZING THE SOILED SHOE Dayo of Usefulness May Be Extended If Article Is Not Too Far Gone. Hero aro a couple of hints for thn girl whoso dress allowance has to go a long way: White kid shoes which are too soil ed to wear and which are still of a good shapo may be rcnowed for even ing wear by painting them with gold paint. Do this carefully and smoothly and the shoes will look like new. In some cases even soiled satin slippers may be successfully treated in this way. White kid shoes may also bo dyed a fast black by applying the follow ing mixture to them: Five cents' worth of gallic acid and five cents' worth of sulphate of iron Put tho sulphate of iron in just as much water as is required to dissolvo It, no more, and apply this to tho shoes. Let it dry, then dissolvo tho gallic acid in a vsrv Httln wnt.or nnd ) apply this. When dry tho shoes should oo a good olaclc color. Great caro must bo taken in using these chem icals, nnd after they have been used tho surplus quantity should be thrown away. For the Wee One. During tho winter months a warm wrapper to slip over tho baby when he is being taken from one room to an other is a necessity. A very pretty one may bo mado of nun's veiling in pink or blue, with an underlining, of thin wadding and batlsto. Tho dainty little garment might bo embroidered or scalloped round the edge and would provo a pretty present for baby nnd also a most useful ono. Tho wrapper should be large enough to slip on easily,- for nothing Jnrs a child's nerves more than to bo forced into a coat that is too small, nnd If tho wrap takes the form of capo it is equally necessary that it bo largo enough to envelop tho little form when, as In this case, warmth is tho object to bo secured. Dainty Lace Caps. Laco caps aro much in vogue for young girls. It takes tho dainty coif fure of the mnld to produco tho proper effect when tho caps aro worn, and tho bits of vanity aro hardly sultablo for women of years. All sorts of old laco aro being utilized in tho manufneturo of the caps, the latter being especially desirable for theater wear. They aro often finished with sprays of tiny pink rosebuds, and fit closely over tho hair. Blouses With 811k Suite. Hand tucked tullo blouses aro worn with silk suits. They aro mado quite simple, trimmed only with tullo or net jabots or pllsscs. e.x- .. OOD mi ten without enjoyment Ilea like lend In Oio Rtnmnoh and Uoi-H moi e Imrm Minn kooiI. Henry Ij. Finch.
