WEE GIRL’S SMART BONNET

Garlands of Tiny Flowers in Bright Colors Pretty Trimmings for Children’s Hats. ' A rosette made from stiff cords covered with bright red silk, marked in the middle by a flat bottom covered with pale blue, is the only trimming on a child’s hat of plain white straw. A little bonnet of soft white straw turns up from the face with a narrow brim faced with bright orange; and on the top of the crown is poßed a little bow of orange ribbon. Narrow ribbon edged with a line of parti-colored straw buttons decorates the crown of a third hat and garlands 6f tiny worsted flowers in bright colors a fourth. Another is content with a bouquet tearposed of one big rose and two green leaves embroidered in the same primitive stitch. Very smart is a child’s hat with a large round crown and narrow brim, that broadens suddenly id- front and: turns sharply up against the crown that is covered with soft silk striped in gay Bulgarian colors. The edge is adorned witl\ little stuffed balls formed by bits of the silk pulled and tied into place.
