Pretty Plush Bonnet for Little Maiden

HERE is one of those pretty plush bonnets that are destined to protect and adorn the heads of little girls when they are all dressed up. Plushes and all pile and napped fabrics are favored for many purposes, but more especially for millinery. This bonnet is made of silk plush in a light color laid ovef a frame. The brim is covered witn the plush on the upper side and faced with shirred chiffon on the under side. The crown is a puff of plush, not very full and supported by a crinoline interlining. The bonnet is lined with a desirable light-weight silk. The trimming is of the simplest character. A crushed band of wide, messaline ribbon about the crown and ties of the same. Where they are fas-

tened at the side, tiny nosegays of familiar flowers are sometimes used. Often smalt soft rosettes, made by shirring the ribbon or by little groups of very short loops, finish the trimming here. But her little ladyship may be indulged with little diminutive ostrich tips, or novel little fur ornaments, or specially designed rosettes, by way of pleasing her, if she is allowed a preference. Children’s millinery is so carefully designed at present that mistakes need not be made in the matter of making a choice.
