are fewer Vatican capes now, perhaps. but
am inclined to believe that they have been
innately unpopular from the first. 1t was so
easy to manufacture the homemade article
and smooth the misfits into the sin-concealng
fold that the 800 garment mingled with
plebeian upstairs which could scarcely boast
$50 between them. So the Vatican is going
out. In its place is worn tight jacket, faring
at the bottom. 1t may be double breasted and
trimmed with two rows of buttons besides the
fur edge and the inevitable collarette. The
buttons must be large and of metal. A green
cloth jacket has double row OF gilt fligree
buttons as large as o dollar.
Another jacket diguifed as the 'Recamier,''
is belted with fold of brown velvet A deep
collar is embroidered in dull gold threads, but
is not trimmed with the dark mink, which
edges the front of the garment. There is a
collar and muff of fur and the toque is made of
the almond colored cloth of the jacket, trimmed
with q couple of stiff quilts,
V-shaped collarettes of ox-plaited velvet or
silk plush vie with the round cape. One came
met the broad Empire belt. But you will note
that the Vatican was not evolved therefrom.
The Medci collars are more compact and
not SO high as they were two months ago But
1t is still too early to predict the coming mood
In out-of-door garments. Will we wear
the cool and becoming REFER? Well, hardly;
1t has enjoyed so stable popularity that its
congo must be given soon. Military capes q Ia
Russo bid fair to come into public favor, but
the real spring jacket-the jacket of March and
April-is still in allegiance

the figure in the fashion Of an ordinary long
cloak. Either changeable velvet or silk can be
used as lining; for our model brown velvet
with large yellow brocaded flowers on it was
used. The double collar was of yellow velvet
and so was one girdle, which was embroidered
with brown beads. With the wrap was worn
very small turban-shaped cap of yellow velvet,
trimmed with yellow ostrich plumes and an
antique buckle.
Another outer garment for eve aing wear IL
presented in the next picture. 1t is an opera
cape with double velvet collar. The cape is
made of striped mauve and pink lined with
wooden material, which serves instead Of the
ordinary silken lining and is also warmer. The
mauve stripe Of the lower part OF this opera
cloak merges into ereenish shade and the pink
stripes have narrow diagonal lines which give
the impression Of being raised or embossed.
The velvet collar is cut round, so that it stands
out on the shoulders. and it is but little gath
cred at the neck. The lining of the changeable
velvet collar must be cut out first and properly
fitted. 1t is alike back and 'front.' and is sewn
in at the same time with the long cape.
The empire gown. when modified by the train
and petticoat effect, admits much elaboration
as in the example pictured the petticoat rart
may have az the foot border costly and ele-
CANT as you like. 1t may be lace, knots Of rib
bon, flowers or rich beading. The material
may be of the richest. and may either match or

A PROMENADE COSTUME.
Ultra Fashion and Ultra Common Sen
Walk Hand in Hand.

Ultra Fashion and Ultra Common Sense
Walk Hand i'm Hand.
Since the fall aud decay Of the trained street
dress the ultra fashionable women have adopted
walking costumes which swing clear Of the
ground. More than that, they are short enough
to show boots and ankles. The short gown is
almost invariably trimmed with broad band
Of fur. which marks the effect and draws atten-
ton TO the fact that whereas the wearer dragged
. train of superlative length two months ago
she has now become the ardent disciple Of the
radical wing.
Those abbreviated skirts are full and lined
often with silk alone. OF course, they are
purely and simply promenade costumes and
their 1880 fullness is highly suggestive
of business like strides and promenades for
a purpose. One seen on the avenue was Of
heliotrope cloth and dahlia velvet. Three
rows OF Alaska sable were set around the skirt
at interals Of about eight inches. Between them
were twists Of the velvet. The bodice was tight
fitting and fastened invariably. broad velvet
belt was tied about the waist in butterfly bow.
Bouffsnt velvet sleeves frightened suddenly at
the elbow, fitting closely to the wrist.

just remember that when you contemplate
putting purple veil over your rosy cheeks, and
don't do it. As for green wells, what can one
say. The woman who will wear one is beyond
advice. As well leave her to her own destruc-
ton, and what is worse. let her disturb every one
who looks at her. BY the way, the purple we
find in old brocades makes the modern purple
seem harsh and garish. The modern purple
has a stone grayness Of tone, the old purple has
a soft, almost rosy shade. Let this be a word
to the wise.

tied around the elbows and finished with a
hounce of the lace.
Another evening robe worn by the same
woman Ia a thoroughgoing Empire, also en-
train. The bust is bound with turquois blue
chiffon caught in large bow on the left side
and falling thence in a blue cloud to the hem
Of the gown. The sleeves are merest shoulder
puffs.
A third costume has an umbrella skirt trim
med with two bands of fur. The bodice IL
slightly draped. A chemisette of embroidered
tulle fastened at the shoulder with diamond
sunbursts makes bell shaped sleeves which fly
about lightly as the wesrer turns.

A long fur boa and large muff completed
the gowns trimming, for no jacket was
worn with it. Other pretty morning dresses
follow the 1880 model as to short waist,
gathered skirts and buckled belts. With
these are worn the three little capes which
were so popular on jackets earlier in the
season. But in this case no fur is used to
border them; instead, fiat bands Of Russian or
Oriental embroideries repeated on the skirts
brighten the costumes.

There is newly imported gown Of pink
satin shot with green. 1t is to be worn by
woman noted for her genius in dress and the
almost unique fancies she embodies in some Of
her costumes. Madame, be it understood is
almost, but not quite, a mode maker.
The gown to be discussed, however, is not
strikingly unconventional; it lie, in fact, very
much in the existing mode. But it is prettier
