The German Soldier Equipment.

Anew outfit is being rapidly intro.
duced throughout the whole German
army. One, indeed of the alterations,
asst does not involve any new equip
ment, has been already taken up by all
the regiments-thati is, the strapping
of the overcoat round the knapsack in.
stead of over the shoulders and across
the body. This has the great advan.
tage of allowing the man TO breathe
more freely and to open his coat il he
wishes. The knapsack itself has been
changed and is of a longer shape than
before. 1t consists of two parts, the
knapsack proper and the pocket. the
former cont aiming the soldiers linen.
the later the famous ''pease
aud bacon. The belt is, in the new
outfit, nil important and serves to
make the whole equipment fast From

which has been so shortene d that it Is

while In front two pouches are at

similar pouches holding only 10

contains 40 cartridges. made up in Two
