Those horsey young women who buy
equestrian pictures of the empress OF
Austria must find il difficult to recon-
Gle the dashing horsewoman of the
photographs with the grandmother of
the suicide Crown Prince Rudolph's lit

press, now "a and probably forever dis

had picture taken Tor the public since
1867. One OF her earliest and least
known photographs shows her young
wife in riding habit, hut as only her
head and bust are visible and she does
not wear riding hat the presence Of
her favorite attire would hardly be sus-
pected. Her latest photograph, now
quite quarter of a century old, repre-
sents her in court robes and crown as

There wxs recently exhibited to q
few privileged visitors at Nara, at one
time the capital OF Japan. wonderful
hoard of Japanese relics. dating from
about the eighth century Of our own
era In A. d. 74s the Emperor Shoinu
moved to Kioto, and the priests of the
celebrated temple at Nara were left in
possession of large number OF articles
in use in the palace by the emperor and
his predecessors. Thus the temple be-
came the depository of dresses, utensils,
ornaments, and the like belonging to
the three emperors and empresses OF
the first half of the eighth century.
To realize the Importance of this coli
lection. we must imagine what the dis
