BEADS HAVING GREAT VOGUE
seemingly They Can Not Be Out of Place on Any Outer Garment ct
 the Present Fashions.

Beads have a most tenacious hold on the modern imagination. Is it that they hold out imagination enthralled: :: Is 1t because beads are suggestive of luxury, of splendor, that we like them?
 Perhaps it is a relic of our h. dian predecessors-but that cannot be the explanation for Paris seems to like beads as we'll as we do. How ever, nobody seems to know whether the Indians would barter their more prized possessions for beads because they liked the beads themselves, for their brightness and color, or because to them, too, beads suggested splendor and luxury.
 The Indians, be 1t remembered. were and are . people of imagina- ton.
 Whatever the reason, we do cling to our fondness for beads long after we have forgotten some of the things that interested us at the time the present craze for beads came in.
 Beaded tunics are shown on many of the new evening frocks. Some times the beads are sewed on net and sometimes they are simply strung on silk and formed into long tunics.
 Beads are worn about the neck And beads are embroidered on the neck line of chiffon and net evening frocks.

All the officers participate un- der the colonel's lead, for it is looked upon as part of the military duty, as good school for the young and good practise for their elders, increasing the ability of all to meet the stern de- mands of war. A great many of the cavalry regiments keep a pack of hounds. In South Germany the lie of the country only permits of drag hunts, but in the North deer and espe- cially wild boar are coursed, the most favored localities being the Senne and Hanover. This latter place is the home of the Great Military Riding in- stitute. and the hunting there has at- tained some celebrity. Almost all cav airy and many field artillery officers go through 8 course of two years instruc- tion there. There are also special courses for non-commiesioned officers. The teaching is most thorough. and aims at the highest grade of perfec- tion. Long-distance rides form an- other branch of the military service. No horses under eight years may par ticipate; in no case is their endurance
  tion of the horse at the end of the trial being one of the chief points called to account. The great competi- ton of the year is the "Kaiserpreis- ritt," for which the emperor offers prizes to each army corps and the rid ing institute at Hanover. To attain its definite possession, however, the competitor must win the prize twice.
 This article would be incomplete without touching on the jumping com petitions and riding tournaments and are held ia many of the larger towns throughout the empire, and in which officers participate freely. A few years ago these were taken in hand by the ''Kartell fur Reit und Fahrsport," and the good influence of this organization, which is built up on great lines, ex tends not only, to the army. but also to horse breeding generally in Ger. many. The competitions are open to (a) horses in private possession and officers chargers; (b) horses belong ing to the army ridden by non-commis stoned officers; (c) horses that are the property of dealers or of studs There are special tournaments for rid ing horses, high-school horses, compe titions in cross-country, record an6 team jumping. tests of obedience anG usefulness, competitions with specia reference to the riders ability, long distance rides and-as the latest inno vation-cross-countr riding over { distance of twenty kilometers, point, being given for the way obstacles ar, taken as well as for pace.
