honor by the Imperial court. Military
pngeants form an integral part of every
grand reception in the Prussian capt.

mark that they were "a fine body of
men, eyes," replied Prince Alex
ander, "but they are not tall enough. :"
This reply delivered with the tradl-
tional Dutch phlegm, little surprised
his intcrlocutor, who, however, merely
observed, Very well; then you must
see my cuirassicrs." The culrasslers,
erect In their saddles like men.at-arms 3
Of the Middle Ages, went by In breast
plates and plumcs. "Well, what do
you think of them2" asked Prince
Fritz. splendid men, bu, not tall
