a group of solid daughters of the
fathsrland-a fatherland just then
frowning OH an exiled son. Loyal
German as he was, Prince Joachim
can scarcely be blamed for preferring
the sparkling gem TO it's heavy set

full. Z She is daring. Even royal
princes cannot overawe her and this
particular royal prince had more than

Joachim Has Talent
