British Uniforms.

The most expensive of England’s soldiers’ garbs is the bandmaster’s of the life guards, which cost $125. A sergeant-drummer of the foot guards may well “swell his chest” when he wears a tunic costing no less than $37.50, the total value of his “rig-out” being $122.50. The cheapest uniforai of all is that of a private of an ordinary infantry regiment, valued at s2l.
