FRENCH CHASSEURS DES AMPINS, DEFENDERS OP THE MOUNTAIN FRONTIERS OP 



PRANCE 



No hardier soldiers are to be found anywhere than these mountaineers of the French 

 Alps. Every one an expert mountain climber, every one accustomed to the perils of the 

 avalanche and the precipice, they are men who know no fear and for whom death has no 

 terrors.
