'Hm! He looked rather dandyish, to be sure, a lot of decorations in his buttonhole, whiskers trimmed as carefully as the box in my garden, and, instead of honest spectacles, a pair of eye-glasses. But no man is perfect.
Everything was out of the normal, and the brilliant colors which would have seemed so dandyish to him at other times appealed to him now. He suddenly recalled that these men were in gray uniforms, and he, too, wore a gray uniform. They were his own people, cavalry of the Southern army. Recovering his presence of mind, he ran forward, shouting and waving his hands.
As Paul handed the flagon, Israel's eye fell upon his hand. "You don't wear any rings now, Captain, I see. Left them in Paris for safety."

Dick and Dave, looking wholly rough and ready in their sweaters, padded trousers and heavy field shoes, stepped out of the marching formation as though obeying an order. The chums looked almost uncouth, compared with the immaculate, dandyish pair, Dodge and Bayliss.
