Notes

Content: Image torn along edges. Printed on border: "The reader need not be alarmed for the safety of the [sol]ldier on the left, with a sword-bayonet at his throat. The "boys" are merely posing to please Mr. Dotter, who favors exciting situations in his war views. The cat in the foreground is of the genuine Filipino species, distinguished by its short, crooked tail."
