Transcriber’s Notes

This e-text is based on ‘The Century Illustrated Monthly Magazine,’ from August, 1913. The table of contents, based on the index from the May issue, has been added by the transcriber.

Inconsistent spelling and hyphenation have been retained, but punctuation and typographical errors have been corrected. Passages in English dialect and in languages other than English have not been altered. In some cases, such as in ‘Fresh Light on Washington’ (p. 635), errors seem to be introduced deliberately; here, the text has been retained as printed in the original.

The cover image was created by the transcriber and is placed in the public domain.

Plates in tint, engraved for THE CENTURY by H. C. Merrill and H. Davidson
