Transcriber’s Notes:
Reading edition
Punctuation and spelling were changed only where the error appears to be a printing error. The punctuation changes are too numerous to list; the others are as follows:
The original text at the bottom of page 115 was unreadable, and extended to read “...soldiers?”, as that was the logical conclusion of the sentence.
“T Life Members” changed to “To Life Members” on page 126.
What appears to be “5 Rue Serebe, Paris” on page 128 was changed to “5 Rue Scribe, Paris”, as that is the correct address for The Demorest.
