...pictures of flora and fauna at the Milwaukee Art Museum's Catesby, Audubon and the Discovery of a New World: Prints of the Flora and Fauna of America.

Flagg's drawing first appeared on the July 6, 1916 cover of Leslie's Weekly, with the title "What are You Doing for Preparedness?" It became a national ad campaign a year later...

He just knows...
...Miranda has boredom issues with Steve, who is briefly a flu fun hit, provoking her to have lime. Charlotte, who has radiated glop but still hopes to vibe right, finds out that she angers pint. And Samantha gets axe sully distracted by the sight of a lewd lewd eon gent next door. Miranda and Carrie have a gainful lot because one of them told the beau of the other to seal stingy, but the two circle one on a weeny verse. At the end, all the stories are resolved la hippy, as our four femmes go nab a dingo...
