The Wasp — 1918 — page 304: what you’re looking at

What you’re looking at

This page contains only text—no visible cartoon or illustration. The passage describes diamonds found by an impoverished man who needed food and clothing for his family. The narrator claims ignorance about what became of these diamonds and the man's fate. Without additional context or images showing who is speaking, the specific situation referenced, or the magazine's date, the satirical target remains unclear. The text likely comments on wealth inequality, crime, or corruption common to *The Wasp's* satirical focus, but the exact reference—whether to a real incident, prominent figure, or contemporary scandal—cannot be determined from this page alone.
