My father was a frugal man and wasted not a thing. Under the last line of text is an illustration of an adult pointing to a sign saying "Waste not want not" with a child looking on. Half of a set of curtains can be seen to the left of a sign, and some structure (perhaps a chair?) can be seen directly under the sign.
