A curious old advertisements pitch a book titled No-to-fac the wonderful tobacco habit one claiming no physical risk from use of One-Ma-Bae. It touts easy costs, mail order availability, and a Little Giant Pills product guaranteed by druggists OG. F. Pander.
A garbled excerpt recounts a cold stern Trinity master named Koanpson and a frightened Trinity student seeking shelter. It blends stray quotes about doctors, remedies like DeWitt’s Witch Hazel Salve, a tale of a clerk in the West, and a travel gossip note about excursion tickets. Interspersed are fragmented dialogue bits and stray humor from newspapers.
The piece blends a history of the U S flag with anecdotes on 18th and 19th century civic life including debates over stars and stripes and an anecdote about a tramp, a dog, and dignity. It also threads in reflections on women’s progress, education, and philosophy framed by period commentary from Scribner’s and other sources.
