Going Home to F et al A tale of Orville Gilbert’s return to a forgiving home
Orville Gilbert, once a troublemaker who fled west after aligning with a criminal gang, returns to Connecticut thirty years later. After earning wealth in California, he reads a James Whitcomb Riley poem that stirs him to seek his aging parents. At the old house he discovers his mother and father now living in the Home for the Friendless, where his mother reveals a quiet sacrifice. He reconciles, caring for them and intending to stay, as Margaret Pixley explains she kept the family afloat out of affection for the boy society shunned.

Comic Fragments and Ads in a Local Page
A scattered page mixes wry quotes and humorous snippets with fragmented notes. The text nods to jokes about honesty and love while skewering social quirks. It mentions ads for kidney cure and a product called Rocky Mountain and ends with a plug to patronize advertisers.
Old fashioned cure for consumption praised as fat rich diet
A pamphlet extols salt pork as a remedy for consumption and promotes Scott's Emulsion as a modern fat feeding method. It argues fat supports digestion and lung repair, claiming cod liver oil and hypophosphites in the emulsion renew vitality and help diseased lungs.
