Be Shrewd In Trade Yet Steer From Pharisee Pressure
The text counsels a tough business persona: oily, versatile, polite yet untrusting, a courier who avoids religious pretense and questionable ethics. It warns against using church ties for worldly schemes and warns against manipulators, urging vigilance and cash-based dealings to lure profit and gain world recognition.

How to Sweep a Store by an American Merchant
An American merchant offers practical store sweeping methods. He favors wet sawdust laid in a row to absorb dust and prevent excess moisture, comparing it to a marching regiment. He notes sawdust catches dirt, dries slowly, and reduces scattering. The piece ends with an advertisement for Hood's Sarsaparilla.
Remarkable indifference shown in Treuton trial scene
In a Chambers case trial at Treuton a witness Frank Jenkins, a black man, testified plainly while whitewashing a chicken coop nearby. The cross examiner pressed him to reveal actions, but he stayed focused on his task, saying he kept whitewashing as events unfolded. The judge and crowd reacted with amusement at his steadfast neutrality. The exchange also touches on a suffragist question and the witness’s reply about his husband.
