The London Mail reports on Regent's Park animals showing varied sleeping patterns by species.

A fragment describes Japanese beverages shōchū mirin and rice wine with 11 to 14 percent alcohol along with the stronger shōchū at 20 to 40 percent. It notes ceremonial use and formality in serving, plus a sour initial taste and stronger effect on Japanese drinkers. The text shifts to a peanut growth quirk, then brief jokes and banter about leave, funerals, and a new boarder at a table.
