A satirical essay style column critiques President Roosevelt on military discipline and public figures. It mocks reform talk, offers wry opinions on marriage, dieting, wealth, and education, and ponders character, duty, and virtue with references to Grover Cleveland, Hetty Green, and a New York chorus girl.
A fragment from a Philadelphia Ledger page offers two humorous vignettes. In one, a sharp young lady mocks a professor’s claim to specialization during a silk social, declaring that the least experienced man often succeeds at love. In another, Deacon Knowlton is famed as a hunter with many stories but empty game bags, provoking a physician’s laughter at his tall tales. The third note records Goodley noting Laxeley’s daily job search and Newitt’s remark that he found none.
A prose piece argues the value of becoming universally delightful for women, noting it lasts through middle age. It urges concealing knowledge in conversations with men, hints at male vanity, and prescribes the golden rule toward other women while warning of claws among rivals. It ends with a dubious note on a Parisian grafting artist transforming vegetables.
