The Hammer and the History of Playing Cards

Antiquarian overview traces cards to Asia and spread through Europe by Jews and Arabs. It notes 13th century German mentions, 15th century trade in Ulm and Nuremberg, and the speculation of card invention to vex Charles VII of France. The piece links suits to social classes and kings to David, Alexander, Caesar, and Charlemagne, with queens and knaves aligned to biblical and noble archetypes. It closes praising the hammer as emblem of industry and civilization.

Humor and Prose Fragments From A Scraps Page

A jumble of verse humor and aphorisms quotes from multiple papers. It includes lines about time and destiny attributed to Eliza M. Sherman, jokes about Paris Niagara and a police rogue, Oscar Wilde sketches, and quips about parties, boarding houses, and blizzards. It also mentions orchids rising in New York and a court martial tale, all in a light, miscellany style.
