Eyeglasses and the view of aging in public life

A humorous 19th century vignette describes a drover buying a Durham from Montgomery County and being invited to the White House "for breakfast" by a man posing as William Henry Harrison. The fake president impresses the drover who flees in fear when recognizing the deception, ending with the drover cursing himself. The piece also recounts an English experiment in lamination using white walls and arc-lamp reflectors, and a nursemaid joke about avoiding cops.
