Little girl dies not apply.
A fragmentary column blends a rite of passage for a four year old girl with disjointed notes on prison pits, deodand law, Rossetti chat, ancient derision methods, snake tongue function, shifting nature, and scattered jokes. The reading mixes cultural rituals, historical curiosities, and aphoristic humor in a single collage.

Pomelo of China and Other Oddities in Brief
A collage of notes on fruit, giants in lore, old world sayings, and odd human interest items. It discusses the pomelo as a hardy citrus from southern China, then surveys tall tales of giants from antiquity and Biblical figures. Short vignettes cover sailors, old age, manners of actors, and light quips about health and humor.
