Merry quips and playful vignettes of courtship
A collection of humorous snippets on love and manners. A Providence man’s smoking mishap ends with a laugh as a Swedish servant girl douses him with water. A barbed barb about a poet’s look under moonlight and a joke on a son’s memo randum book hint at social foibles. Hood’s Sarsaparilla notices praise New England testimonials, especially Lowell.

Enthusiastic Endorsement for Hop Bitters in New Hampshire
A July 14 1879 letter from Tia Burcu praises Hop Bitters as a trustworthy remedy amid adulterated medicines. She recounts a palsy scare four years earlier and describes how one bottle failed to help before a second bottle steadied her nerves and enabled clear handwriting. She urges continued honest manufacture to bring benefit to many.
