RISIBLE READING AND TINY TALES IN BRISTOL AND BEYOND

A collage of humorous notices and anecdotes from Bristol, Albany, Detroit, and Virginia. Jokes about fly traps, asteroid hunts, libel suits, animal kindness, and a minstrel show misfit paint a lively slice of late 19th century newspaper humor with local color and quick, moralized quips.

Strange people near Siberia on Vega expedition

Nordenskjold meets native Tschuktschers at Cape Schelagskot coast, a hardy, money-averse tribe living in double tents with naked inner children and shaven men. They resemble Esquimaux and North American Indians, drive off Onkious inhabitants, and speak an unknown tongue. The Vega landing is likened to Columbus, with extraordinary regional interest. Dr Bull's Cough Syrup ad ends the piece.
