Brookhaven Briefs From The Broonhaven Reader
The Broonhaven Reader reports a bustling Brookhaven scene with visits, openings, and local happenings. Notables include Mrs. J. W. McGrath visiting Wesson, Miss Bertie Perkine with Mrs. Underwood at Terry, and Dr. Lowenthal's soda fountain growing popular. A long list covers store openings on Cherokee street, the quarterly conference led by Bishop Galloway, park association plans, and social calls at the Davis home. Also noted are frosts impacting crops, a fire killing three children, a Dennett farm visit with Grand agricultural scrap-book notes, and strong praise for Rev. McDonald’s four-year tenure here. The piece closes with admonitions about Prof. Gillespie and a pro alcohol lecture by Dr. Traer, plus a nod to Lewenthal’s and Fitzner’s ventures and Miss Emma Dix’s concert invitation.

Roaches Syrup and Local News From Brookhaven
A garbled advertising blend extols Roaches Syrup as a universal cure for many ailments and urges trial bottles from druggists in the United States and Canada. The item then shifts to local Brookhaven items: a murder near the Lincoln Franklin county line with few details, a judge’s buggy accident delaying Franklin county court, Major Sessions’s vertigo episode, Dr Traer lectures in Hones Hill and Wesson, rising Brookhaven real estate activity, a colored man selling land for a profit, a young woman’s postal soap joke, and injuries to Alec Reeves from a barn accident while working for Frank Larkin Jr. The column mentions De King’s New Discovery for coughs and colds, with Dr. Praer’s agent touring.
