A reflective verse on aging and social fear centers a bachelor who clings to aging habits like buttons and wires. It meditates on standing still while others move, fearing obsolescence and the humiliation of being seen as out of date. The poem ends with a playful jab about misfit players and the game of ping pong.
A long reflective commentary contrasts historic youthful optimism with modern girlhood, urging mothers to teach contentment in simple joys and traditional duties. It notes rising restlessness, social and artistic ambitions, and the search for fame as causes of melancholy.
An article discusses the national anthem tune, noting Germans claimed the tune, with claims tying it to The Star Spangled Banner’s origin. It cites Dr Samuel Prahes Suwith and Dr Bull as possible authors, and argues Americans should avoid copying Britain while preserving patriotic song. It notes Queen Victoria and Edward VII influences and the difficulty of replacing the tune.
A list of domestic oversights notes leaks, spoiled produce, musty bread, mouldy cheese, uncovered spices, forgotten tea and coffee, rice waste, and wasteful storage. It cautions about pan comings, kettles boiling dry, and tablecloths torn by wind, highlighting poor housekeeping practices.
