In Carthage on a Friday morning in 1895 readers debate farm prosperity. Critics question always relying on one or two crops and recount how middlemen profit along the meat supply chain. The column cites Eugene Field’s brief fortune and warns against emulating such waste.
The article surveys early forecasts of foods produced chemically, including vegetal-vegetable milk made from vegetable oil and maltose, claimed to suit infants and invalids. It also reports Dr Luys on mind cure notions, electricity as disease carrier, and a quip about feminine cooking intuition versus thermometers. It concludes with Professor Sanborn estimating that occasional outdoor relief costs taxpayers about 10 million dollars.
A reflective piece on college educated women challenging marriage scrutiny and asserting independence. It contrasts women’s career paths with social expectations and defends enlisted soldiers against officer favoritism while urging merit over aristocracy. It also surveys Turkish reforms and a pro Cuban neutrality stance interwoven with reflections on youth, age, and enthusiasm.
A short guide on recognizing early signs of croup in children and how to prevent it. It notes that laryngeal hoarseness and a rough cough signal onset, urges prompt use of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy, and claims safety and effectiveness, with local druggist O S Coffin & Co. selling it.
A heavy cold may lead to pneumonia or consumption. Foley's Honey and Tar taken in time affords perfect security from serious results. 50c. O. 8. Coffin & Co.
A fragment states that the wealth of Great Britain has increased fortyfold, attributed to Mole Qath Lent. The limited readable text offers no further context or dates.
A collection of medical ads from O. B. Coffin & Co. promotes DeWitt's Witch Hazel Salve for eczema, Chamberlain's Remedy for colic and diarrhoea, DeWitt's Little Early Risers, and One Minute Cough Cure. The notices also mention tramps in London and mammoth tusks, plus Sweden’s female majority in statistics.
The item mentions a German calculating Napoleon I consumed about 5.8 million yen from 1802 to 1813, roughly 0.5 million per year. It also advertises DeWitt’s Little Early Risers and Chamberlain’s Pain Balm, with a local dealer Coffin & Co. and a humorous dialogue from a Texas setting about marriage.
