The Pantry and Salves in odd Reading Greek
An assorted collage of mid century items notes Bucklea’s Arnica Salve and Thomas’s Electric Oil amid long counts of library figures, stock schemes, and old advertisements. It blends medical remedies with financial quagmires and a sparse ledger-like march through 18th and 19th century references. The piece juxtaposes catalog copy and stock market commentary with fleeting notices about ice deliveries and public notices.
Health and alcohol linked in medical discussions
An 19th century article cites remedies like Kidney Wort and Bitters, praising cures for yellow skin and long illnesses. It notes a doctor’s speech on chronic pulmonary disease and alcoholism as a major, often under recognized, cause of health issues.

Which Wine and the temperance argument in Hyugra
Mr Daly of New York City argues for looser excise rules and suggests Christ made wine at Cana, using biblical examples to defend free wine sales. He warns prohibition fuels crime, poverty, and moral decline while urging restraint and focus on preventing crime through law rather than targeting drinkers.

Fig trees and a chaotic ledger of restorative products
Fragmentary notes describe fig trees bearing fruit in Gallioraia in the second year. Amid scattered names and items are references to kidney and urinary remedies, with prices and partnerships such as Allen, Jordan & Co. and Barnes, Garrison & Co. The text also mentions pills for flatulency and a promise of future music, all tied to a disordered ledger and sales by Pope & Billau.
