A Times style reader Q and A on proper kiss placement by a young man, weighing lips against forehead cheek and hand as kissing grounds. The piece argues lips offer superior inducements, warns against timid hesitation, and ends with a brief note about dating behavior. Also includes multiple mid to late 19th century ads for remedies and health products from Caswell Hazard Co and Allen's.
A Montana correspondent asked the General Land Office in Washington about placer claims. The reply states no limit on the number of claims a qualified person may locate and that eight persons may locate a 160 acre placer claim.

Advertisements tout Parker's ginger tonic Brown's Iron Bitters and Brown's Bronchial Troches as universal health aids. Mrs Winslow's Soothing Syrup is pitched as a safe teething remedy praised by doctors and mothers, sold nationwide at 25 cents per bottle, with no misgivings about safety.
