Robbie and the Cat Question
Notes from Success Magazine recount a boy named Robert who wore his mother thin with questions then earned a bedtime surrender and a chance to ask one more. He asks how far a cat can spit as his mother forgives curiosity and offers a final inquiry. A Scotman's report then describes seals herding salmon into a bay with patient guidance like a collie guiding sheep.

An 19th century advertisement style excerpt touts Dr J F Hammond of Ecleatic Medical College recommending Taylor's Cherokee Remedy of Sweet Gum and Mullein for whooping cough croup or consumption at 250 and 500 price units. It also promotes Spahn's Distemper Cure for horses and dogs with 500,000 bottles sold, plus Detchon's Rheumatism Relief and Paro Ointment for piles and colds with various prices. The piece ends with a pair of wry quotes about optimism and thrift and a Louisville Courier Journal adage.

Louisiana Fishermen Along Mississippi Sound
H C Ryall of New Orleans describes fishing along Mississippi Sound from Bay St. Louis to Biloxi.
