A poem from Harper's Magazine February praising Sarlyy Civile as a calm, beloved figure. It contrasts her gentleness with intimate observations of seasons, nature, and benevolence. Miss J. R. Hudson is cited in the magazine note.
A lyrical fragment portrays affection for Jenny and a beloved girl described as a spring crocus inside a heart kept secret. The speaker contrasts a tender, jealous love with poetic images of beauty, hair, eyes, cheeks, and lips, noting roses bloom in May while winter winds linger and night-dark locks are plucked.
Jean Cryder and Delia Disbrow discuss marriage and writing while Delano, a solitary guest at the Point, confronts Jean on a hidden romance. A boating encounter unfolds with sharp wit and rising tension as social rules and personal ambition collide.
A public health warning traces typhoid fever as a sweeping autumnal scourge affecting all social strata. It links the disease to excremental contamination of drinking water, shares case histories from Germany and New York, and cites Prince Albert's death as part of the debate on poison sources. It urges proper disposal of waste and safer water supplies to prevent epidemics.
