An old advertorial fragment extols The TWICH A WEEK Republic from St Louis as superior value and upholds it as reliable family news. It advertises a yearly subscription rate and notes distributors and mail options. Also mentions De Witt's Witch Hazel Salve and a quote on education and grammar.
An advertisement touts Morley’s Liver and Kidney Cordial as a cure for kidney and urinary troubles, urging timely use to prevent danger and improve the body’s systems. It notes availability from local agents and C Stoner & Co. Also included are several short vignettes about public figures, tonic sales, and a humorous hotel scene illustrating everyday conversations and a clock misread.
The readable fragment mentions a signature and branding lines from a familiar label. It appears to reference a tobacco or tobacco-adjacent packaging phrase used historically. The text is fragmentary and lacks clear events or entities beyond the tagline.

Also notes a book on success by Jenkins and a testimonial from G A Clawson Howe Ind for Dr Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin. End with a moon joke.

Rev. Orr publicly opposed the mothers of the church saints kissing each other when they meet, citing personal freedom and scriptural questions. The dispute sparked a tense exchange at a local meeting, with Orr defending his stance even as others criticized him.

The column closes with casual endorsements for Dr. King’s New Life Pills and Kodol Dyspepsia Care from Bartlett & Doyle.
