A Glenwood column laments urban spending and wage inflation drawing youth from rural life. It warns of a looming economic collapse, tighter credit, and food shortages if city excess continues. The piece references Carranza and Mexico, then shifts to a medical ad for Hall’s Catarrh Medicine.
An editorial argues for industrial peace amid rising costs and labor conflict. It warns of continued unrest and a potential economic cataclysm, urging stability through prudent leadership, while promoting athletics as constructive public recreation and a moral safeguard. It ends with a light jab at a merchant’s “silk shirts one-third off” ad.
A vintage ad promotes Hamburg Breast Tea as a safe vegetable remedy for colds and grip. It instructs taking a tablespoon of tea, pouring boiling water, straining, and drinking a teacupful daily, claiming it opens pores, relieves congestion, loosens bowels, and cures colds. It emphasizes inexpensiveness and harmless ingredients.
An old time advertorial touts St Jacobs Liniment as a harmless rheumatism cure. It claims rubbing the product on tender joints relieves pain stiffness and soreness from rheumatic conditions and stops sciatic neuralgia and backache. It urges readers to buy 30 cent bottles and “get free from pains.”
