A blend of quick science curiosities notes oxygen’s abundance in rocks oceans and air, mentions high altitude problems without oxygen, observes internal leg bones in pythons, recalls a 19th century custom of mourning, and cites 13 million daily New York City phone calls.

The note mentions Mrs. Ta Ackley in Allentown, Pa, and a court action context. Additional text touches on rubber’s rise as industrial raw material, leather water bags, and ancient Chinese art practices, but these appear as stray inserts.
