Parson Frivters and Oyster Stew Lessons

A miscellany piece notes a father admonishing a son not to stuff food and recalls Cromwell’s restraint. It recalls parsnip cakes, Marsupial-like recipes, and a San Francisco contract for Chinese workers. It also covers Iowa livestock values, a Cincinnati death from neglect, college gender jests, and Vanderbilt anecdotes in a brisk, era tone.
