A quiet dream tale by Hamilton O and Mrs. E.B. P. follows Lenora, a thoughtful child who ponders death and scripture beside graves. An aged man rises from a tomb and proclaims a prodigal will return, prompting forgiveness and redemption as a stranger visits the grave where a stranger weeps.
A reflective poem about brothers leaving home for separate paths yet feeling linked by memories. It recalls voices, shared pasts, and the ache of reunion, with reverent lines on departed loved ones sleeping beneath white sods and the enduring call of home.
Four German scientists at a university enjoy music in a hotel upper room after work. A street violinist named Peter plays below. They toss a coin, call him poor, and joke about his return in a year.
A penniless quartet of students pledge to buy a poor old violinist a house and garden. They tour villages for funds, aided by a nobleman who finally assists, and the deed is deeded to the musician. Years later the house's value soars, but the true reward is faith kept.
A satirical piece condemns a six officer board, four cavalry captains and two colonels, meeting since 1775 to review an issue, likening their inquiry to sitting on a curry comb. It mocks expense, misused funds, and idle travel to examine trivial matters while taxpayers bear the cost.
A fragment recounts an absurd election on a horseshoe nail among cavalry officers, praising military life yet mocking postal ballots. A Detroit Free Press quip ends with a punchline about a meerschaum pipe calmed by a man’s grief over a fragment.
The article quotes M. Charles Blanc on how tissue color shifts with lighting, noting sunlit brilliance versus artificial light. It explains violet loses blue, blues shift, and greens and pinks alter under candle or gaslight, urging examination by varied illumination before choosing fabrics while hinting at broader questions in taste.
