Gossip and Urban Oddities From An Era
The column notes John Martindale recovering from pneumonia aided by oxygen, explains how pneumonia affects the lungs, and mentions oxygen therapy. It comments on city tree planting at a dollar per tree, Maple predominance in shipments, and a superstition about nail charms over doors misapplied. It sketches Indianapolis hotels run by women, the Roosevelt house near Chrost, and a landlady turning a property profitable. It cites a New York Sun piece on eastern engineers, Tom Wren’s train feat with Mary Anderson, and trends in phonograph parties, a long-term whist player’s tally, and London souvenir knockers. It ends with ads for Brown’s Expectorant and cure claims for coughs.
