A fragment from a home scene where a husband struggles to please, failing to follow the Mrs tastes, while recalling father’s skill in cooking and cutting out clothes. The speaker notes his weak cooking and hopes for better, wishing father could visit to see meals.
A frail woman named Barbara Lindsey survives a carriage accident that cripples her, yet her singing talent, fostered by a devoted teacher and later her motherly patrons, lifts her from misery to fame as Eva in public performances. Her husband Edgar recovers from strokes, and Barbara supports them while rising as a celebrated soprano. The piece notes a fashion shift to frock coats and vicuna details reflecting era style.
A fragment discusses parental guidance in civic lessons, warning against deceit with children and stressing the duty of mothers to prepare offspring truthfully. It references avoiding tricks in voting contexts and contrasts wise instruction with manipulation.
The piece surveys green alligator pocketbooks with silver clasps and monograms, suede purses, lace and chiffon fashion details, and then shifts to kitchen how tos for almonds and oysters. It ends with advice on wintering and potting plants, plus a prompt to try growing winter bloomers.
The issue lists wholesale market quotes across provisions, produce, and goods. It catalogs smoked meats, hams, bacon, lard, fresh produce, and staples with price ranges and pack sizes, reflecting a bustling midweek trading scene.
