A Boston observer describes a curious absent minded episode in which a businessman, absorbed in work, feels a sudden stomach ache at about 4 PM. He pats his vest and remarks on a vague “gone ness,” joking about a servant for dinner and the strange sensation accompanying his distraction.
The piece describes a German smoker who meticulously prepares to smoke using a case of tools including a cigar clipper and a tiny tobacco box. He collects cigar tips for charity at year end, a practice seen as breeding. An American observer finds the ritual quaint yet signals class distinction.
A fragmentary exchange mentions Epoch and Mrs A I finding a hundred dollar bill, Mrs B asking if the owner was spoiled, and a reply that it was kept in the family. A stray line references coffee markets and a drop in price in a distant locale.
