An upbeat 1920s style page snippet promotes medical faith and bread pills, hints at home-killed meats from C. S. Humphries & Co, and urges timely deeds. It touts Beechnut Breakfast Bacon at Vanarsdell's, new goods like seeded raisins, figs and dates, and 100 old country hams at Greenwade's.
The piece argues that youth should be encouraged to enjoy social gaiety to ease burdens of study and work, comparing youths to colts and urging older generations to seek more life and relaxation. It emphasizes natural, inexorable demands of nature on energy and morale.
Vanarsdell's showcases crystalized pineapple lemon and orange peel in a new flavor blend. A witty comment follows about painting the town red requiring a nose as the brush and the impossibility of removing paint from the brush.

A Canton Mississippi note from Mrs Lizzig Bassett praises Vino for restoring strength after the grippe. She says at 75 she was weak and feeble but the remedy built up her energy and she now feels active and well. The testimonial comes from Mt Sterling Kentucky Drug Co.
A miscellany of Nabob-like jests and social quips from Snagtown. Tales include a buried jug of licker found while digging sweet potatoes, a deputy chasing a long-standing reward, and humorous notes about trains, preachers, hats, birds nests, and local characters.
