A Boston Transcript column lampoons common foibles with a long list of social admonitions. It salutes decorum in dress speech and conduct across ages and roles, from women and men to clerics and children, ending with a wry note on a diplomat’s restraint after a sharp exchange.
An 18th century tale recounts Frederick the Great testing a Camenz abbots wit. When asked to grant a favor he jokes about a new second bass singer. The abbot responds with a clever pledge to name the singer Fredricus Secandas, prompting the king to pause and stay silent.
A Chicago reporter recalls a Texas episode where six fares were found in the box while seven rode. A man admitted paying late, joking that his prior legislature status made him suspect, a quip amid a crowd in the transit tale. Also notes on the Duke of Sutherland and a physician’s faulty prescription about a vehicle. Wealth assessments in San Francisco list leaders like James G. Fair and Charles Crocker with multi‑million sums.
