A sweeping column reviews Sunset Cox nickname origins, Louis Ward loan schemes, Ellen Terry drama tales, Rigolo on Chicago growth, Attorney General Garland medical aversion, Henry Hogman’s payback tour, and a Connecticut divorce scandal figure, all with sharp scraps of gossip and social color.
The Chicago Herald notes that in a playful tribute to Concord and Emerson the author muses that pie, not prophecy, fed the eye and mind, guiding vision from infinity to a daylight reckoning. The piece blends literary allusion with whimsy, treating pie as a symbol of inspiration and truth.
A Dickensian lament by a teacher about a cherished school filled with children. He recalls their tender embraces and sunny smiles, reflecting on innocence, faith, and the pull of retirement as autumn ends his tenure. The piece blends memory, moral reflection, and prayer.
Margie, a near 22 author, seeks help for a love story from her maid Susan. Susan enlists Lyman Ashford to pose as a hopeless lover, guiding Margie’s tale. Through daily conversations, Margie falls for Lyman, learns Daisy is a ruse, and discovers her own love story has begun with him.
A reflective discourse distinguishes enthusiasm from fanaticism using vivid metaphors. It likens enthusiasm to a benevolent force driving progress, akin to Rebecca at a well, while contrasting fanaticism with a destructive, reckless demon. The piece employs river imagery to show perception shifting over time.
A speaker compares hidden internal dangers to bots invading a horse butchered by illness. He argues people carry unseen enemies despite outward health, likening busy workers to animals starved by mercantile demands and describing the toll on strong, sensible men who wear themselves down under economic pressure.
A Boston Bunget item recalls a photographer announcing completion as a woman exclaimed she was barely ready, then smiled despite indignation. It contrasts with a reflection that the noblest people find happiness when others share theirs.
A compact assemblage of quips and verse from late 19th and early 20th century papers. It blends jokes on osculation and courtship with short anecdotes about money, luck, and social foibles, ending with a humorous verse about a woman who never smiles and a punchline about her pulled teeth.
A New York Sun note describes numerous male cooking clubs in Philadelphia including the famed State in Schuylkill which celebrated its 152d anniversary. The club reportedly owns an island on the Schuylkill River and requires apprenticeships and unique costumes for members. Also recounted is a Hamilton man who suffers severe egg intolerance, reacting to even small amounts of egg with upset stomach and blistered fingers.
