A poetic comparison of a man who pursues knowledge and a woman who seeks the divine. He maps matter and ages with science while she finds God behind them. Their union yields faith beyond reason, as he grasps form and she opens the gate of Heaven at home and country.
A narrator recalls returning to rural Wisconsin from New York after a failed fortune chase. He reunites with his aged parents, shares a sudden windfall from Chicago, and helps restore the family, paying debts and rebuilding, while a friend in Maine decides to return home. The piece closes with jokes and wry proverbs about home and fate.
A sleepy Massachusetts town with a railroad station story unfolds as a new telegraph operator mistakes a moonlit glow for an approaching train. The station master, puzzled by the apparent headlight, learns the light is merely the moon rising behind the woods. The tale idles into other brief notes on ox stomach contents and a quack cure.
A gingery collection of satirical remarks on politics and morality, noting that most believe they could be statesmen while money guides campaigns and votes get bought. The piece jokes about literacy and urban life, cites the St Gothard tunnel metrics, and mentions Beecham's Pills and early cotton mills in Beverly Massachusetts.
