An account describes early trogontic life in the stone age with a stegosaur like reptile found near Canon City Colorado in 1885. The animal stood up to a roo like posture with heavy bony armor and four long spines on its tail.
A quotation from James Anthony Froude reflects on history's fixed sense of right and wrong. It contrasts eternal moral law with shifting opinions and notes that justice endures while injustice eventually faces doomsday, even amid revolutions and violence.
A fragment describing Emerson about consistency and a great soul, urging candor and firm language today even if it contradicts yesterday. It references guarding hips and metaphorical cannonball phrases as a warning against weak minds.
In a clipped exchange, Mrs Pennyhub berates her husband with a scolding that she cannot recall. He props the question in, and she retreats, insisting the memory will return with reason, while losing herself in heightened irritation.
The article describes a Queer business in San Vicente where locals wade through waist deep water to catch flies. Peons use large nets and leather bags to harvest endless flies for sun dried bird food. Boxes lined with lids press the insects into six by six by eight inch cubes then dried in the sun.
An excerpt discusses the challenge of obtaining an absolute straight edge and the perceived difficulty in securing one, noting high cost and scarcity of suitable tools.
An astronomical instrument maker said a yard long glass edge with a perfect diesight edge cannot be perfect but could be made within a fraction of a wave length at and would cost about ,000. The buyer rejected when a straight edge variance of one sixty fourth thousandth of an inch mattered.
A survey of earth as a colossal graveyard built of animal shells and chalky limestone. Mountains like the Alps Pyrenees and Himalayas are described as vast rock forms largely composed of microscopic shells and mummulites. Also notes how the tongue reveals fever states and stomach conditions with examples from typhoid scarlet fever and cancer.
A doctor first examines the mouth to assess health as the tongue reflects internal states. The mouth’s mucous membrane reacts to many disorders, and the tongue is a muscular organ wrapped in mucus that serves as a guide to bodily condition.
A quirky Gibraltar note describes a troop of about twenty apes from Africa, protected by authorities, moving seasonally on the Rock and occasionally hurling stones at soldiers. It also traces the origins of the term lobster for English soldiers from Elizabethan times to the Ring of Civil War cuirassiers and later police.
