Portraits and marriages in a column of quips
Thackeray valued vanity little and teased it in others. Lawrence painted his portrait after family urging. A guardsman quips about full length portraits being for soldiers, while Thackeray notes the “other end” matters for authors. A Chicago tale recalls a newly divorced woman reuniting with her first husband and lamenting bad luck with marriages.

How a Diamond Cuts Glass
A series of experiments shows a diamond does not slice through glass by cutting away material but by forcing particles apart to form a crack along the intended line. Once started, only a small force is needed to propagate the crack, making the piece break off. A crack depth of about two hundredths of an inch suffices, so applying more force wears the diamond rather than improves cutting.
