A jumble of notices offers closeout stock and Easter goods from a local bookseller. A long feature recounts Bella Savage's life from Garrett County to Chicago, detailing her disappearance, poverty, and emotional reunion with her father before potential death. Also reported is a grim discovery: a skeletal box mailed toward Franklin Wisconsin with a адрес to Dr. Schmidt and Rush Medical College Chicago.
A low price prospect advertises a lock stitch sewing machine at $13 with freight paid by buyer and a one year THE WEEKLY NEWS subscription. It touts light running, durability, simple maintenance, and a stand on castors, likening design to the Singer and promising home use appeal to wives. Subscriptions and bulk deals are detailed for multiple buyers and clubs.
The Baltimore American remarks on Colonel L. Victor Baughman leading Frederick Fire Company at Emmitsburg fire with a notable hat. It mocks claims of cleverness, noting there is little use for a plug. The piece references Dr. Fairney’s blood purifier and liver vigor product, priced at $10.80.
The article outlines heart structure and function, detailing congenital and acquired heart diseases, artery and valve roles, auricles and ventricles, and the septum. It compares the heart to a fire engine and notes practical anecdotes about local fire events and community responses.
The Baltimore Sunday News reports that a radical operation to extirpate the tongue and much of the palate and jaw structures might be attempted but would be unlikely to save the ailing veteran. It would be a brutal, uncertain procedure with a grim post operative outlook, and public opinion favors allowing him to die in peace.
Correspondents note a wave of country walks planned beyond city limits by young ladies and gentlemen. The program aims to combine exercise with fresh air as an alternative to ballroom routines. Enthusiasm grows among social circles, with hopes it becomes a fashionable, healthful trend.
