A collage of humorous quips on nourishment for moths, cheating in church, trust in trades, marriage quirks, policing, debt, subscriptions, and social lines. It includes jokes about Dutchesses, geometry and policemen, mothers scolding, and a joke about editor drunkenness. The tone mimics a late 19th or early 20th century humor column with snippets from exchanges.
