A compact column mixing old anecdote and a Harper's piece on prehistoric Puebloan surgery. It recounts a country school incident where a teacher defuses a defiant pupil and details a carved splinted arm found in a burial chamber, suggesting advanced surgery before metal working.
A hunter misses in a rabbit tale with a live taken in, then the rabbit escapes at a station. A parade of partridges and rabbits ends with the unshot animal bounding away, leaving the hunter ridiculed. Also a water nymph scene in an art gallery features mislabelled figures. The page ends with a patent medicine ad.
