An Atchison man who cannot bear to see suffering sends flowers and candy to a new widow. He plans to break away after she brightens his day, while a fly traps on fly paper as a metaphor for an attempted escape. Also an advertisement touts Wea. Winslow's Soothing Syrup for teething, and Hall's Catarrh Cure pledges $100 for any deafness case cured by the remedy.
