A satirical note cites Allen's Foot-Base as a remedy for hens nearing end of laying and mocks a tramp who threw powder into a policeman’s eyes. The Herald Lampoon mentions a New South Wales hospital with twenty two legers half white, and 114 isolated since 1883.
The article contrasts the Hedjaz Railway reaching Medina and the 280 mile haul to Mecca with the camel's role on Damascus routes.
