Melodious Snoring and a Soldierly Night Symphony
A humorous reminiscence by Curtis J. Dunham recounts a friend’s nightly snoring described as a symphonic performance. The narrator, an artistic sleeper, recalls shared rooms, a steamboat explosion lore, and vivid midnight visions of Indians, wigwams, and a city bed groaning as the alarm clock ends the act. The piece preserves a old paper tone and local color.

Effects Of Praise In Moral Life
A compact moral essay argues praise does not alter an action’s intrinsic quality yet may influence future deeds. It stresses personal responsibility independent of praise or blame and notes praise or blame affects others’ behavior. The text adds a stray digression on medical training and German city populations in 1880.
