Study Self Control and Warning From Burns Reflections
A dense medley of moral exhortations urges youth to guard self control and resist temptation. It cites Burns and Hartley Coleridge, notes personal ruin, and uses stark warnings about vice. The piece shifts to brief bios of Prince Michael Hilkoff and Rev Frank W Sandford, then remarks on Mark Tapley III and Don Carlos lineage and uprisings.

Legacy condition avoids tobacco and alcohol for heirs
The heirs of the late George G. Seaton of Rockford Ills must not become cigarette smokers to receive their legacies under his will. He left four nieces and six nephews sums from 100 to 200 dollars with a proviso that if any legatee uses cigarettes or alcohol to excess, that portion shall go to a charity as determined by the executors.
