An Irving Batcheller tale at Witherspoon hall features a farmer who explains hill planting by shooting corn with a shotgun, prompting a stunned visitor. The scene shifts to a tale about Fat O’Shaunessy and a dying wish, as Pat humorously answers questions about dying wisely.
A sprawling tale follows George Gormly, a New York merchant prince, who proclaims mayoral ambitions while confronting a web of corruption tied to Gotham Traction. A lover’s past, a confession, and a sensational expose race through press rooms, police, and a grand political collision.
Gormly, worn from campaigning, wakes to a crowded reception in his hotel suite. Hal dane and Eleanor Haldane arrive with news from The Planet and a requested audience, as Gormly hunts for clarity amid rising public pressure and a cryptic note from the press.
In a terse notice from Auck News and Chl WR Daily Nowe, readers are reminded of a photographed scene described as natural as life. The report notes Jones captured a photo so realistic that a mother Reid would not keep it in the house.
Fragmentary text presents a quirky dialogue and stray lines about aging health and a dog metaphor. It includes misread phrases and unclear speakers, with references to stamping feet and a joke about being a single man. The readable parts suggest light reportage or a column excerpt rather than a cohesive event.
A Richmond speaker uses dialect to mock a physician named Doctah Blank 1, claiming he is the genuine bakteriologist. The tale centers on a despairing man with back and head pains who is told by Jim to surrender himself to the doctor as the true bacteriologist of the city.
A suffragette and a respondent clash over women’s roles focusing on home life versus state duties. The exchange touches on gentleness and humanity, with the suffragette recalling a deep scar and answering a question about its origin. The dialogue appears from the Cleveland Plain Dealer context.
A Rogland writer recounts a 20 year struggle with dyspepsia and accompanying giddiness. After reading The Road to Wellville she switched from tea and coffee to Postum, improving digestion, blood health, and vitality. She urges others to try Postum and notes personal outreach to neighbors.
