Arab Spy Outwitted and Arabi Defeat Linked Tale
An Egypt campaign tale recounts Lord Wolseley outwitting an Arab spy who refused to answer questions.

A Mississippi reader notes Ballard's Snow Liniment's effectiveness for growing pains and frostbite. A reprint of Session Laws 1899 1901 is offered for $2.15 by the Secretary of the Territory.
