Donn Piatt in a Sleeping Car and Domestic Sermon
The piece recounts Mrs Albert Rosenthal of Fort Wayne urging wives and mothers to improve home life to curb saloon visits and show dignity. It cites charity beginning at home, critique of fashion and excess, and contrasts with immigrant families seen as steadier. Also includes Donn Piatt’s humorous sleeping car anecdote about berth disputes and a drunken traveler Stebbins, ending with Niagara county apple shipments.
