Proudest Lady of All and Other Diverse Notions
A curious collage of verse on a child's vanity contrasts with scientific notes from London and Paris. The text discusses deaf education through audiphones, a Laigle storm, a margarine detector, gout cures, hiddenite gem discovery, typhoid remnant science, electrical shadows, Gulf Stream heat, and a three foot Lick telescope. It ends with a polemical public letter debating Christianity, church power, and church-state relations, plus a quip about county expenditures for preaching and spectacles.
