A collage of light verse and jokes from various papers. Bits on misfortune described as being “in the soup” and social foibles. Humorous exchanges range from dinner manners to affection and mistaken pride. Notable quips reference laughter at misfortune and a steady stream of small town banter.
A wagon journey between two towns in Kansas becomes a comic ordeal as a man endures a toothache, seeks relief, and finally receives a brutal cure from a fellow traveler.
