The Most Perfect Yet: Essays on Superlatives and Speech
A fragmented essay by Rually Emerson on superlatives, with curiously heard phrases about language, poverty, and elegance in speech. It mentions doctors, diplomats, a village farmer, Olive Logan, Carl Schurz, and Bristle tongues, then shifts to advertisements for Cuticura, Dr Kings New Discovery, bucklen’s arnica, Lydia Pinkham, and electric belts, reflecting a miscellany of modern health cures and social musings.
