The Rule of Three and Parlor Jests Amid a City Scene
A collage of cheeky jests and social quips from a late 19th or early 20th century pages, including zingers about parrot feeding, oysters, and “Mary Ellen Chase” heaven, plus light abuse of preachers and a joke about patent medicines. It closes with Ely's Cream Balm praised as a cure for catarrh.
