Summer and civic notes from Chicago era verse and history
A 19th century miscellany begins with a lyrical tribute to summer by Fanny Savier, praising nature and community. The piece shifts to a biographical sketch of Carter H. Harrison, Chicago mayor, outlining his career, travels, and political impact. A Buffalo poker anecdote follows, then a string of early 20th century advertisements for medicines, tonics, and remedies, including Johnson’s pills and kidney tonics, interspersed with brief public notices and medical claims.
