A column of light humorous vignettes recounts a dining room waiter with a misdelivered chop, a vegetarian shopper scolding a bull, a bricklayer’s retaliation, a comically named Mother’s Guide, and a shipboard marriage proposal, all delivered in a breezy period tone with quick punchlines and gentle irony.
A humorous scene follows an orator’s speech as a boy recalls “nice things” seen at a museum. The boy remembers many items were labeled Do Not Touch.
