A vivid interview with designer Tarry Ghamane reveals a cottage industry of ornate sofa cushions. She discusses yellow satin covers, feather filling, pocketed cushions, and the lure of Union Square inspiration for daily home comforts.
A dramatic bear and two lions battle in rugged terrain ending with the lioness killed and the male badly wounded. The bear, after slaying the lioness, rests and is checked by onlookers who commend the hunter for his part in the encounter.
A garbled assortment of old time jokes and anecdotes including a quip about bloomers and a Talleyrand reply. It also contains a Vienna bread joke with Mrs. Butters Smith, a tale about the Earl of Derby and a collier, plus a Parisian waiter miscommunication and a mistaken money theft line. The disconnected fragments resemble a humorous miscellany from a 19th century column.
