The Paper Car Wheels And Electric Vision Items
A jumble of 19th century notices and curiosities describes investor Richard Alten and his paper car wheels, along with electric methods for medical and industrial uses. The passages mix poetry, fashion notes, and social commentary, ending with a long plea for child welfare and moral progress in society.

IN THE PAWN SHOP A GIRL AND THE DIAMOND DEAL
A vivid account follows a cold afternoon in a pawn shop where a small girl carries a heavy basket into a grim counter room. The clerk negotiates over items, including irons and a dress, as a young man buys a large diamond with a tale of negotiations and price. The piece links pawn shop life to liquor store profits and ends with two intertwined vignettes of daily urban sharp practice and theater talk.
