...Butterfield's father, had, in her girlhood, displayed some talent in the way of religious poetry, and after leaving Pennsylvania, and having both time and money at her disposal, she renewed her communings with the Muses and published the results to her great satisfaction in that hebdomadal sheet which assists at digestion of fish-balls and brown-bread in many a Boston household every Sunday morning...
...German, and 'Upidee' is American. Nor has he secret societies. . . . The students of Paris have no press of their own. College journalism, though not unknown, has proved unsuccessful among them. The most long-lived of these short-lived productions appeared during a few months in 1879. This sheet was entitled Le Quartier Latin: Journal Humoristique, Litteraire et Scientifique, and it promised to be the 'organ of the wants and pleasures of the students.' Tales, madrigals, sonnets, anecdotes and jokes filled its columns; there was scarcely a serious bit of writing in it. Now, the young men with journalistic talent send...

And we are very glad to say that to a very perceptible extent they have been remedied. Though not entirely free from typographical errors, still they now occur but infrequently, and both the form and the matter of the paper show more...
...Well, just sit down on yourself anywhere, and make yourself homely. If you want something to read, you'll find a copy of Watts's Ballads behind the washstand. Or, if you want something of a religious character, you'll find the last number of my little sheet hanging on the chandelier. You'd better take it and read the 'Familiar Conversions.' They'll enthuse you, my boy. They're taking the world by storm. That's only the third one in that number; there are thirty-nine still to come: The conversion of the Goodie and the Poco...
