Description

I have my great grandfather's copy from 1900... It is a collection of mostly single paragraph short stories of everyday life's occurrences using sardonic humor.... It is cleverly illustrated by cartoonist F. Opper (Frederick Burr Opper).... Today, those who are weak of heart and humor may be horrified .... Many invite little children and adults to do the rude or the unthinkable though it is interesting to read the language, syntax, and use of capital letters as was the style then.....
