About this book

Courtship advice sits beside pharmacy advertising in this compact reference book attributed to Joseph Triemens. The introductory pages address customers of a Detroit drug company and promise answers to practical questions that arise in daily life. The social guidance considers engagement announcements, gifts and the expense of entertaining a prospective partner. Its assumptions about men's and women's roles make those pages a record of the expectations presented to its original audience.

The middle excerpt shows how widely the compilation ranges. Rhymed lessons explain grammar and the use of teeth to estimate a horse's age, followed by sayings about bees, riding directions, definitions of happiness and astronomical distances. Readers can examine the mixture of instruction, amusement and commercial promotion that fills the volume. Approached as a historical source, it offers material for studying everyday learning and consumer culture, with its scientific claims understood as statements from its period.
