Summary "Lippincott's Magazine of Popular Literature and Science" is a literary magazine published in the late 19th century, specifically in the year 1885. The publication features a variety of articles, essays, and stories that span topics from contemporary culture and science to personal narratives, likely reflecting the interests and societal issues of the time. The opening portion of the magazine introduces a narrative involving a character named Mr. Ketchum, who demonstrates humorous obstinacy by wearing an inappropriate dressing gown on a Sunday morning. As the story unfolds, we learn about the dynamics between Mr. Ketchum and members of his household, including Miss Noel and his wife. It hints at issues of privacy as Mr. Ketchum witnesses the servant, Parsons, opening letters that belong to others, leading to discussions about the boundaries between personal correspondence and the prying nature of servants. The scene sets the foundation for a light-hearted examination of social norms and human behavior within domestic settings, establishing themes of curiosity and social etiquette that likely resonate through the magazine's contents.
