Summary: "The Philistine: a periodical for peculiar persons (Vol. III, No. 1, June…)" by Elbert Hubbard is a monthly periodical published in the late 19th century. It presents a collection of philosophical essays, poems, and commentary on social issues, with a tone that balances humor and serious critique. The likely topic revolves around the themes of art, culture, and personal development, urging readers to consider the deeper aspects of life and the nature of society. In this particular volume, the content varies from reflections on America's societal needs, critiques of materialism, and the responsibilities of both the rich and the poor. Notable contributions include William James Baker's poem on the dichotomy between wealth and poverty, Clavigera's discourse on the importance of being useful, and several other pieces addressing existential concerns and human experiences. The writing encourages readers to embrace beauty, artistry, and a sense of duty towards self-improvement and community, presented in an eclectic and engaging format meant to provoke thought among its "peculiar persons."
