Brick-Dust: A Remedy For The Blues, And A Something For People To Talk About is a book written by Mark Mills Pomeroy and published in 1882. The book is a collection of humorous essays and anecdotes that aim to provide a remedy for the blues, or feelings of sadness and depression. The author uses witty and satirical language to poke fun at various aspects of society, including politics, religion, and social norms. The title of the book is derived from a common remedy for the blues in the 19th century, which involved rubbing brick dust on one’s face. The author suggests that reading his book can have a similar effect on one’s mood. Overall, Brick-Dust is a lighthearted and entertaining read that offers a glimpse into the humor and social commentary of the late 19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
