Mrs Daffodil wishes all of her readers a happy, healthy, and prosperous New Year. Here are some resolutions for the New Year Girl, 1897:
Mrs Daffodil invites you to join her on the curiously named “Face-book,” where you will find a feast of fashion hints, fads and fancies, and historical anecdotes
You may read about a sentimental succubus, a vengeful seamstress’s ghost, Victorian mourning gone horribly wrong, and, of course, Mrs Daffodil’s efficient tidying up after a distasteful decapitation in A Spot of Bother: Four Macabre Tales.
Male PoV, I’ll be bound! Wonder if a modern male cartoonist would dare publish anything like this …

Certainly not! To-day’s males are uniformly respectful of women and their aspirations.
With all best wishes for a happy new year,
Mrs Daffodil
