Description summary:
The description will vary based on the current status of the World Qualities.

Bone Market Fluctuations:First Paragraph
It seems skeletons of a particularly advanced decrepitude (that a lesser paper might refer to as 'antiques') are in vogue this week.
It seems buyers are undergoing a mania for the bizarre, the anomalous and the altogether outre this week. No skeleton is too flexible to be unloved.
It seems there's a vogue for the grisly, the gruesome and the grotesque this week. The more fangs the better!
Zoological Mania:Second Paragraph
BirdsBirds and all things that might once have flown are expected to command higher prices this week. One might expect to see sellers at the market wearing feathers in their caps, figuratively or otherwise.
ReptilesAlso this week, the Carpenter's Granddaughter is giving a lecture on reptile evolution. There has been a furore over dinosaur skeletons, some of which have been sold for unseemly prices.
AmphibiansAmphibians are in fashion this week, as the fad for reptiles is now decidedly 'old hat.'
FishStorms at zee have driven more zailors inland than usual. The Bone Market, ever commercially minded, has contrived a vogue for fish.
ArachnidsIt is spider skeletons in vogue this week. The Gazette does not elaborate further. One some matters, silence is the best and only policy.
InsectsInsects are the flavour of the week, the Gazette informs you. The definition, like the skeletons themselves, is decidedly flexible.
