What you’re looking at

This page is primarily **advertising with some brief satirical commentary** rather than political cartoons. The main content includes: **Satirical items:** - A jab at Col. Thomas Wentworth Higginson for comparing English and American manners unfavorably to America—calling him a "Turveydrop" (a Dickens character representing affected pretension) - A quip about pension recipients living longer than bakers - Medical advertisements disguised as advice about "female complaints" **Advertisements:** The bulk of the page features product ads: Royal Baking Powder (with endorsement from a government chemist), Packer's Tar Soap (for dandruff/baldness), Carl Upmann's cigars, various pianos and sheet music, and Crosse & Blackwell jams. The "Little Women" section appears to be an advertisement for Dr. Pierce's medical remedy rather than commentary on Alcott's novel. **No clear political cartoons** are visible on this page—it reflects Judge's primary function as a commercial publication supporting itself through advertising while providing light satirical commentary.

The Academy is celebrated all over the world as being one of the largest and most perfectly constructed theatres in America. It will hold, comfortably, over four thousand people. Itsacoustic properties have been pronounced by the leading singers of the world the most perfect. In- asmuch as “The Old Homestead” will play at the Academy for a full year, it is not unreasonable that the management of the big’playhouse should be willing to expend such vast sums of money as are being expended on this production.

Govern- ment to analyze the various baking powders of the market, to determine which was the best and most economical for government use. After a careful and thorough examin- ation, he affirms it as his judgment that the Royal is undoubtedly the purest and most reliable baking powder made. Prof. Mott, in his report, says: + “The Royal Baking Powder is absolutely pure, for [ have so found it in many tests made both for that com- pany and the U. S. Government. “*T will go still further and state that, because of the facilities that company have for obtaining perfectly pure cream of tartar, and for other reasons dependent upon the proper proportions of the same, and the method of its preparation, the Royal Baking Powder is undoubtedly the purest and most reliable baking powder offered to the public.
