What you’re looking at

This page is primarily **advertisements and satirical short pieces**, not political cartoons. The main satirical content is titled "WEED-WEARERS"—a series of jokes about widows. The humor trades on Victorian-era assumptions that widows (women in mourning "weeds") quickly remarry or flirt after their husbands' deaths, contradicting their solemn appearance. One joke mocks a rustic girl who adopts pretentious Boston speech to describe fetching milk, leaving a traveling salesman ("drummer") confused and speechless. The "Belated Spring Poem" section appears to continue this theme of romantic misadventure. The remainder consists of period advertisements for bonds, meat extract, bank notes, chocolate, jams, and patent medicines—typical Judge magazine filler. No identifiable political figures or events are referenced on this page. The satire is social commentary about courtship customs and class pretension rather than politics.

It is possible to love your neighbor as yourself if you are a widower and your neighbor is a young and charm- ing widow.—New Orleans Picayune. ‘A writer says, ‘'T always judge of a widow's grief by the shape of her cap.” Um—yes; especially if she has “set her cap" again.—Norristown Herald, “Where are you going, my pretty little maid?" he softly inquired. " ‘* Should the weather indications con- tinue of an auspicious character, my intended desti- nation is yonder inclosure, where my unswervable de- termination is to extract such an amount of lacteal uid from the distended udder of the gently articulating kine as may be deemed necessary and advisable,” calmly re- plied the rustic girl, who had worked for two weeks in a Boston family. And she passed upon her way, leav- ing a gibbering idiot groveling upon the ground where lately had stood the dandiest drummer in all New York. —Troy Press. A BELATED SPRING POEM. 1% "Twas last spring the young man's fancy lightly turned to thoughts of love ; fas last spring the gentle maiden nestled like a coo- ing dove : He beguiled her. summer divorce papers the registrar are filed with, And this summer you can find out who the men were who smiled with Marshall Wilder. : 1 In the spring the feathered songster in the bosky dingle sings; In the spring the cynic sexton, with sardonic gesture, rings ‘The wedding-bells. In the spring the freshet rushes down the mountain torrent's bed, And this summer ‘*Jon'than’s Continent” read: s very largely ‘Tis Max O'Rell’s. Wanted—Information as to the whereabouts of the tramp who called at a south-side blacksmith-shop, honestly asked for enough to get a drink, was given a quarter, subsequently returned with the change—fif- teen cents—and disappeared, It is desired to learn the man’s name and inscribe it on a leather medal to be pre- sented to him. ‘The good man went away in such a hurry that his name was not secureds But perhaps he had pressing and important business to attend to—pos- sibly had a house or two on the string to rob.—Oil City Blizzard.
