What you’re looking at

This page is primarily **advertising and light humor**, not political satire. The content includes: **Short Humorous Anecdotes:** - A joke about "bears" being "squeezed" on the market (stock market reference) - A piece about a man becoming rich through failure - Social commentary on gender roles (women athletes vs. "monkey dude" youth) **The Main Literary Content:** A sentimental poem, "The Milking of the Cow," romanticizing rural farm life with nostalgic imagery of sunset, milk pails, and nature. **Advertisements:** Multiple product ads dominate the page: pianos, cigarettes, bicycles, flour, medical plasters, and collars—typical of Judge's revenue model. **Notable Ad:** A testimonial letter from a German officer endorsing Allcock's Plaster for treating bronchitis, adding credibility through military authority. The page reflects late-19th-century American consumer culture and editorial practice: mixing light humor, sentimental verse, and commercial promotion for a middle-class readership.

The milk-pail used to versify a mild and mellow metre When I used to milk old Brindle in the yard, And the shining milk was sweeter unto me and little Peter Than oriental perfumes of myrrh, frankincense and nard. The sunset flung its banners from the gilded hills about us And the odors of the evening seemed to drop from every boug! There was peace and glad contentment both within us and without us At the sweet melliftuous milking of the cow. ‘And wandering like a memory from the silent past’s abysm, 1 smell the grateful odors of the fragrant evening breeze, ‘And I bend to catch the chrism of the twilight’s glad baptism, And the outstretched benediction of the trees. The glory of the summer night, the magic of the mount- ains, And the tinklings of the twilight on the farm are with me now, But through all the mingling music still I hear those falling fountains, The sweet mellifluous milking of the cow. Still T hear the joyful rhythm of that titillating tinkle, ‘And I smell the grateful odors of the placid per- fumed night— Odors blown from glens a-sprinkle with wild-rose and aperiminkle, And from lakes where lazy lilies loll in languor for the light, Through the valley of the long years that is glimmering behind me I peer down through the vista that connects the then and now, With a youth's audacious’ unconcern a careless boy I find me, At the sweet mellifluous milking of the cow.

When at Stuttgart, Germany, daring the winter 1881-82, I was suffering from a severe attack of Bronchitis, met, at the Hotel Marquardt, Commander Beardslee, of the’ United States Navy. In speaking of my sickness, he remarked: ‘* Doctor, you can cure that chest trouble of yours Autcock’s Porous PLaster." ‘That may be true,” I answered, “but where can I get the plaster?” ‘* Any- where in the civilized world, and surely here in Stuttgart. Whenever I have a cold, I always.use one and find relief.” I sent to the drug-store for the plaster, and it did all that my friend had promised. Ever since then I have used it whenever suffering from a cold, and I have many times prescribed it for patients, The ALLCocK’s PLASTER is the best to be had, and has saved many from severe illness, and undoubtedly, if used promptly, will save many valuable lives. Whenever one has a severe cold they should put on an ALLCOCK's PLASTER as soon as possible. It should be placed across the chest, the upper margin just below the neck ; some using an This is not a patent remedy in the objectionable sense of that term, but a standard preparation of value.
