What you’re looking at
This page is primarily **advertising**, not political satire. It features vintage product advertisements from the late 19th/early 20th century, including: **Main Advertisement:** Williams' Shaving Stick dominates the right side, showing a barbershop scene. The ad emphasizes the product's superior soap quality, patented case design, and widespread use (20 million sticks sold by 1893). It's a straightforward commercial pitch with no satirical intent. **Other Ads Include:** - Victor Bicycles, Raleigh Bicycles, Duffy's Pure Malt Whiskey (marketed for medicinal use against colds—a common claim of the era) - Hotels, Earl & Wilson collars, Rae's Lucca Oil - A small joke about a gambler and hotel proprietor (bottom right)—the only humorous content **For Modern Readers:** The most striking element is Duffy's whiskey advertised as medicine "for colds and malaria," reflecting pre-FDA regulation when alcohol was genuinely marketed as therapeutic. This page demonstrates how advertisements funded Judge magazine and reveals period attitudes toward wellness products.

YOU CANNOT AFFORD TO NECLECT A COLD, and you should take the best known preparation for it. Nothing which has ever been discovered has equaled Dufly's Pure Malt Whiskey for counteracting the first approach of any cold, cough or malarial symptoms. It is for sale by druggists and grocers universally, but care should be exercised that none but Duffy's is secured. Send for our illustrated book.
