What you’re looking at

This page is primarily **advertising with some light satirical verses**, rather than political cartoons. The main satirical content includes: 1. **"An Anti-Kissing Appeal"** — A humorous poem mocking the Women's Christian Temperance Union's (WCTU) anti-kissing campaign in New York. The satire ridicules the WCTU's moral crusade by treating kissing with the same gravity as alcohol consumption, suggesting the prohibition movement has become absurdly overreaching. 2. **Aphorisms about women** — Brief sardonic observations ("a homely girl is found at home oftener than her more handsome rival") reflect period attitudes about women's appearance and marriage. 3. **The streetcar anecdote** — A humorous story about a poor man offering his seat to a woman, then awkwardly denying she'd deprive him, plays on class distinctions and gentility. The page is dominated by product advertisements (tar soap, pianos, whisky, cigars), typical of Judge's revenue model. The satire targets the era's reform movements and gender dynamics without deep political engagement.

AN ANTI-KISSING APPEAL. jomen’s Christian temperance Vork has instituted an anticissing crue Sue asan adjunct to its temperance work.) Oh, shun the ruby-tinted lips ‘With piquant pucker pouted. By them your best intents are most Incontinently routed. Beware the coy, uplifted chin, With dimple in the centre, Unless, when ‘tis too late, you'd be A conscience-struck repenter. When blushing cheeks are close to yours Heed not their near location, And manfully conduct yourself, Avoiding osculation. "Tis better to avert your face From all the lovely misses ‘Than to contract the habit of Acquiring varied kisses. No wine has sparkle like unto Out-bubble any bubble.

Waited I alone for thee, Where the roses in the garden Bloomed in beauty, fancy free. As [listened to the zephyrs Quiv'ring through the apple-trees, All at once a plaintive moaning Gave my blood a gentle freeze. In the gloaming, oh, my darling ! Came your father's prize bull-pup ; And I guessed in half a second Just what sort of game was up. Of I bolted like the dickens, With a frenzied kind of sprawl, And it was a neck-or-nothing Race to reach the garden-wall. By that garden-wall, my darling, We engaged in fierce affray, And I very literally Had to tear myself away. What precisely happened, darting. I can scarcely mention here ; But I'll own I walked home backward In the gloaming, oh, my dear! —Prck-me-up. The late Senator Davis left his house on Massachusetts avenue one morning and started to walk to the cars. Suddenly, as if sprung from the ground, a man approached him. He was an old member of Davis's company in the war, and he looked seedy. ‘* Hello, Cush!" he exclaimed. ‘Hello, Bill!” said the senator. “ Where did you come from?” For a few mo- ments the senator and the old soldier chatted together. Finally came the expected ** touch.” “Can you change twenty dollars, Cush?” ask- ed the dilapidated veteran, ** Yes,” answered Davis. ‘Then lend me ten.” Davis laughed. “That is a little too steep,” he said. ‘* Won't you take two dollars and call it square?” _It is hardly necessary to add that Senator Davis parted with his money.— Washington Post.
