What you’re looking at

This page from Judge magazine is primarily **advertising with light satirical commentary**—not a political cartoon per se. The satirical pieces include: **"Modern Sermons"** mocks contemporary preachers who discuss trendy social topics (hair-dyeing, proper riding) instead of substantive religious material. The joke: a "truly modern" minister has never preached on "Turn in a Fire Alarm"—suggesting even the most fashion-conscious preacher hasn't reached peak absurdity. **"New York Papers in a Nutshell"** satirizes competing New York newspapers by assigning each a dismissive characterization (Sun = "so-so," Journal = "yel-low," etc.), playing on their reputations for sensationalism and quality variations. **"Little Libels on the Sex"** offers brief, comedic observations about women's behavior—typical period humor about vanity, romance, and social conventions. The remainder consists of advertisements for Evans Ale, Kodak cameras, Angostura Bitters, Club Cocktails, Williams Shaving Stick, Sommer Pianos, and train service—the magazine's revenue source.

MODERN SERMONS, 1 ‘The truly modern preacher Discusses every fad / That comes to public notice, If it be good or bad. He speaks with graceful accent On “* Should Our Hair Le Dyed,” Or tells his congregation “* The Proper Way to Ride.” He wails ** The Curse of Checkers.” Or "Why We Leave the’ Farm"; >: | Tut none has used this topic, } “Turn in a Fire Alarm. Ile talks on ** Modern Writers,” Or ‘Can Our Votes Be Bought,” And sometimes he's just lovely On " Thoughtlessness of Thoug!

During the severe illness of Mrs. McKinley in San Francisco a squad of policemen was stationed on all, the streets leading to the house where she was staying, to prevent the approach of persons having no business there. A dignified | gentleman residing on one of the quarantined Blocks, when on his way home after dinner, approached one of these guardians of the peace whose Milesian extraction was unquestionably stamped upon his face. The policeman stopped him and asked him where he was going. “Home,” replied the gentleman; ‘I live at twenty-two twenty-two Blank Stieet.” ** Four deuces, is it?” said the policeman with a twiakle in his eye, ‘* That's a good hand, 1 lay mine down.
