What you’re looking at

This page is primarily **advertising and filler content** from Judge, a satirical weekly. The main text feature is "Mr. Tellit on Entertaining Royalty" by W.D. Nesbit—a humorous piece about how to properly greet Prince Henry (likely Prince Henry of Prussia, who visited America around 1902). The joke: Mr. Tellit dismisses newspaper advice on pronouncing the German greeting "Hoch" as absurd fussiness. He mocks the public's obsequious excitement over the royal visit, sarcastically comparing people who believe everything in papers to those needing "straightjackets" and likening the Prince to an overhyped "long-haired piano-pounder" rather than royalty deserving special deference. The satire targets **American newspaper sensationalism and social pretension**—the tendency of publications and the public to manufacture elaborate protocols around foreign dignitaries. The page also includes typical Judge advertisements (whiskey, patent medicine, fashion patterns) and promotional material for a "Caricature" book compilation.
