This page is primarily **advertising**, with one small joke cartoon visible. The main cartoon titled "NOT VISIBLE" depicts a woman admiring a man's appearance, asking if he has a pedigree. His response—that he *had* one but had his tail docked as a puppy—is the joke's punchline, implying the man is being treated or compared to a dog. This is a class-based insult common to the era. The page otherwise features advertisements for liqueurs (Pères Chartreux), whiskey (Red Top Rye), and taffy candy. There's also a humorous domestic exchange where a man buys a fancy collar for his dog intending to lose the animal, planning theft rather than abandonment. A substantial article celebrates The Prudential Insurance Company's receipt of an actual rock sample from the Rock of Gibraltar—the company's trademark symbol—shipped from the Mediterranean fortress, emphasizing the company's strength and stability. The remaining content advertises Judge's back issues and related publications.

Rock oF GIBRALTAR ARRIVES AT THE INSURANCE ComPaNy’s HoME OFFICE. ‘Tue Prudential Insurance Company of America, well known for its world-famed trade-mark, ‘‘The Prudential Has the Strength of Gibraltar,’ has just received, at its Home Office, in Newark, N. J., a great slice of the rock from the famous English fortress on the Mediterranean. By arrangement with the American consul at Gibraltar, R. L. Sprague, this rock was quarried from the parent rock and forwarded to America on the North German Lloyd steamer Koenig Albert, with certificate from the admiralty con- trator at Gibraltar to, prove its authen- ticity. The employés of The Prudential have a feeling of sentiment for the Rock of Gib- raltar, the use of which as a trade-mark they feel has been largely instrumental in bringing about, through good adver- tising, increased popularity for The Pru- dential, and a public appreciation of the scope and strength of the company, re- | sulting from its progressive, at the same time conservative, administration. | The Prudential selected Gibraltar as its trade-mark because of the great and renowned strength of that famous for- tress. The rock which came to America is of grayish-white limestone of such an unusually dense and compact mass, and offering such difficulties to the stone- \cutter, that the judgment of The Pru- dential officials in selecting Gibraltar as a trade-mark is well verified, IF not carried by your dealer send ten cents in stamps or money to Huyler’s, 13th St. & Irving PL, New York City, Jus Wait Till I Tell You! ly pidtures and a set of wee Gok iy Sty en bei ‘The pictures are just dear!
