What you’re looking at

This page is primarily **advertising and humor filler** rather than political satire. The content includes: **Main Content:** - Humorous anecdotes ("He Scared Away the Ghost," "Turtle in the Mail") — brief jokes about a curate who solicits donations to scare away a ghost, and a snapping turtle accidentally mailed through the postal system - A joke contrasting "like" vs. "love" (preferring pie to parents) - A quip about Paraguay having seven women per man, creating a "paradise for men" **Advertising:** The page is dominated by period product ads: I.W. Harper Rye whiskey, Cook's Champagne, Arcadia tobacco mixture, Iver Johnson revolvers, and Surbrug's Arcadia tobacco. **Historical Context:** These items reflect early 1900s consumer culture. The Iver Johnson revolver ad emphasizes it as "Safety Automatic" — noteworthy given evolving firearm safety concerns of that era. The humor is gentle, domestic, and family-friendly — typical of Judge's satirical but not particularly pointed content for this era.

THE SURBRUG CO., New York City HE SCARED AWAY THE GHOST. A zealous young curate went to stay with some friends at a country house. On descending to breakfast each morn- ing he noticed his hostess inquired par- ticularly how he had slept, and seemed relieved, when he said he had passed a very good night. On the last morn- ing his hostess said, “Mr.—, you perhaps noticed how very particular we were in our inquiries every morning as to how you had slept, but the truth is that the room you occupied is said to be haunted, and we were anxious to know if you had seen the ghost.” “The ghost!" repeated the curate thoughtfully, “Oh, yes ; I do remember the first night I was here some fellow came and stood by my bedside.” “Oh!” said the company with great interest, ** and what did you do ?” “I said, * Please, will you give me a subscription for my Sunday school ?” He instantly disappeared and I never saw him again."—Ram's Horn. TURTLE IN THE MAIL. When the last western pouch was brought from the railroad station at Pat- erson and dumped on the distributing table at the post-office a huge snapping turtle walked out of the pouch and seated itself on top of the pile of mail, It then made its way to the stamp department. The turtle had enough stamps on its back to take it to its destination, but the paper containing the address had been lost in transit. Under the rules of the department, the turtle will be sent to the dead-letter office unless the sender can be found, and will forward enough stamps to cover its shipment back, Meanwhile, the carriers’ association has adopted the tur- tle, and, despite the department rules, talks hopefully of being able to relegate the turtle to the soup-pot.— Newark News, Teacher—“ Can you tell me the dif- ference between ‘ like‘ and ‘love’ Small boy—" Yes, ma'am.

PARADISE FOR MEN. In Paraguay the women are in the pro- portion of seven to one sas compared with the men, The consequence is that the men are taken the greatest care of, and everything ‘which is unpleasant or might be risky to the life of a’ man is done by the women. The streets are cleaned, ships are loaded, oxen are driven by them, and it is even said that they have taken part in their country’s wars, acting as substitutes for their men folk.
