What you’re looking at

This page is primarily **advertisements and humorous filler content** rather than political satire. The main text piece, "The Wreck of the Rigsjarik," is a **tall tale poem** about a shipwreck—a common 19th-century humor format. It features exaggerated mishaps (a promoter who forgets to bring a boat, surviving on veal chops, a captain riding a log) told in mock-heroic dialect verse. The remaining content consists of **brief comedic anecdotes** about everyday life: Arctic explorers discussing native food, a wild goose's courage, a wife questioning a husband's job-hunting success. These rely on simple wordplay and domestic humor rather than political commentary. The bulk of the page is **commercial advertising** for products like Packer's Tar Soap, Williams' Shaving Soap, and pianos—typical for Judge magazine, which subsidized its satirical content through paid advertisements. This appears to be a **non-political issue**, focusing instead on general entertainment and advertising revenue.

An artist, traveling in Morocco, hav- ing found it difficult to make pictures of the Arabs there, writes: “I once tried to sketch some Arabs in Algiers; they constantly evaded me, and at last an old Moor—with whom we were on friendly terms, produced by constant bargai for embroidered rugs—spoke to me on the matter like a father, for my good. ‘It is not,’ he said, © that any harm will ensue to those whose picture you make ; it is you yourself will suffer inconven- ience in the next world.

I did this several times, but always with disastrous results. 1 had about made up my mind that coffee was a necessary evil. “ About this time a friend told me that I would find Postum Food Coffee very fine and in many respects away ahead of coffce. So I bought some, anu, making it very carefuny according to the directions, we were delighted to find that he had not exaggerated in the least. From that day to this we have liked it better than the old kind of coffee or anything else in the way of a table drink. “Its use gave me, in a very short time, an increase in strength, clearness of brain and steadiness of nerves ; and sleep, rest- ful and restoring, came back to me. “Tam thankful that we heard of Post- um, and shall be glad to testify at any time to the good it has done me.” Name given by Postum Co., Battle Creek, Mich.
