This page contains mostly **advertisements and short humor pieces**, not political cartoons. The content includes: **Humor Pieces:** - "In Favor of a Trust": A joke about a new doctor and lawyer where the lawyer quips he should accompany the doctor to his first patient—implying the patient will need a will drawn up. The "trust" reference is a pun on business monopolies. - "No Choice of Subjects": A mild anecdote about a professor boring a woman with talk of antiques. - "Abreast of the Times" and "The Truth": Brief jokes about poker and a slow motor car. **Advertisements:** - I.W. Harper Rye whiskey - Sohmer pianos - Sunny Brook whiskey (emphasizing government regulation via the "Green Stamp") - Judge Company's photography reproductions **Notable Context:** The Sunny Brook ad references the **government "Green Stamp" on bonded whiskey**—a regulatory seal verifying age and purity under U.S. supervision, reflecting early 20th-century consumer protection measures. The page is primarily commercial rather than satirical.

A Buffalo physician tells of two young friends in that city who entered simul- taneously upon their respective careers of | physician and lawyer. Late one after-| noon the newly-made medico dashed into the room of his legal friend, exclaiming, “Great luck, old man! Congratulate me! Got a patient at last! On my way to see him now!" Whereupon the legal light-to-be slapped his friend on the back, saying, “Delighted, old chap!" Then, after a short pause, he added, with a sly | grin, “Say, let me go with you? Per- haps he hasn't made his will !"— Zhe Jn- dependent, NO CHOICE OF SUBJECTS. Professor MeGoozte (suddenly check- ing himseif)—« Pardon me, Miss Gene- vieve, for talking so long.
