What you’re looking at

This page from *Judge* contains multiple short humorous pieces typical of early 20th-century satirical magazines, plus advertisements. The visible cartoon/joke at top-left depicts two hunters discussing tipping "keepers" (hunting guides). The humor derives from class distinctions: the first sportsman tips "tuppence" (two pence) per bird killed, while his companion suggests tipping a penny per *missed* bird instead—implying the keeper would prefer easier work. Other jokes address contemporary concerns: women's fashion ("Beauty and Beast" mocks exposed shoulders at dances attracting mosquitoes); geology humor; and warnings about mail fraud. One piece jokes about a building sign advertising "Highest Price Paid for Left-off Wearing Apparel"—implying it might be mistaken for a theater (a euphemism for brothels). The remainder is advertising: waterproof collars, correspondence courses, jewelry, automobiles, and notably Canadian whiskey and beer—products prominently featured. The "Club Cocktails" ad emphasizes accepting "no substitute" for the original bottled drink.
