What you’re looking at

This page is primarily **advertising and filler content** from Judge magazine, with minimal political satire. The main items are: **"Preferred Goose Flesh"**: A humorous anecdote about a farm worker disappointed by soup at a Christmas feast—he expected goose and stuffing, not "all gravy." The joke plays on working-class expectations and impatience. **Small jokes**: Brief, disconnected humor pieces about marriage, dancing, and college revivals—typical light satirical fare of the era with no deeper political meaning. **Advertisements**: The bulk of the page promotes Apollinaris water, Judge magazine's upcoming "Bohemian Number," and I.W. Harper whiskey. These ads use period marketing language emphasizing purity, quality, and exclusivity. The "Bohemian Number" ad appears noteworthy—it suggests Judge was marketing an issue celebrating bohemian lifestyle/artistic freedom, noting women and children needed money to purchase it (implying adult content). Overall, this is a **typical magazine page blending entertainment, serialized humor, and commercial advertising** rather than pointed political commentary.

ee Preferred Goose Flesh. Farmer Jenkins believed in the good old-fashioned idea of giving all the farm hands and laborers a real good feed at the festive season. So he determined to give them something to remember last year and ordered the feast to start with soup, to, be followed by goose, roast beef, and unlimited supplies of plum pudding. The farm hands duly assembled, and having fasted all day, so as to be in good trim for the Christmas feed, were pre- pared to make the supplies look foolish. Roast goose and beer were all they ex- what's this ’ere?’’ said a dis- sturdy son of toil, when a huge plate of soup was placed before him. ‘‘You've forgotten the goose and stuffin’.
