What you’re looking at

This page is primarily **advertising**, not political satire. It contains multiple hotel and beer advertisements (High Life Beer, the 1,000 Island House, Hotel Grenoble, and P.B. Lager) interspersed with short humorous anecdotes typical of *Judge* magazine's content. The visible comic content includes: - "A Jocose Judge": A courtroom story about a deaf prisoner who can't hear the magistrate's questions, requiring a vegetable-cart-turned-policeman to interpret. The humor relies on the magistrate's exasperated pun about deafness. - "Why She Was Not Thin": An incomplete medical anecdote suggesting a doctor's diet advice backfired humorously. These are light, domestic humor pieces rather than political commentary. The page reflects early-20th-century American magazine format: advertising revenue subsidizing entertainment content.

A Jocose Judge. | The city magistrates of New York are human beings, not mere codifications of | the common law, and many a story of |decidedly human interest, comic or pathetic, comes out of the justice courts of the metropolis. This is one of the | former: A prisoner was arraigned before Mag- | istrate Freschi recently, on a charge of assault and battery. “*What have you got to say for your- self?’’ asked the magistrate. “Hey? What's that?’’ asked the prisoner, his hand curved suggestively behind his ear. “‘What’s your name?’’ shouted the magistrate. “Hey?” “What's your name, and where do you live?”* roared the judge. “Sorry. Can't hear a word,” the prisoner. | At this a police officer, who used to sell early vegetables from a cart before he joined the force, stepped up and put his penetrating voice at the court's serv: ice. Through him the name and address of the accused were learned. Then the magistrate wanted to know his occupation. | “Hey?” asked the prisoner. The policeman came gallantly to the | rescue, and the prisoner said he was a professional song writer. “*Well,’’ said the magistrate, heaving the sigh of laborious duty performed, “I'll give you a title for a new song. ! It is, ‘You May Be Deaf To-night, but Your Hearing Comes To-morrow!’ ”’ And the prisoner, who had not heard a word, bowed gratefully.—Youth’s Companion. Why She Was Not Thin. Dr. Herold, president of the New Jer- sey board of health, tells of a young friend who recently graduated as a phy- sician, One of the young doctor's first | clients was a fat girl. Her fatness | weighed upon her and she wanted to get |rid of some of it. The young doctor drew up a careful diet; she was to eat | dry toast, plain boiled beef, ete., and to return in a month to report reduction. At the end of the month she could hardly get through the doctor’s door- way. He was aghast. ‘‘Did you eat what I told you?"’ he asked. “*Religiously.”” | His brow wrinkled itself. he had an_ inspiration. else?’’ he asked. “Only my ordinary meals. declared Suddenly “Anything ""—Red Hen. of & good cocktail should call for ‘Abbot's Bitters, Mace whe best "aaa | wp SECRETS.
