This page contains **primarily advertisements** with brief satirical humor pieces in the left margin. ## Satirical Content: **"A Society Note"** is a romantic poem about "Belle Summer" who elopes with "rogue Jack," becoming "Mrs. Frost"—a play on seasonal names suggesting their romance bloomed and ended with the seasons. **"Running Risks"** satirizes labor tensions: an older man boasts of working long hours, and a young man warns him such "non-union sentiments" will make him unpopular—reflecting early 20th-century union organizing anxieties. **"Wider Field"** jokes that a lung specialist became a "green-apple specialist," implying he treats digestive ailments caused by eating unripe fruit. **"After a Glass Too Much"** depicts drunk chauffeurs blaming their poor driving on London taxi cabs damaging tires. ## Advertisements: Large Schlitz beer and I.W. Harper whiskey ads emphasize purity and quality—common selling points for beverages in this pre-Prohibition era when such claims were unregulated.

A Society Note. Dear editor, an item; My last, perhaps, this year. I'm keen enough to write ’em, But news is scanty here. Society’s news fountains ‘Are growing very dry; There's nothing in the mountains Bat silence, rocks, and sky. Yet by the sumac torches That on the hillsides dance, Late gossips on the porches Spy out one last romance. The beautiful Belle Summer Who's flirted here since June Has met a bold newcomer, And she'll surrender soon. For though by height or hollow Seclasion she may seek, Rogue Jack is sure to follow And feed upon her cheek. Rose-branded by his kisses, Her spinsterhood is lost. Miss Summer now is ‘‘Mrs."’ Her married name is Frost. —Catholic Times. Running Risks.—‘‘When I was a young man,’’ said Mr. Cumrox, ‘I thought nothing of working twelve or foarteen hours a day.’” “Pather,”’ replied the young man with sporty clothes, “I wish you wouldn’t mention it. Those non-union sentiments are liable to make you unpopular.’’— Washington Star. Wider Field.—‘‘How is your son, the young doctor, making out?"’ “First rate, since he learned to adapt himself to circumstances. He started oat as a lung specialist, but he’s a green-apple specialist just now."’—Town end Country. AFTER A GLASS TOO MUCH.
