What you’re looking at

This is primarily an **advertising page** from Judge magazine, not a political cartoon. The main content consists of three advertisements: 1. **Remington Typewriter** (center): A straightforward business machine ad emphasizing leadership and reliability—appeals to office workers. 2. **Grape-Nuts Cereal** (left): A testimonial from a "literary man" claiming the food aids mental clarity and sustained thinking—reflecting early 1900s marketing linking nutrition to brain function, a common claim of the era. 3. **Remon Gems** (lower right): Appears to be jewelry or gemstones advertising mail-order purchases. The small anecdotes ("Thanksgiving Offerings") are light humor pieces typical of Judge's satirical content—gentle social commentary rather than sharp political satire. The opening text discusses "courtship accounting," a humorous concept treating romantic encounters as bookkeeping transactions. The page reflects early 20th-century consumer culture and advertising strategies targeting office workers and intellectual professionals.

showing cost to date, all that is neces- sary to do is to compare the emotional cards with the cost. cards. Here is where the ‘‘Key”’ proves its value. If, for instance, you find under ‘‘Kisses’’ that in the course of a month’s transac- tions these amount to 159, by a simple operation in arithmetic the cost per kiss is found to be $.9096, or practically 91 cents. Thus, putting aside the lover and looking at the thing from a strictly commercial point of view, you have to decide, ‘‘Was it worth it? Do results justify the outlay?’’ Upon your calm and unimpassioned answer to these ques- tions rests the whole value of the system. With the few suggestive examples here given, we confidently leave it to your intelligent good sense to send at once for a set of our cards. They are so simple that any one with a primary edu- ¢ cation can master the whole art and science of courtship accounting inside of fifteen minutes. There is no catch in this. We do not send you a few speci- men cards, with a ‘‘Come on and be stung’’ attachment.

And don't forget A BRAIN WORKER MUST HAVE THE KIND OF FOOD THAT NOURISHES BRAIN. “T am a literary man whose nervous energy is a great part of my stock in trade, and ordinarily I have little pa- tience with breakfast foods and the ex- travagant claims made of them. But I cannot withhold my acknowledgment of the debt that I owe to Grape-Nuts food. “I discovered long ago that the very bulkiness of the ordinary diet was not calculated to give one a clear head, the power of sustained, accurate thinking. I always felt heavy and sluggish in mind as well as body after eating the ordinary meal, which diverted the blood from the brain to the digestive appara- tus. “T tried foods easy of digestion, but found them usually deficient in nutri- ment. I experimented with many breakfast foods, and they, too, proved unsatisfactory, till I reached Grape- Nuts. And then the problem was solved. “‘Grape-Nuts agreed with me perfectly from the beginning, satisfying my hun- ger and supplying the nutriment that so many other prepared foods lack. “T had not been using it very long be- fore I found that I was turning out an unusual quantity and quality of work. Continued use has demonstrated to my entire satisfaction that Grape-Nuts food contains the elements needed by the brain and nervous system of the hard- working public writer.” Name given by Postum Co., Battle Creek, Mich. “There’s a reason,’’ and it is ex- plained in the little book, ‘‘The Road to Wellville,”’ in packages.
