What you’re looking at
This page is primarily **advertising**, featuring hotel and business promotions from early 20th-century New York City. The small illustrations and jokes are filler material typical of magazines from this era. The central image shows a man in a boat on a river—likely illustrating the "1,000 Island House" resort advertisement below it, promoting a vacation destination in upstate New York's scenic Thousand Islands region. The "Crispettes" section contains period humor: a joke by Interior Secretary Lane about a boy at a party whose pockets are already full of food. The other jokes are mild wordplay—a professor tired of studying the sea, jokes about dentists' "parlors," and a quip about "the four hundred" (the wealthy New York social elite) where someone is "one of the ciphers" (a nobody pretending to belong). These jokes reflect early-20th-century sensibilities about manners, social class, and mild domestic situations. The satirical content is minimal; this is primarily a commercial publication.

Crispettes Improving an Opportunity—They were talking about improving an opportunity the other afternoon, when Secretary of the Interior Lane contributed to the con- versation. ‘‘Makes me think,’’ he smilingly said, “tof a youngster who lives in our town. One afternoon he was invited to a party, where, of course, refreshments were bountifully served. “*Won't you have something more, Willie?’ asked the pretty hostess, toward the close of the feast. ***No, thank you,’ replied Willie, with an expression of great satisfaction. ‘I’m full.’ “«*Well, then,’ smiled the hostess, ‘put some fruit and cakes in your pockets to eat on the way home.’ ““No, thank you,’ came the rather startling response of Willie. ‘They’re full, too.’"’—Pittsburgh Chronicle-Tele- graph.
