What you’re looking at
This page consists primarily of **advertising and humor pieces** rather than political cartoons. **Main Content:** The featured item is "A Jill for Jack," a James Montgomery Flagg illustration of an attractive woman in nautical/yachting attire—marketed as a 25-cent print for sailors or those who appreciate pretty women. This reflects early 20th-century pin-up style entertainment. **Humor Pieces:** "Spares: When John Comes Home" uses mock-scientific language (sodium alkali, phosphate, casein, thermic fat, ohms) to describe ordinary cooking—satirizing the era's fascination with chemistry and "scientific" domesticity. Other brief anecdotes mock pretension: a British statesman's false confidence, a Toledo heiress naive about marrying a count for money, and a young man's naive question about why girls close their eyes during kissing. **Advertisements:** Evans' Ale, Judge Art Prints, Hotel Arlington, and publishing services fill the remaining space. The page reflects early 20th-century American humor: genteel, mildly risqué, and preoccupied with social pretension and scientific modernity.

He works hard and nothing ever feazes him. “He wanted recently to push a bill that had little support from his own party. A friend, however, said to him in a warning voice, ‘**But suppose, my boy, this bill should se your party to throw you overboard.’ WwW in that case, old chap,’ he re- plied, ‘I'm quite sure I'd have strength enough to swim across to the other side.’ ’” —St. Louis Globe-Democrat.

I'm sitting on Woman's Home Companion, it.’— She Knew the Count--Mayor Whitlock, of Toledo, was talking about a Toledo heiress who had married a count. “Well, at any rate,’ said he, ‘‘the girl seemed convinced that the count had no unworthy motives. “«Don't you know,’ a friend said to her, some months before the wedding, ‘don’t you know that the count is simply marrying you for your money, so that he can pay his bills?” “**Nonsense!’ she replied. ‘The count never thinks of paying his bills.’ '’—New York Tribune. On the Face of It—The information editor received this letter from a fresh youth: “Kindly tell me why a girl always closes her eyes when a fellow kisses her."” The editor replied: “If you will send us your photograph, we may be able to tell you the reason.”” —Ladies’ Home Journal, Happiest Vacation by taking along a supply of good old Evans’ to open the way to a full enjoyment of all the wh C.
