This page primarily contains **advertisements and humor columns** rather than political satire. The main content includes: 1. **Resort/Hotel Ads** (Oriental Hotel, Manhattan Beach) - promoting leisure travel to New York seashore destinations 2. **"Be An Artist" Ad** - soliciting comic book aspirants to buy Eugene Zimmerman's instructional book 3. **Tailoring Company Ad** - promising free suits and overcoats (likely a scam) 4. **"Chicken Sand-Witch" Ad** - a restaurant pun where a woman is humorously marketed as a sandwich item, playing on period slang ("bird," "peach") 5. **"Stories with Smiles" Column** - a humorous anecdote about a man's disastrous experience with beekeeping. The joke mocks romantic notions about nature: the beekeeper's manual claimed bees were affectionate creatures that would "nestle up" like kittens, but the man discovers bees are aggressive and he gets stung repeatedly—a satirical critique of unrealistic how-to guides. The page reflects early 20th-century advertising and popular humor rather than political commentary.

It may be for some, but, so far as I am concerned, no year is a good year for the bee business. I tried it once and know what I am talking about. A man sold me about a dozen stands of bees and a book that he claimed would tell me all about how to take care of them. The man who wrote that book was a gol- darned iar. He carried the impression that the bee is naturally a bird of an af- fectionate and confiding nature, and that, when once familiar with its owner, it will nestle up to him and sit in his lap and purr like a tame kitten. He said the way to go about getting the confidence of the bee was to work and handle her gently whenever opportunity offered. I tried to follow out his instructions, and again I remark that he is an infernal liar. A bee will come and sit on you, all right, but it isn’t because she has any notion of being kind and affectionate. “At different times that summer there were over four hundred that came up and sat on me, and I always got right up and went awi If that is the way a bee has of showing its affections, I don't want any of its friendship in mine. Before the summer was over, I got so full of bee poison that it didn’t make any particular difference where a bee stung me. I would begin to swell up all over. Both eyes were shut most of the time. It got so after a while that, when one of those bees saw me coming, it would drop its work and come over and sting me. When a swarm came out of the hive, I never was able to persuade the bees to locate in another of my hives. They would go off into the woods and locate in a hollow tree. Then a bee moth or something got among my old bees and killed all of them. So at the end of the second year I was out the hundred dollars I had paid for the bees in the first place and hada record of having been stung seven hun- dred and fifteen times and didn't get a pound of honey.’’—Kansas City Journal. Good Reason—Mrs. Madison, whose lat- est hobby is the psychology and the eso- teric influence of colors, was deeply grati- fied when her husband admitted, without urging, that there might be something in her theory, after all. **Dawson put me on to it to-day at the farm,”’ Mr. Madison continued. “‘Dawson?"’ queried Mrs. Madison, amazed, for Dawson is the manager of her husband’s stables and unknown among psychologists. Mr. Madison nodded. ‘‘He says the bays eat more than the grays.’’ “Really!’’ It was a humble victory, but Mrs. Madison’s face glowed with triumph. ‘How does Dawson account for it?” “There are ten more bays than grays,” said Mr. Madison.— Youth's Companion, In answering advertisements please mention JUDGE.
