What you’re looking at
This page is primarily **advertising**, featuring multiple product and service promotions typical of early 20th-century magazines rather than satirical editorial content. The advertisements include Beeman's Pepsin Gum (claiming to be "the original"), the Hotel Earlington in New York, Evans' Ale, Hunter Whiskey (emphasizing 50 years of popularity), and a press clipping bureau service. The only editorial content comprises three brief humorous stories in the "Stories with Smiles" section—lighthearted anecdotes about Irish characters and workplace situations. These are gentle, folksy humor pieces with no apparent political satire. One story satirizes bureaucratic absurdity: a timekeeper deducts an hour's pay from a night watchman who heroically stopped a burglary, demonstrating rigid rule-following at odds with common sense and justice. The page reflects Judge's mixed format of advertising revenue alongside entertainment content rather than focused satirical commentary.

PEZRER System HE BOSS on a large construction job in western Canada was going over the accounts on pay-day with the new timekeeper. The timekeeper had been there but a week and was anxious to make good. The pay checks were regu- lar enough except one, which showed one hour less than the rest. ‘Look here,’’ said the boss suspi- ciously. ‘‘I thought everybody put in full time last week.”” “*All except Abe Martin, the night watchman,"’ the timekeeper answered. “He was off duty one hour Wednesday night.”” “Man alive!"’ exclaimed the astonished boss. ‘That was the night Abe discov- ered the burglar setting fire to the com- missary building after he had robbed the storekeepe till.

I know,” agreed the timekeeper. “I estimated the loss and figured that it would have run into as much as this job is worth." “And Abe chased the fellow up into the hills,"’ the boss continued. ‘The fellow was desperate and took two oF three shots at Abe. They struggled des- perately before Abe finally overpowered him and forced him back to camp. It was fully an hour before he got him back, too.’” “‘Sure!'’ responded the timekeeper triumphantly. ‘‘I docked him for the time he was gone.”” OF CONSTANTLY _ INCREASING POPULARITY HAVE CROWNED THE INFALLIBLE REPUTATION OF HUNTER a % anwone R SI FISI III IIIS TIFF IIT IIIS bk dh daha dachtadetthtathtadathtatetadatataded FEFFFFETES FEES SOLES VTSCSGSSSSFSSSSTSTSSSOFSSFSS TGF GS VGESTFS VSG GGGSs In answering advertisements please mention JUDGE, It will be appreciated. comicbooks.com
