What you’re looking at

This page is primarily **advertising and filler content** from Judge magazine (circa 1914-1915). The main cartoon labeled "Thanksgiving" shows a man carving a turkey labeled "Judge" — a self-promotional visual joke encouraging readers to purchase the Thanksgiving issue as entertaining dinner company. The left side contains cruise advertisements from the Hamburg-American Line (a German shipping company), highlighting luxury ocean travel options. The middle section includes light satirical poetry and prose pieces: "The Cynic" mocks society's obsession with wealth over heroism; "Our Rulers" humorously lists household servants who actually control their employers' lives; other pieces offer gentle domestic humor about real-estate agents, noisy neighbors, and reluctant goodbyes. **No specific political figures or events** are caricatured here. This is typical Judge content: upper-class oriented, satirizing manners and social pretense rather than politics. The ads reflect pre-WWI transatlantic travel culture, before America entered the war in 1917.

HAMBURG- AMERICAN LINE 41-45 Broadway New York The Cynic WHat use to be a hero, Through worry, grief and rout? I'd rather be acoward = * And cut the trouble out. Your brave man holds the spotlight For thirty days, mayhap; Then comes another hero And wipes him off the map. Athletic figures tower Like Ajax on the street, But figures on deposit Are very hard to beat. Let him with mighty muscles With other heroes rank. I'd rather be stoop-shouldered, With money in the bank. —H. 8. Haskins. Our Rolers The cook, who has charge of the de- partment of the interior. The courier, who takes charge of for- eign affairs. The charwoman, who cleans us out of house and home. The coachman, who drives us hither and yon. The janitor, who sometimes ‘‘roasts us"’ and sometimes gives us a ‘‘cold shake.’ The laundress, who often wrings our bosoms. The lady’s maid, who keeps her mis- tress in order, The manservant, who keeps his master in order. The parlor maid, who makes a clean sweep daily. The ‘‘white wings, with our ‘*dust.”” The elevator boy, to whom we owe many of our ups and downs. The chambermaid, who makes the beds we must lie on. The footman, who often lets us in. The waiter, who puts us in our places. The butler, who so largely controls our spirits. The gardener, who often cuts down our supply of asparagus. The chauffeur, who runs the whole machine. —Geo. B. Morewood. A Welcome Change “‘Before you take this house,”’ said the honest real-estate agent, ‘‘I wish to tell you something that is against it.’’ “What's that?’’ asked Hemmandhaw. “It’s right next to a boiler shop.” As he took out his wallet to make the first payment, Hemmandhaw replied, “Oh, that’s all right! The family next to where we now live has a parrot, a phonograph and a pair of twins.’’ who get away From Hate to Love **I do so hate to have you go!’’ She tearful sped her parting guest; But as the train moved off, she smiled, “Lord! how I'll love to get a rest !’’ —Frederick Moxon.
