This is primarily an **advertising page** with one cartoon. The Kemble cartoon titled "Rainless!" (credited to Leslie's Weekly) depicts "Dr. Wilson" advising a businessman to "come back and let me pull these oil out" of his affairs before discussing business—likely a contemporary political figure, though the identity is unclear from the image alone. The page's content is overwhelmingly commercial, featuring ads for watches (Burlington), hotels (Albert, Imperial, Powhatan), and other products. The non-advertising text includes "Friend Stomach," a humorous essay advocating stomach health as friendship, and "En Passant," brief satirical commentary on food adulteration and contemporary absurdities (mixing molasses with sawdust for cattle feed, wooden-leg jokes). The overall tone reflects early 1900s American consumer culture and mild social satire rather than sharp political commentary.

Dr. Wilson: “I think back and let me pw Business, then you ca had better come Drawn for Leslie’s by E. W. KeMBLE Friend Stomach DOCTOR has figured out that half of the trouble in the world comes be- cause we do not treat our stomach as though it was a friend. We agree with the doctor. A stomach is a true friend and will repay you many times over for every little favor that you show it. If you will be kind to your stomach, it will repay you in many ways for your thoughtfulne: A stomach appreciates shown it. Just as sure as you begin to treat your stomach as though it was a member of the family, it is certain to resent it. A stomach cannot be walked on without striking back. To retain the friendship of yours ach, you have only to show it a few ple favors. Do by it as you would ex- pect to be done by, and you will have a lifelong friend that will stand by you in every hour of need, The doctor is right—it pays to meet your stomach half way! every courtesy —Homer Croy. En Passant A firm is now mixing molasses with sawdust and making a food out of it for. cattle. No wonder the cost of living is going up when cattle are beginning to encroach on our morning food supply. The supply of English willow used in making wooden legs is about to run out, but we'll wager that there will be no dearth of the old joke about the knothole breaking out. A man in Tuckahoe, N. Y., was ac- cused of flirting and examined as to his sanity.
