What you’re looking at

This page contains several short humor pieces and advertisements typical of early 20th-century Judge magazine. **The Comic Sketches:** Three brief jokes appear on the left: - "Passing the Mustard" jokes about courtship, suggesting a prospective groom should worry more about impressing the mother-in-law than proving his love - "Corrected" satirizes a man sniffing air, revealing he's actually searching for a motor garage (not enjoying "pure ozone") - Additional jokes mock escutcheons, fishing, political campaign tactics, and photography **The Schlitz Advertisement:** The large right-side ad argues that good intentions alone aren't enough in beer production. It emphasizes that Schlitz's brown bottles protect beer from light decay that causes "skunky taste," positioning the brown bottle as a superior protection feature over competitors' light bottles. **The Whittier Inn Advertisement:** Below is a resort hotel advertisement for Sea Gate, New York Harbor. The humor reflects period concerns: motorcar novelty, class consciousness, and consumer product quality as emerging marketplace issues.
