This page mixes editorial content with advertisements typical of early 1910s Judge magazine. **Main Editorial Content:** The "Shear Steal" section features humorous poetry satirizing how men derogatorily nickname women ("skirt," "queen," "frail," "doll"). The verses express exasperation with such crude terminology—the humor lies in the contrast between claiming not to want violence while humorously threatening it against men using these terms. A secondary piece, "The Humors of Doctoring," uses wordplay showing how medicine names get corrupted in household speech (chloride of lime becomes "glory divine"), illustrating domestic confusion and malapropisms. Brief comedic anecdotes follow about outspoken wives and car noise. **Advertisements:** The page includes ads for sexology books (marriage advice), war photographer James H. Hare's coverage for Leslie's magazine, Evans Ale, Hotel Puritan, diamonds, gems, leg straighteners, and La Follette's Weekly (a progressive political magazine). The content reflects early 20th-century middle-class concerns: marriage advice, respectability, and progressive politics.

AMES H. HARE, known throughout the world as the greatest of war photog- raphers, sailed Thursday, Aug. 20th, for England, to cover the continental war for LESLIE'S. Mr. Hare was an expert news photographer before he went to cover the Spanish - American war, but it was during that period that he made himself famous. Since then he has photographed every war that has occurred, notably the Russo-Japanese, Balkan and Mexican conflicts. LESLIE'S will publish his pictures exclusively in the United States. LESLIE'S has also arranged for the entire pictorial war serv- ice of the London Daily and Weekly Graphic. This service includes the work of the Graphic’s staff of war artists. s ’ Leslie’s Mlustrated Weekly Newspaper All newsstands, 10c.
