What you’re looking at
This page is primarily **advertisements and light humor**, typical of Judge magazine's satirical content. The main illustrated cartoon—"Club Cocktails"—shows a bartender mixing drinks, with text distinguishing between mediocre and quality cocktails. This reflects Prohibition-era anxieties about maintaining standards during illegal alcohol consumption. The **poems and humorous pieces** satirize social conventions: - "Question" mocks conflicting expectations about women's dress—men demanded modesty while Victorian fashion obscured women's bodies entirely, then complained when fashions changed. - "One on Father" plays on the double meaning of "annakissed" (anarchist/Anna kissed), a pun on contemporary fears about anarchists and servants. - "Apropos of the New Spring Hats" criticizes modern hat fashions as crude compared to earlier Victorian styles. The remaining content comprises **patent medicines and mail-order advertisements** (Absorbine Jr., correspondence schools, jewelry, books on sexuality) typical of early 20th-century magazines—many products later discredited or heavily regulated.

The men all say, ‘‘Be modest, As mother used to be."" But let's turn back a moment And see what we shall see. The skirts they wore were very large, With hoops and things insid How could you tell, my gentlemen— Ahem !—what they might hide? Maybe a round, plump figure Or one—mayhap—all corners; Many came blithely to the feast But stayed—alas!—as mourners. And when the skirts were narrower, A man might be discree: And know just what he coud expect— A woman cannot cheat! Still man just laughs and say surd!"" And leaves poor woman gu I wonder if he'd be more pleased If woman did less dressing. We've tried skirts large, we've tried skirts small; Now what are we to do? Just hang our clothes upon the wall And wear a smile or two? We only dress to please the men And lead them on to woo; We'll do away with hem and stay, If just a smile will do!—Betle Vaughn.

One on Father “*Mamma, what is an annakissed?"’ asked little Eleanor. “*You mean anarchist, dearie,”’ replied mamma. ‘‘An anarchist is one of those naughty persons who make bombs that kill innocent people.’” “*And is that what Anna is?’’ persisted little Eleanor. “Why, no, dearie! Anna is just our maid. What put such silly notions into your head?"’ asked the doting mother. “*Well, I heard papa say to Anna last night, after he had kissed her in the hall, ‘Now you're my little Annakissed !’"* Apropos of the New Spring Hats HERE was a time when women bought Poetic things in bonnets. For church wear, epic forms were sought; For street, rondeaus and sonnets. But now their taste could not be worse; On burlesque forms they fix. The new spring styles are ragtime verse Or tricky limericks! = —Harvey Peake.
