What you’re looking at

This page is primarily **advertising and humor content** rather than political satire. The dominant feature is a large **Nujol advertisement**, endorsed by Harvey W. Wiley (director of the Good Housekeeping Bureau), promoting mineral oil as a constipation remedy. The ad uses the catchphrase "An Ounce of Nujol is Worth a Pound of 'Cure'"—playing on the proverb about prevention. Below are smaller **humorous anecdotes**: one about a woman nearly hit by a car; another about a student confusing Columbus's date (1492) with a telephone number; and a California joke about overpopulation. At the bottom are advertisements for other products (gems, pajamas, a cartooning school). This reflects early 20th-century advertising's heavy presence in magazines and the era's frank discussion of digestive health.

Approved by Harvey W. Wiley Director of Good House- keeping Bureau of Foods, San- {tation and Health An Ounce of NUJOL is Worth A Pound of “Cure” Use NUJOL to PREVENT constipation LITTLE care about eating, a moderate amount of exercise, and the use of Nujol as an internal lubricant to counteract any tendency to costiveness will keep most people from constipation. Nujol relieves constipation without upsetting the digestive proce: or forming a habit. It acts in effect as a mechanical lubricant, softening the contents of the intestines and so encouraging normal, healthy bowel movements. Most druggists carry Nujol, which is sold only in pint bottles packed in cartons bearing the Nujol trademark. If your druggist does not carry Nujol, we will send you a pint bottle prepaid to any point in the United States on receipt of 75 cents—money order or stamps.
