What you’re looking at

This page from Judge magazine (undated but appears early 20th century) contains mostly **advertisements and short humorous anecdotes** rather than political cartoons. The left side advertises "Four Great Pictures"—reproductions of Judge cover art by artists Enoch Bolles and James Montgomery Flagg, available for $1.00. The center presents several brief joke pieces titled "Stories with Smiles": comedic tales about Bill the monopolist jealously watching a woman, Scottish soldiers unfamiliar with London taxis, a loud passenger on a trolley, a farm worker given a watch without its chain, and a novelist's observation about Niagara. These are gentle, domestic humor pieces with no clear political reference—just everyday misunderstandings and mild satire of working-class characters and British manners. The right side advertises Crème Yvette sherbet and other products (sex education books, patent services, a press-clipping bureau). This is primarily a **commercial page** rather than satirical political content.

Judge Art Print Department 225 Fifth Avenue, New York Stories with Smiles Bill, the Monopolist—Bill Smith went off to the seaside for a week or two, and on his return took Sam Jones to task severely. “Look here, "he said, “I und that while I was ay you took advantage of my absence to hang round Mabel Green nearly every night.” “No, Bill,” said Sam, ‘‘you’re mistaken. It’s her sister, Sallie Green, that I've been hangin’ round. “Well,” said Bill, “that makes no differ- ence. I got my cye on both them girls.” ~London Opinion. Positive Proof—Two Scottish soldiers on their way to France passed through London recently. It was their first experi- ence of the “big village,” and they were naturally keeping their eyes open. Their watchfulness was, however, not sharp enough to avoid a taxi in the vicinity of Victoria Station, and one of them got knocked over. As he picked himself up, none the worse , his mate grow “Mebbe y 's busier than Kirkintilloch noo.” Sounded Similar—All kinds of rowdies on street cars are obnoxious, but the one who intruded on the quiet of an east-bound interurban a few evenings since was worse than the average. This undesirable citizen, who occupied a rear seat, first attracted the attention by yelling at the top of his vo “Whasamassereverbodyiniscar! he bawled. A timid little lady fainted. “Whoopee-I-doncar-if-I_nevergohome,” he screamed again. This time two babies began to cry “Imabadmanaswhatlam!” Everybody began to tremble. Finaily a woman who sat near the middle of the car spied a policeman in one of the front seats. Making her way to the officer she tapped him on the shoulder. “Why don’t you do something to that dreadful man?” she demanded. “What dreadful man?” “The rowdy who has been causing a commotion in the back of the car.”” Rising in his seat the officer said in sur- prise: “Was that a rowdy? Gee! I thought it was the conductor calling off the streets.” —Youngstown Telegram, Rather Awkward—A farm hand saved a train from being wrecked, and at a splendid banquet was presented by the railway com- pany with a gold watch in a red morocco case. The company’s chairman, at the end of an eloquent speech, handed the watch to the heroic farm hand, and waited expectantly to hear the yokel’s thank: The farm hand opened the morocco case, took the watch from its rich satin bed, turned it over and over, and then looked up and said: “And where's the chain?”—London Opinion.
