# Tea Spoons This page from Judge magazine (April 5, 1919) presents a domestic humor piece titled "He and She Number" subtitled "Tea Spoons." The illustration shows a man in a suit and woman in a light dress sharing tea together, with the man holding a teapot and the woman a teacup. The cartoon's satire likely plays on gender roles and domestic relationships of the 1919 era. The title "Tea Spoons" suggests wordplay—possibly a pun on "tea spoons" (the utensils) versus social commentary about couples or marital dynamics. The intimate tea-drinking scene appears designed for gentle domestic humor typical of Judge's "He and She" feature series, which regularly lampooned relationships and gender interactions for the magazine's middle-class readership.
