What you’re looking at
This page features **amateur cartoons** submitted by readers to *Judge* magazine's budding artist section. The cartoons showcase simple, domestic humor typical of early 20th-century comic strips: 1. **"Why don't you wait for the horse?"** — A man eagerly pursues a woman while her horse remains behind, suggesting impatience in courtship. 2. **The villain/drug scene** — A melodramatic kidnapper is mocked by an unseen voice ("Voice from the Gods") advising him not to strain himself carrying the unconscious woman, implying she's too heavy. This satirizes overwrought villain tropes in popular entertainment. 3. **Patient/taxicab joke** — A doctor's cure for weakness is taking a taxi instead of walking—absurdist humor about modern conveniences. 4. **"Mr. Jones attends the bawl"** — Unclear without seeing the illustration, but likely plays on "ball" (social event). The page is primarily **advertising** (seasickness remedy, garters, razors, patent services) with amateur cartoons interspersed—characteristic of early *Judge* layout.
