What you’re looking at
This page from *Judge* magazine contains several elements: art print advertisements and humor comics/jokes. **Art Prints Section (left):** Judge advertised reproductions of original artworks by artists like Kernan, Enoch Bolles, and J.D. Gleason, priced at 50 cents each. These were marketed as quality prints from engravers' original plates—a common mail-order business for magazines. **Humor Comics/Jokes (right):** The page includes several short satirical pieces mocking everyday life: - A maid's admission that she has no doorbell but relies on complaints from downstairs neighbors - A waiter's joke about chicken croquettes being leftover scraps - A husband's sardonic response to his wife's claim that "a woman's work is never done"—he observes dinner is late anyway - A reference to someone's irresponsible behavior after acquiring a radio tube set These jokes target domestic absurdities and marital dynamics typical of *Judge's* satirical humor aimed at middle-class readers.
