What you’re looking at
This page is primarily **advertising**, not political satire. It contains four distinct advertisements from the early 20th century: 1. **Forhan's for the Gums** (top left): A dental product warning about pyorrhea (gum disease), using a disturbing close-up photograph of diseased gums to scare readers into buying the dentifrice. 2. **Colton Manor** (middle left): A hotel advertisement for Atlantic City's "newest" establishment. 3. **Moulds for Making Toy Soldiers** (bottom left): A children's craft product ad. 4. **Absorbine Jr.** (right side): A liniment for muscle aches, featuring a grimacing man rubbing his leg. The only satirical content is the brief article **"How I Sold the Garibaldi Macaroni Works,"** which appears to mock aggressive sales tactics using military terminology ("grenades," "go over the top," "like Grant took Richmond"). The narrator uses bombastic war-inspired language to describe selling pasta products—gentle satire of American sales culture.

White Teeth Deceive BECAUSE.. Although their teeth may be flash- ing white, 4 persons out of 5 after forty and thousands younger pay heavy toll to Pyorrhea. This dis- ease of neglect attacks the gums. So as a matter of safety use the dentifrice that cleans teeth white and at the same time helps to firm gums—Forhan’s for the Gums. If used regularly and in time this dentifrice keeps gums alive and healthy. As you know, Pyorrhea seldom attacks healthy gums. See your dentist every six months and start using Forhan’s for the Gums morning and night. Geta tube from your druggist—35¢ and 60c. Formula of R. J. Forhan, D. D. S.

Lippmann, Former Selling Ace for Ohio and Illinois. When Mr. Cuthbert, our genial General Sales Manager, said to me in February, “Lipp, old boy, how are you selling grenades? Are you ready to go over the top inst the Garibaldi people?” I answered with that mod I learned from good old “J. P.” Prescott, “Am I? Say, I'll mop those fellers up tomorrow morn- ing. With the help of our sales manual and a few samples I'll take that outfit like Grant took Richmond !” I found Mr. Garibaldi in front of his spaghetti plant pitching horseshoes with his macaroni model, a sweet young lady named Mabel or Minna. What is this man’s hobby? That was my first thought.
