What you’re looking at

This page is primarily **advertising and editorial content** rather than political satire. The main pieces include: - **"Beatitudes"** by Forsyth Smith—a humorous essay blessing various types of writers (those with enthusiasm, fresh ideas, timely work, etc.), satirizing literary pretension. - **"Toilet Power"** and **"One Exception"**—brief humorous pieces about Mennen's Toilet Powder and a story involving the Kaiser and a Japanese diplomat, making light of international diplomacy. The page is dominated by **period advertisements** for underwear, foot powder, farms, hosiery supports, perfume, and diamond cutters—typical early 20th-century commercial content. There is **no significant political cartoon** on this page. The humor is mild and domestic rather than satirical commentary on current events.

For your protection, Mennen's face (the trade- mark of the Meanea Co.) is on the cover of every box of the genuine. All first-class dealers carry it, and will supply it if you insist. The fact that over 11,000,U0 boxes were sold during 19C4 is evidence of the continuing public approval of Mennen’s, One Exception. HE Budapest Pester Lloyd has a story to the effect that the Kaiser, during a recent imperial reception, said to a Japanese diplo- mat: My congratulations, sir. You have now ecome the heroes of the day. But do not for- get that you have learned what you know from the Germans.” To this the diplomat replied: “Your Majesty, we shall never forget that we have learned everything from the C to fear the Russians.”"—M DIAMOND here are clghty-two millions of propio tn tho United Staten.
