What you’re looking at

This page is primarily **advertising**, not satire or political commentary. It contains four commercial advertisements: 1. **Reuter's Soap** - promoting complexion benefits 2. **The Auto-Meter** - a vehicle instrument measuring speed and distance 3. **The Haskell-Match Golf Ball** - highlighting rubber-core ball technology 4. **Artesian Lithia Spring Water** - marketed for health benefits There is one editorial piece: **"I Believe In The Use of Beer"** — a column by Rev. A.W. Stiles defending moderate beer consumption on moral and health grounds, citing clergy support and comparing beer's benefits to European traditions. The cartoon illustration labeled "Between Times" shows two men in period dress with a woman, but lacks clear satirical intent — it appears to be generic social commentary accompanying the beer article. This reflects early 20th-century magazine content mixing advertising with lifestyle journalism.

Revter’s Soap produces a smooth, clear, whole- some complexion. It is an uncom- monly good soap for use where an attractive perfume and complexion medicaments are required. On account of its antiseptic properties it is good for toilet, bath, and nur- sery. At your druggists.

He would also have recommended Pabst Blue Ribbon Beer, as do the doctors, “in preference to all other beers because it is the absolutely clean beer—the beer that is absolutely pure, never touched by human hands and never in contact with any air except steril- ized and filtered air from the time it is brewed till it is poured into your glass.” That is what one well- known doctor said of it. Other doctors say Pabst Blue Ribbon Beer is the cleanest, purest, most wholesome beer brewed and our readers will agree with us that the doctors ought to know. two glasses of beer or light wine, pean people, ‘The beer BETWEEN TIMES Bobbie: ARE YOU GOING TO THE KISSING Caste, TO-NIGHT?
