What you’re looking at

This page is **primarily advertising**, not satirical content. The main feature is a large advertisement for the Fisk Rubber Company's "Quality Service Department," which claims to offer tire repair and customer service at branches nationwide. The ad emphasizes Fisk's commitment to quality and customer satisfaction. The page also includes smaller ads for "Man-A-Cea Water" (a patent medicine claiming to eliminate uric acid) and "Rad-Bridge Club Linen Playing Cards." The only editorial content is a brief "From Our Readers" section with letters to the editor, including one about medical legislation and proper numbering systems. **No political cartoons appear on this page.** It represents early 20th-century magazine advertising practices.

More Legislation 1ToR OF LIFE Political doctors and — organized medical societies that have been wor! ing for the past fifty years in the State legislatures to secure monopoly legis- lation that would take away from the individual the right to select the pra’ titioner of his choice in the hour of sickness have now invaded Congress There are, at the present time, six bills before the National legislature, all aiming to secure legislation that will eventually enable the regular medical school, through a department or bureau, to become the conservator of the people’s health. These bills Senate Bill 6049 and House Bills 24549, 24827, 24828, 24875, 24876. Of these bills the Senate bill introduced by Senator Owen is the most vicious, but all the measures look toward establishing a central medical burea which would soon expand into a sinis- ter despotic power under the domina tion of a school that, for fifty years, has been trying to drive out rivals and establish a medical trust or monopoly. The establishment of the proposed bureau or department or any legisla- tion that would lead to the placing of the health of the people in the hands of special interests or a class would be inimical to scientific progress, as it would be an infringement on one of the most sacred rights of the citizen.

It is unique in the tire industry—a natural outcome of the Fisk policy of honest manufacture and solicitation, even after the tires have reached the hands of the consumer. THIS SERVICE DEPARTMENT IS A GREAT CLEARING HOUSE for tire ills, where cases are reviewed and honest recom- mendations made. In each Fisk branch is found a station of this service—a factory in miniature, fitted with every modern convenience for repairing any make of tire. Expert workmen are retained the year round regardless of trade conditions, so that the quality of the service may always be up to the Fisk standard. THIS SERVICE DEPARTMENT is in general charge of a Fisk factory expert, who gravitates from one station to the other, giving advice as to the latest and most approved methods of tire handling. It has brought many a recruit to the compact army of Fisk followers. Courteous and intelligent treatment and expert workmanship have reflected the character of the entire organization, of which the service a part. The result has been another satisfied user of Fisk products. We give the branch addresses below. Visit the one nearest to you. Ask to see the Service Department and judge for yourself.
