This page is primarily **advertising and literary content** rather than political satire. **Main Contents:** 1. **"Conspicuous Nose Pores"** advertisement for Woodbury's Facial Soap—a beauty product pitch with detailed instructions for reducing enlarged pores. 2. **"Rhymed Reviews"** by Arthur Guiterman reviewing Henry Sydnor Harrison's novel *Angela's Business*. The poem contrasts two female types: Angela (pursuing marriage through charm and physical allure) versus Mary Wing (self-reliant, intellectual). Guiterman playfully suggests both approaches have merit, though he prefers a combination. 3. **Product advertisements** for Smith & Wesson revolvers and Sozodont toothpaste. 4. **A cartoon** at bottom left showing a man and woman with a dog, captioned "I Don't Believe That Dog Likes Me," appearing to be a domestic humor sketch. The page reflects early 20th-century gender attitudes—contrasting "feminine" woman-chasing with "womanly" self-sufficiency—but contains no overt political satire.

Hubby: MY DEAR, IT WILL BE WORSE LUCK IF WE GET CAUGHT IN 4 Conspicuous moSe pores How to reduce Lhem Complexions otherwise flawless are often ruined by conspicuous nose pores. In such cases the small muscular fibres of the nose have become weakened and do not keep the pores closed as they should be. Instead, these pores collect dirt, clog up and become enlarged. To reduce these enlarged pores: Wring a cloth from very hot water, lather it with Woodbury’s Facial Soap, then hold it to your face. When the heat has expanded the pores, rub in very gently a fresh lather of Woodbury’s, Repeat this hot water and lather application several times, stopping at once if your nose feels sensitive. Then finish by rubbing the nose for a few minutes with a lump of ice. Woodbury’s Facial Soap cleanses the pores. This treatment with it strength: ens the muscular fibres so they can con- tract properly. But do not expect to change in a week a condition resulting from years of neglect, Use this treatment persistently. It will gradually reduce the enlarged pores until they are inconspicuous. ‘A asc cake of Woodbury's Facial Soan is ‘sufficient for a_month or six weeks of this treatment. Get a cake today.

Jergens Co., 1 DON'T BELIEVE THAT DOG LIKES ME The Pup: 1 Rhymed Reviews Angela’s Business (By Henry Sydnor Harrison, Hough- ton Mifflin Co.) ISS ANGELA'S intelligence Was far too weak for suffra- gettin; Her business was, in consequence, The low pursuit of hushand-getting. This maiden, lacking other aims Beyond a ring marked eighteen karat, Pursued our analyst of dames, The tutor-author, C. K. Garrott. Conversely, Mistress Mary Wing, The too, too self-reliant teacher, Refused to class the wedding-ring As Womanhood's sublimest feature. Her Business wasn't charming men With dainty, feminine devices; She did her task with tongue and pen And made a lot of Sacrifices, Now, cautious Garrott dodged and fled, Eluding Angela, the charmer, Who captured Donald Wing, instead, By wiles that shouldn't fool a farmer, While Mary Wing, whose fine reserve Might well repel a warmer suitor, Displayed a will to love and serve That wholly took our author-tutor. The Angelas, who strive to win By soft allure the sterner gender, You see, are merely Feminine,— The Marys, Womanly and tender. My taste inclines to both combined ; But, fortunately, judgment varies; Some like the Angelas, I find, While other men prefer the Marys. Arthur Guiterman. CAMPREDCLOUD Sth. Young Hoya. All Sports.
