This page is primarily **advertising**, not political satire or comics. The main content features a **Resinol Soap advertisement** (center-right) with a photograph of a woman's face and neck, promoting the product for clear skin and hair. The ad claims Resinol Ointment helps cleanse complexion and hair naturally. The left column contains an editorial piece titled "Is It Coming?" discussing women's fashion reform, advocating that dress code changes should originate from women themselves. Below that is an advertisement for **Holstein Cows' Milk**, emphasizing state health standards. At the bottom, a brief section called "Modern Inventions" presents an "affinity-finder" device—a humorous gadget supposedly helping people identify potential romantic matches. This appears to be light satirical commentary on courtship technology.

Solomon, who was said to be level-headed, himself a very smart dresser, and over- looked with a quiet smile many of the scanty costumes assumed at times by the seven hundred Indies who made up the principal part of his office force. We understand that Noah, when told by his esteemed wife to let her know at once if the dove brought back news of a bargain sale, made no objection. Job never said a word when his girls wore summer furs and winter pecka- boos, In fact, no man has dared to lift a voice against the practice. The girls have gone on shocking us from time immemorial, and there is no evidence worth considering upon record that base man does not like to be shocked.
