What you’re looking at
This page is primarily **advertisements and notices** rather than political satire. The main cartoon depicts a jester or fool-like figure labeled "PUCK" - the magazine's mascot - advertising cigarettes manufactured by B. Pollak of New York. The left column contains editorial notices about Puck's publications and a "Grand Seaside Concert/Summernight's Festival" event scheduled for August 21, 1879. The rest of the page features commercial advertisements for champagne, beer, furniture, dental services, and other goods typical of late-19th-century New York. The content reflects Puck's dual role as both satirical publication and advertising vehicle for urban merchants and manufacturers of the era.

865 ANOTHER NAPOLEON GONE. Tue Imperialists have sustained another se- vere blow, and the Empress is again bowed down with grief. As will be seen by reference to our telegraphic columns this morning, Napo- Jeon Bonaparte died of dropsy, in the province of Sardis, Mississippi, last Saturday, surrounded by about 3,000 Zulus, To designate him from the other members of the family, his name was usually written with the word colored” follow- ing it. He underwent his “ baptism of blood” » in a cool, stoical manner, in strict keeping with the honor and dignity of the name he bore. When the black cap had been properly ad- justed, he asked for a handkerchief, which, when all was in readiness, he dropped as a sig- nal for the sheriff to let go. The trap dropped —so did the man—and the Bonaparte of his neck was broken with precision and dispatch. —Oil City Derrick. “THE NEW JUDAEA.” “THE PAPAL FARM.” “Hints for the Jews,” “Several Ways of getting to Manhattan Beach.” To meet the demand for the above Cartoons, new Editions of “Puck” Nos. 123 and 125 have been published.

To preserve the teeth and keep them pure and white, to prevent their decay, there is no preparation in the market equal to SOZODONT. To preserve the gums in a natur- ally hard ard healthy condition, there is 20 superior to SOZO- DONT. To purify and sweeten the breath there is no rival to SOZODONT. For a perfect mouth there is no recipe like the use of SOZODONT. Consequently it is no wonder that the populanty of SOZUDONT as a dentifrice has no bounds. All Druggists keep it. German Liederkranz.
