What you’re looking at

This is a humor advice column featuring absurdist jokes with punny pseudonyms. Each question contains a play on words in the questioner's name that sets up the joke. Notable examples: - "Ophelia Anckel" asks about bigamy penalties; "Two mothers-in-law" is the humorous answer - "Grace Gravydisch" suspects her husband visiting "Jack" is actually attending "Jack Pot" (gambling) - "E. Normous Nutt" asks about "The Evening Wore On" expression; the answer is "The Close of the Day" - "Rundown Ike" asks about hair tonic; the reply references "Wine of Pepsin" - "Miss Fitt" asks about becoming a popular aesthetic dancer; the advice is to "shiver and shake and look wicked" The humor relies entirely on name puns and double meanings typical of 1920s comedy magazines.
