Captain Billy's Whiz Bang #24 — page 50: what you’re looking at

What you’re looking at

This is a humor column from *Whiz Bang*, a satirical magazine. The page contains several unrelated jokes and quips rather than a cohesive cartoon: **"Velvet Joe Says"** offers domestic humor: a tip about tobacco ashes deterring moths, followed by wisecracks about Sousa's Band and Napoleon's height limiting him from becoming a modern policeman. **"And Very Nice, Too!"** presents a joke about distinguishing identical twins by their shared niceness. **"Our friend Deegan"** makes a joke about Irish people and death/heaven—likely ethnic humor typical of early 20th-century American magazines. The final items include a riddle about headaches and brains, and a marital dialogue where a husband claims he won't come home, prompting his wife's sarcastic reply. The humor is lightweight, domestic, and relies on wordplay and stereotype rather than political commentary.
