"Punch or the London Charivari, Vol. 109, August 17, 1895" by Various is a satirical magazine publication from the late 19th century. This volume of "Punch," known for its humor, commentary, and editorial cartoons, reflects the social and political issues of the time in a light-hearted manner. The topics are varied, touching upon themes relevant to Victorian society including commerce, politics, and the everyday experiences of the English populace. The content of this particular issue includes a modern retelling of the story of the idle and industrious apprentices, presenting the prosperous Mr. Goodchild, who attributes his success to being unexposed to bad literature. It features various humorous vignettes and poems, such as a comical inquiry by Omar Khayyam and a critique on social behavior, as well as reflections on contemporary events like the Cowes Regatta.
