Summary

** "Punch, or the London Charivari, Volume 99, July 5, 1890" is a witty magazine made by different writers back in the late 1800s, showing off the world through funny pictures and jokes. It makes fun of what was happening in society and politics, like how people acted, what politicians did, and big events in London. This volume has lots of mocking articles and cartoons that tease what's happening, what's normal, and what's going on in politics. They write funny stories about everything from what's weird in the government to problems that might happen in your town, silly jokes about the weather, and how people react to local action. The magazine uses smart words and says things that are the opposite of what they mean to talk about things like the army, health, and even famous operas, all to be funny and make some good points, which is what the magazine is famous for. This volume is like a funny picture of life and feelings in England way back then. **
