Summary

"Punch, or the London Charivari, Vol. 98, March 15, 1890" by Various is a witty magazine filled with cartoons, stories, and funny poems that pokes fun at what life was like in England during that time. Inside, you will find sketches, jokes, and a play called "Jack Parker; Or, The Bull who knew his Business," where a young boy named Jack stirs up comical trouble with a bull and a farmer's daughter named Lydia on a farm as a setting. The stories show some mischief while teaching lessons through amusing and humorous chats between the characters, which is just what the magazine was known for doing when commenting on society. Besides the drama piece, there are poems and essays that add to the magazine's funny style, which is a signature element for which Punch has become well known.
