"Punch, or the London Charivari, Volume 101, August 29, 1891" by Various, is a magazine that uses humor to poke fun at life back in the day. Filled with funny pictures, poems, and stories, it shows what people thought about things like buying stuff, rich versus poor, and who they were. One story is about Mr. Higlinson, who made a lot of money selling shoe polish, but everyone made fun of him when he tried to write poems and do good things for others. He got so upset by what people thought that it ended badly for him, showing how hard it can be when everyone is watching you. The magazine also has smaller jokes and poems about new inventions, home life, and what was happening in politics, all told with a funny twist.
