We Discover Peace-Time Uses for the Gas-Mask
caption 1: Experience has
shown that the
mask that defied
‘the Hun gas won't
always save the
fireman who wears
it in a cellar fire

caption 2: The deadliest onion loses half
its terror when he or she who
peels it is properly equipped

caption 3: Engineers in charge of refrigerating
apparatus often face deadly peril
from ammonia fumes as they distill
coolness for us. Perhaps a gas-
mask and an ammonia alarm would
solve the “safety first” problem

caption 4: There's no mili-
tary pomp about
this job, but the
sewer worker
knew the gas
peril long before
the soldier did

caption 5: Chloride of lime
even in barrels
gives off chlorine, |
the gas that first
made the word
gas infamous on
the battlefield

caption 6: Always carry your gas-mask to restaurants and have it at
the “ready”: it may save you from a cheese barrage

caption 7: Perhaps the “whisky breath” hastened prohibition:
we suggest the gas-mask as a remedy until July first
