Description: 
From the exhibition, With a Wink and a Nod: Cartoonists of the Gilded Age (October 13, 2015 - January 3, 2016). Private collection, published in Puck, December 4, 1895. The cartoon caption read: "Mrs. O'Dowd--Arrah, in Oirland poor people can kape a pig to help pay the rint, but phwut can ye do in this country? Mrs. McShane (who does so)--Sure, ye can kape a bordher!" Puck often portrayed Irish immigrants as stock comic characters, especially older Irish women, who were portrayed as gossipy and brash. Here the "humor" is equating pigs with rooming house boarders. (Source: Flagler Museum [website]; https://www.flaglermuseum.us/)
