In this six panel comic strip, a man who wants to open a “pickle factory” seeks legal advice from “Mister Windbag,” a lawyer, who speaks a lot of nonsense, then charges the man $500. The man tells his wife that they will “have to go easy with the eggs and butter for a while. Mr. Windbag, the great lawyer, is handling some legal business for me and his fees are large.”
