Every time someone wants a return to the good old days when girls were meek and gentle, remember that people have always said that. It's like how the Ancient Greeks were lamenting their fallen, modern times.
The buxom, fighting, free-living, and generally scandalous ladies of Illustrated Police News (1896-1898)

Ah yes, "The Illustrated Police News", Daily Mail / Express * (or possibly Sunday Sport / National Enquirer) of its day
* Mail & Express are famous notorious for, when at a loose end, publishing Madeline McCann / Lady Diana stories despite their increasing lack of currency.
In much the same way, IPN published nearly 200 Jack the Ripper front-page stories in the four years after those murders ended. Illustrated stories, of course. Also like them, IPN featured many anti-immigrant "here to take your jobs" stories.
IPN got good mileage from murder (mostly horrible, sometimes ghastly, occasionally just shocking), violent or scandalous goings-on (with illustrations to show how violently scandalous) and things to be outraged at (with illustrations to assist in being outraged...)
It was also partial to the adjective “fair”...
...and I was quite surprised that this one missed out on "fair somnambulist".
The captions didn't miss out on much else.
Stuff like these:
Or indeed these:
Has there ever been a compilation of The Best / Worst Of Illustrated Police News?
I'd buy it for the chuckle factor. ;-P
Oh ho HO let's see what villainy is afoot today *opens up the 1891 London Illustrated Police News*

Looks like they each brought a nun to a gunfight. And a gun to a nunfight. That's for saying my habit game is weak, Sister Frederick Maria!
The Illustrated Police News was one of those publications that should have gone on forever.
