Here's the one from the June 22, 1929 issue of The New Yorker. Note the ubiquitous presence of "The Cat in the Capotain." I'm a bit confused about the pilgrim couple in the background...maybe a reference to the country being founded on "the gun and the bible?"

I suppose, then, we can consider Flit as something like "Pilgrim's Progress"?
And about that cat...
...why must we abide bare-headed felines today?
Obviously the good Doctor foresaw the need to reinforce the wearing of cat chapeaux; this ad merely anticipates The Cat In The Hat by a few decades.
