Sädemed (Sparks) was an Estonian satirical magazine published by Postimees in Tartu between 1905 and 1934.[3]

The magazine was founded by Karl August Hindrey, and its main purpose was to mock Jaan Tõnisson's opponents.[4] The magazine's first publisher and editor was Jaan Tõnisson.[2] The magazine was also published as a supplement to Elu (from October 1907 to August 1908), edited by Anton Jürgenstein.

Sädemed was issued monthly from 1905 to 1915, except for June to September 1907, when it was not published. Instead, Wirmalised was published in August 1907. Sädemed did not appear from 1916 to 1922, appeared monthly from 1923 to 1924, and was issued weekly from 1925 to 1934. From 1932 to 1933, Sädemed was published as an extra page of the newspaper Maamees (1929–1935), and from 1935 to 1940 it appeared on the pages of Postimees once a week below a horizontal divider.
