I want a man who is a flower, with love and affection oozing from all
its petals. Maybe, however, I need a few more years' preparation for
the most solemn of steps--matrimony. I admire a man of good physique,
kind, gallant, conscientious, of good morals as can be expected
nowadays, home-loving, and fond of children.--Application for a
husband from Catherine M. Barnes, trained nurse, aged 40, Indianapolis.

Love is the destiny of us all. At times it seems it is going to
side-track and pass us. Therefore, I ask you to help me to find a
handsome man of 50 or over who has some money and can make more.
I am a young girl of loving disposition; do not powder, except on
special occasions; can cook, and know how to dress on nothing or
little. I want love and fidelity. Do not send me the name of any
traveling men.
I am 39 and dark.--Miss Ella Miller, 837 Spring Garden street,
Philadelphia.

Introduce me to a widow with money who wants a good entertainer and
honest man. I have no funds, but don't tell her that. I play, sing and
recite well.--Adam Werker, Glen Ellyn, Ill.
