overs Wasting Their Sweetness
in the Garden OF the 400.
Charles S. Coleman, Real Estate, 313
Jackson Street, Boards Minnesota Club
Mr.. Coleman is destined by nature to
be a benedict, he is so well calculated
to make good woman happy. He is
gentle in his manner, and with proper
degree of encouragement would be
tender. His personal appearance is
i such that encouragement would come
l. easy. He is tall, we'll put up and of
look love into his eyes and experience
|, satisfaction at once emotional and
esthetic. and, with the law on her side,
|. could kiss him with degree of pleas
ure proportioned to the intensity
| of her nature. He is exceedingly
/ neat in his attire. His linen
| is faultless, and his dress in every par
tlcular correct. without being foppish.
He abhors wickedness. He is said to
l. have acsually suffered before the femi-
nine revelations of the seashore last
summer. w eneyer his reluctant gaze
| fell upon fair balher he invariably
prayed, $50 Lord, turn away my eyes
lest they behold vanity" and kept on
looking simply to satisfy himself to
what extent Sinfulness can be carried
by Indifferent femininity. He would
not permit his wife'S gown to be cut
decolIete. Further than this, he would
impose Oh her no restraints worth men-
tioning. He would give her no cause
for jealousy, and would never be jeal-
Gus Of her. He would probably take
her abroad when real estate was not
lively enough to prevent. and could we'll
afford the indulgence. He is valued at
100000.
Hon. Greenleaf Clark, Lawyer. so
Gilfllan Block; Rooms 1O2 West Third
Street-Mr. Clark is an altar On which
the most superior woman would grate-
fully be sacrificed. His qualifications
and attainments are of such high order
that his wife's devotion would be ever
tinged with awe. She might indulge to
the full and through all time woman'S
innate weakness for looking up to the
man she loves. He is about fifty years
of age, and so handsome that he would
attract attention on the streets OF either
New York or London. His life is and
has always been remarkably active.
His family and profession are honored
by him, ,and the supreme court bench was
vested with new dignity from his pres
ence there. He has superb practice,
and OWNS large amount of improved
real estate. There is tradition that he
has SWORN to be true forever to the one
woman he loved. This. however, is
neither here nor there in the calcula-
tions of any other, since woman minus
positive hump may marry whom she
will.
0din G. Clay, Real Estate. s and
Globe Building: Rooms Sc Park Place
Mr. Clay is the embodiment of dignity.
He is true gentleman of the Southern
Of Henry Clay. He is tall, handsome
and serious mind. His habits are ir-
reproachable; or if they have fault, it
is on the side of their hyper-purity
He is,highly educated, and his tastes are
refined. He is not fond of joke, and
seldom sees one, due probably to the
fact that he Is lost in sentiment. -Four
or five wealthy girls are either pursuing
him. or being pursued by hin-no one
can determine which is the true state
of affairs. In any event, he is too
steady to marry more than one OF them,
He is building handsome house at
South Park, which may indicate that
the one is soon TO be determined upon.
Whichever, or whoever she may prove,
she will be III luck. The only possible
objection woman could have to him
would lie in the rather sepulchral tone
his devotion would assume.
"a Alexander NJ. Drake, Private Secre-
tary to +. f. Drake, Boards 500 Lafay-
cite Avenue; Telephone Call, 370-2-
Mr.. Drake ranks many degrees above
the average man. He was the best
arithmetician in his college, and his
mathematical ability serves bin well
in keeping his accounts with
the world balanced in his favor.
He is a graceful dancer. talks
well works well, thinks well, dresses
well, sings well, has been sus-
pected of poetry. He is an adept in all
winter sports, and no other man in the
Northwest can drive three horses
abreast as he does. He is decided
brunette, not very tall, and is we'll put
up. His finger tips betray his poetic
tendency. As might be deduced from
the fact that he handles the ribbons
well, he is an excellent Judge of girls.
His selections are always pretty, ami
able, not rich, bright, witty and Of good
family.

National GermanAmerican Bank,
boards at the Portland; Telephone,
21O-2-Mr DraZ would convert a
Schopenhauer. A morbid young wom-
an with fortune would find in him sal
yation for this world and the next. He
is the picture of good nature
and good living. His cheeks are
as rosy as a girls, and his
eye contentedly sleepy until it rests Oh
dollar-tlen it flashes. He is one of a
few who can tell story without a point
and laugh over it until his every listener
catches the infection of his nierriment.
He was prominent in New York social
