 It would take volume to mention them all--so why try?
 However, we cant leave out:
 MT. William Mudd Martin, MT. Frank s. Foster, MT. William Ryan, brilliant newspaper man and Racon- teur; MT. Frank Turner, the Ten Thousand Dollar Beauty" as he has been called by more than one of the Gentler Sex; the distinguished looking Mr James R. Randall, MT. Reginald Heber Bannister, the original "Wo- man Hater," and MT. Edward Craw- ford, adored by young and old-has there been a girl in Birmingham for the past few years who hasn't at some time treasured bit of senti- ment for him?
 And Mr. Horace Johnson, a perfect Beau Brummel in manner and in dress; MT. Frank s. White, Jr., whom all the ladies love, and the dashing Mir. A. H. Carpenter.
 No list would be complete without these Bachelors.
 There would be great disappoint- ment in the ranks if "golfy' MT. Arch Henderson, "wily" MT. Gus Camp, Mir w. P. Ballard, the irresistible Mr. Thomas w. Watson and Mr. Harry Shorter were left out, for there are some girls I know who still have hopes as far as these "charmers" are concerned.
 Mir. Wilson R. Brown, MT. Chase Perkins, MT. John s. Leedy, Mir. Will liam P. Ward, MT. John Kimball, Mir. John Dabney, Mr. Martin Lide, Mr David B. Grace, handsome MT. Zeb Rudolph, Dr. D. F.

Good and Bad Furniture

George Leiand Hunter in Country Life

 The line between good ornament and bad ornament is the line between beau ty and ugliness.
 The only good furniture is that which Is both beautiful and useful

sit, how your photograph is going to look!
 So get busy, girls, and see if your charms won't work on this Apollo "naris!"
 We have with us today another Bachelor, charming, clever, ambitious and prosperous.
 Let me present MT. George B. Ward, the City Beautiful" Mayor, whom Birmingham delights always to honor and to praise!
 He is especially recommended to romantic young women who are suf-- ficiently touched with worldliness to appreciate the value of political preferment.
 MT. John H. Barr-than whom there is none more royal--is another Leap Year possibility, who THINKS he is an incorrigible bachelorl
 A banker-a student-a man of af- fairs-girls, surely you are not going to overlook such an opportunity?
 Mir. Barr confidentially told me that he was willing to pay the commis- sion if this story aroused any inter- est about him, which eventually re- solved itself into matrimony--so will the young ladies who are impressed" please come early and avoid the rush?
 MT. L. B. Musgrove of Jasper Birmingham-and New York--is an eligible that cannot afford to be missed.

 Mir. Morris w. Bush is one of the youngest Bachelors in the galaxy in fact, I am not sure whether he ought to be called a Bachelor--for there's lots of hope for hinl--no mis- take about it.

wouldn't ask "her" to give it up, and stay at home-but I don't believe you can get him, although you might make the effort, if you are very am bitiousl
 Honestly, girls, don't you think they are worth trying for?
 Four years ago you were probably too young to take notice" and four years hence but why talk of dread ful thinks like Host opportunities" baffled hope" and wrinkles?
 There's nothing like that in this story!
 This is the golden chance, but wo- men are not wise in the way of court ship and proposals--not from the courting and proposing point of view.
 But that is the Second Lesson.o
 The First" is like the old recipe in the old, old Cook Books.
 First catch your Hare!"
 During Leap Year
 First catch your man!"
 No, that isn't the way.
 First "pick out your man, then, ac- cording to Mir. Thackery, Miss Laura Jean Libbey and our best Love Ex- perts," the rest is easy.
 The Bachelors are thick and fast no, I don't mean that!

can HARDLY pull 'em through the second summer.
 If like Mr. Henry James, the ruling passion of your life is a destestation of the Amateur--the innate prefer ence of the represented subject over the REAL one--then the Widower is the man you are looking for+--because with Widowers it's no "Amateur" af- fair-they've "been there" before, and know how to "court"-and how to re- spond when "courted."
 Pay your money and take your choice"--but whatever you do, you've got to hurry, because there's only one month left in which you CAN have your choice, and Cupid sooner or later becomes bewildered.
 Not all the quartets of years that have come and gone since his wings first sprouted, and he first bent his bow, and aimed at the~ heart of a woman, have accustomed this little fellow to the topsy-turvy condition of Leap Year.
 It has been bewildering year for the man, too, for no matter what the Suffragists say, nor how strong the Feminist Movement" grows, the fact remains that man is the progressive sex.
 MT. G. Bernard Shaw to the con- trary notwithstanding, the average man does the "courting" and "propos- ing" and it is he who generally pre- sents the favors at the Cotilloni Except during LEAP YEARi
 But strong, proud creature, who owns the earth for three years at a time, surely cannot begrudge the "pretty dearso one out of every four! So- Never mind the men; just let them be wary if they can, and be won, if they can't!
 believe it was the brilliant journal ist, Mir. Roy McCardali of New York, who asked the facetious question. d short time ago:
 Do Married Men make the best Husbands?"
 We'll, of course, it's, up to the Mar ried Ladies to answer that question, but really, there are lots of Bachelors who, if they only had the chance, might prove that THEY would make very acceptable Husbands.
 In fact, "1912 Models, Pm sure they'd prove, at any rate, they ought to be given the opportunity.
 There's no denying it "The game is worth the candle" if there is any thing at all in Leap Year supersti- tions.
 Miss Birmingham" however, has some contrary notions and one ques- ton that she is no doubt persistently asking is, whether the stock" is dam aged in any way or shop worn.'
 Furthermore, she is inquiring if this is a Bargain Sale," and if the prices are really Marked Down.
 Such questions may be readily an- swered.
 Lots of them are new goods, and, as the merchants say, there will posi- lively be no reduction made.' In every respect they are the goods from which the ''HUS- BAND" product iS manufactured.
The Birmingham age-herald., 1912-12-01

Of course, the PERFECTED" state, to which it may be brought, de- pends largely upon YOU!
 At this writing it looks passive and possible to a high degree! Captivity as it relates to the Male Human is something that cannot be pierced by prophecy, but it is known to hinge largely upon something to- EAT.
 They might be baited with a- Bon-bon!
 The question, "Why is Bachelor?" has never been successfully answered. Someone has suggested that:
 "Only the grace of God, which sends the rain alike. upon the just and the unjust, indulgently lets him live in world that needs dinner partners and First Aids to Debutantes."
 One thing, however, is certain:
 Men are born bachelors! That is an accident for which they can take no credit to themselves, how ever, many of them remain bachelors through sheer conviction.
 They have resisted all lures-they have conquered all opposition!
 As the conviction diffuses itself more generally, the opposition deepens and intensifies. This is fostered by married men un- doubtedly-by those docktailed foxes who would fain reduce their shrewder fellows to their own condition-but it is inspired by women. + Although women are born maids" just as men are born bachelors" Spinsterhood" is never conviction with them, according to men (if we are. to : believe with the Shavian philosophers)
 Anyway, if man won't, then Leap Year gives the woman the. privilege of suggesting like the "Yaller Gal" did to her duslSier sweetheart:
 "Rastus, I'se mos. skeered n deathi7
 "Whut you skeredtuv, 'oman?s

 MT.

Jack Asbury and Mir. Robert D. Curry-as a most excellent housekeeper and landlord.
 If a Suffragette comes his way and he should happen to fall in love with her-(of course he prefers De- butante-just turning "17"-and there's a big difference between a De- butante and a Suffragette- about 30 years, in fact) why he could stays at home and take care of the house while -L- Dol1c ,vI uo<ocf

 It must be distinctly remembered that MT. Ramsay is not OFFERING himself and he rather coyly declined to state positively whether he would "stand without hitching," during a Leap Year. experience or develop aeroplane characteristics.

 Birmingham bachelors are in a class all to themselves.
 They are not only content to be Mere Bachelors but they must carry out this state of Single Blessedness' to the fullest extent.

 Birmingham is certainly blessed with wonderful "crop' of Bachelors.
 Such oddities in a world of Married Men are not commonly regarded as blessings, which makes the Birming- ham Brand unusually interesting!

 The only thing wrong with him is that he is Bachelor. \ But listen, Angel Faces, during this gLeap Year, you've got.a whole month fo let busy in, consequently the oB- feet of this little story is to ascertain whether the Birmingham Bachelor will entertain a Leap Year proposal or not.
