heard of the man who will make me
happy. It is yon. No one else but
you. my affinity. It IsTrojUerfurjiist
to think- how bappyvI could 'be with
you in an adorable little cottars built
Just for .two. Jq on,e to bother ,us
nothing- to worry about'Wouldn't we
be happy. -
Maybe we ,coud; hare a little thrift
garden that I" could 'tend, after yon
har gone "oTer' there." Although I
would. If you WQUld let me, follow
you ?o the other side and -'cars for
you there should you be 111 or
wounded.
A great many men have called zae
beautiful several hare asked me to
marry them, but I hae rejected all
their offers because my heart has
not been touched until "now. KOW 1
feel that there is somethisr-betweeea
us. -
Is SkV SpeSarT
This may seem foolish to you. Per
haps you- cannot understand 'how I
have been so moted byta man I
have never seen. Well, neither eanr I.
I jonly know it is so. .. Tou seem to
me,, from'what X have re'ad" about you
in toa papers, to. Dai me emooaiment
of all the fine qusllties. I hjive found
wanting in other men. I shall marry
a, man of. your type or I shall nbt
marry, at" all.
I am rather tall and slender but
not thin. 1 hare fair skin, and -a
lot of color that doesn't coma out. of
a box. My eyes 'are brown,' and I
think they are- brlzht anvhow a let
of people hare told me they, aret My
mouth Is small, and my lips are red
Just as you said they should be. I
have curly hair, and I am Jolly and
laugh, a great deal.
I'm not a gad-about, tut I like to
haye a gopd time I'd be willing to
stay, at .home' with. my. husband as
often aa he wanted me to, but I
would always be rajy to, go about
with him ; to places of amusement.
I love dancing-, and I- am fond of
theaters. I dont know much about
cabarets, but when I went to New
Tork I went to several and thought
th,ey were fine.
Ce sVIII Salt Her.
I'd love-to make a dear- little home
for you, but I am glad you are going
to Keep a cner. I can cook pretty
well, but IV1 rather have some one
else to do it for me when I can af
ford it.
I make most of my own clothes,
because I'm not very rich and can't
afford expensive ones,, 'but I have
good style- and my friends say I al
ways look well dressed. If I could
afford to go to the swell shops I
noutd always wear those-kinds of
tIotb.es. rra telling; you all this be
cause I want you to understand that
I can make the most of a little or
enjoy luxury. Just as things come.
So I'm ready for anything. I want
you and your money, but I think 1
ufent your money less than you, and
If you turn, out to be the sort of chap
I think you are I believe we could
both be happy ever after even If
you lost your fortune. If you are
Interested, write me at north

Dear Sir:
I am a small girl with brown hair
I and blue eyes. I don't know if I
am good jooKtnr or not. everypoay
has to Judge for themselves. I like
music very much I play the piano
well. I will be seventeen on 30th.
this Saturday, so I am going- to look
for a birthday card from you.
O yes I seen where you were look
ing for a wife, but I don't believe
that for I think a oung man would
soon meet a young lady and learn
who she Is and what kind of a girl
she Is before he takes himself a wife.
Well, I ain't going- to tell you wheth
er I cook or not J ain't going to do
no praising myself, for Its bad policy.
God bless you ancj all the boys that
go across the pood. From a little
friend. J ,

Baltimore, Md., March 29.
Mr. Compher:
After reading the article concerning
your search for a bride, I could not
resist the temptation to write to you.
N'ot that I want a. husband (perhaps
I have one), can't say I'm crazy about
ou and your money. That part, I
think. Is a clever trick of yours I
would love to meet you for com
pany's sake, and am anxious to see
the fellow who could not And a girl
without the aid of a rewspaper.
One who ties been In the police
force must be a nice big fellow. I
woti'dn't send you my photo, because
It cheapens a girl to get so personal
w Ith a fellow she hss never met. But
den't be afraid I'm over twenty-one.
When It comes to looks I can safely
say that I will pass a little above
the average, having done considerable
work In the "movies" and also have
been a suit model. .
Here's TVkere lie's Called.
-William Compher:
Popularity is surely with you. but
in my estimation 'tis a poor man who
must advertise for a bride. Cut out
all this bally tommyrot. There is a
saying that In the world two women
exist for eery man, but from the
tone of those letters published In the
paper you are cheating a lot of other
perfectly good men. I think you have
had enough laughs out of the whole
affair. So stop It

Beeler today stated that In mtisar
out a plan for opening goverstaeataa
establishments at hours ranging-froaa
70 o'clock to 8ao o'clock ha had
given careful sttidy to the reUUee"1
of the different places, the number of
employes,-their location as regard

riding- to the public and bring- about
Quick- service and prompt transporta
tion of people to their work. Any die
arrangement of the hours recom
mended by him for the various deaartr
menfs and bureaus would upset the
whole network of his scheme.
Mr. Beeler understands that the day
light saving law has somewhat re ire n
ed the unanimity that might have greet
ed his proposition, but believes that with
in a week the, people of Washington wUl
have readjusted themselves ta the docks
and win not longer puxsle -themselves
over haw they stand as to time.
Objection to the staggered system Js
that Mr. Beeler puts many of the Gov
ernment shops to work from one hour
to a half hour ahead of former hours,
which would be one" and a half to two
hours earlier when considering the new
time. He proposes, for instance, tint
1.050 clerks of the War Risk Insurance
Bureau start to work at 3 o'clock in the
morning and 500 at USD alock. These
clerks now begin at 9 o'clock new time.
8 o'clock old time. Under this plan the
bulk of them would begin, work at S
o'clock new time and 7 o'clock old time.
The Department of tabor, now
opening- at 0 o'clock, would begin at
8 o'clock new time, 7 o'clock old
time.
About 2.100 employes of the bureau '
of engraving- and printing would have
to do some early rising stunts. They
now go to work at 8 o'clock, day
