Both methods work. The victims

F. Verrault—or Mrs. Helen Hamilton—
held In court to answer the charge of
various men who assert that they had
wooed her with costly Jewels and ex
pensive feeds, and cold, hard cash, un
der the promise to marry, but that she
had failed to make good.
"I really," she said, "consider myself
a public benefactor for having taken
In these men, who seek to get ac
quainted with women by means of per
sonals In papers. No man who does
such things Intends any good to the
woman. A man who really wants to
honestly marry a woman does not ad
vertise for a wife, as he would for a
cook. Every one of them Intends to
taka advantage of her In some way
and to get her money, If she has any,

"I never even told McClelland, tho
little Philadelphia grocer, that I had
money. He thought he - saw It, and.
saw himself luxuriating in that house
Instead of selling salt rod nsh, and
he could not give mo enough presents
to make himself eolld. Every man of
them from first to last told me from
the beginning that lie would Just come
and live In my house.
"Of course. It Is not surprising about
the Phtlndolphln man, but what
amused me most was 51 r. Klesler. I
answered his advertisement In The
Herald. He said lie wanted to meet
a rich widow, nr girl, object matri
mony, and he came to hoc me; and he,
too, went down before that opulent
look of mine. He told me he had a
high position In the Mutual Life, and
that he knew all about the different
forms at graft In the Insurance busi
ness and was In the habit at profiting
by It, adding thnt he considered It his
honest duty to help take away some of
this Ill-gotten gain from the grafters.
He Kissed Her Hands.
"He was the worst 'pursuer,' '* said
Mrs. Verruult. "He would spend hours
on his knees, klkslng my hunds and
declaring that If I ever changed ha
would kill himself on my front steps.
He also expressed u perfect willing
ness to come and live In my house,
where he thought we could be very
happy on my 110,000 a year. He said
all Hungarians expected to marry rich
Americans when they come to this
country, and tha reason lie advcrtlsod
was because he did not know how to
get acquainted with n woman with
money.
"He gave me n ring and some money
and a locket to put his picture In.
Goodness, a nmn ought to pay you
for wearing his picture around your
neck, ought ho not? I think IPwould
be worth $60,000 a year to wear Kies-

spending any $2,600 on me at the res

TRY A WANT AD
IN THE GEORGIAN
By Private Leased Wire.
Rome, Italy. Aug. IS.—Oseervatore
Romano prints the text of the pope's
encyclical to the archblehopa and bish
ops of France regarding their future
conduct In view of the enactment of
the laws providing for the separation
of church and state. It says the time
has arrived to Indicate what should be
done to defend and' preserve religion In
France.
The pope counsels against eedltlouf
or violent action and aays that firm
ness will give better result* than vio
lence. United action, he says, can be
learned from those who have Imposed
the stigma of this criminal law upon
the nations.
He urges the bishop* to adopt all
mean* within the law to organise their
forces, assuring them of the papal co
operation, and support.
“Having heretofore condemned thle
hqultlou* law of separation," say* the
pope, “we examined with the greatest
care Its articles to see If thsy permit
ted the organisation of religious life In
France without jeopardising the sacred
principles of the church.
"We decree the law cannot be en-.
forced without a violation of the sacred '
right* or the church. Putting, there-1
fore, aside these association* which
our conscience forbids ua to approve. It
Is opportune to examine If some other
kind of organisation, both legal and
canonical, can avert the threatened
danger* to the church."
Pope Plua aays nothing cause* him
greater agony than the eventualities
menacing the church In 6'rance and
therefore hi hope* to find some other
kind of associations not endangering
divine right*.
"It Is not difficult," he says, "to fore
see the recriminations which the ene
mies of the ohurrh will make against
our present decree. They will seek to
persuade the people that we do not
seek the salvation of the church, but
that the form of the republic of France
Is odious to us. We denounce such in
