failed. All who are in trouble; all who have been unfortn-
Zate, deceived and,trifled with; all whose fond hopes have
been crushed and blasted by false promises; all who have
bad had luck, fly to her for advice and satisfaction, from
whatever eanse,'fly to her for relief anti comfort. In love
affairs she was never known to fail. She has the secret of
winning the affections of the opposite sex. It is this fact
which induces illiterate pretenders to try to imitate her.—
She shows you the likeness of your future wife, husband,

can show their likeness in reality—which can be testified
