ft teaches how to make ladies or gentle
men win Ihe devoted affections of as many
of ihe opposite sex as their hearts may desire.
And Ihe plan is simple, yet so captivating
that all may be married irrespective of age,

ged with such ease and delicacy, that detec
tion is impossible.
It teaches how la make love.
It teaches every eye to form a beauty of its

delights of Married Life, that has ever been
issued from the American press. The artifi
cialsocial system, which in so many instan
