STlNgON.Prop NE of the most interesting new.spaper features in the â- world is the personal column of the London Times, chris- tened the "agony" column by Thack- eray. It was never more interesting than at present, H is, perhaps the best of alijiiin'ors of after-war con- ditions in England. Things are to be learned Iherelhat are not to be found in the news columns nor in any other department ot the Times or any other newspaper." With the identity of the advertiser screened from the public, he can lay bare his i-nenuost heart in the firm knowl- edge that his appeal will come to the ittenlion of thousands of people who might help, and that his distress can- not be known by anyone from whom he desires It kppt secret. The •agony" advertisements are always anonymous. Nevertheless, the Times, like other English papers which fea- ture such departments, always satis- ties itself of the genuineness of the appeal before publishing it, and has the name and address of every advertiser. It is only this guarantee that would cause us to accept as genuine the following: "£1,000,000 will be paid for an English estate with commen- surate income. Any estate with rent roll of from £20,000 to £50.000 a year considered, being required for investment of surplus capital. Re- plies, which will be treated in strict- est confidence, to Croesus, Box X 184, the Times." It is plain enough that this is the call of a profiteer, of somebody whom the war has made fabulously rich so swiftly that he has not been able to invest his surplus. It is also plain that the million pounds is a mere surplus, since no sane person would now think of in- vesting his entire fortune or even tho greater part of it in an English estate, with a view of present and future taxation. Indeed, the sanity of the advertiser, even as it .is, cannot be regarded as beyond sus- picion. A man who buys a million pound estate at once advertises -Uio fact that he is tremendously weal- thy, and apart from the taxation of the land he "may expect Government experts • to ' be extremely curious about his other sources 'of income. It is certain tiaat there exists in Eng- land some desperate proTiteers whom the' Govera«ient has not been a^e to reach,. „- - Side by side with the conscience- less Croesus are,-the appeal? of those who helped 'aniiisis his fortune. Here is" one" ''"VVould anyoffe'like to subscribe to my wetWing? I have the girl and nothing else, I work hard. but. unless miracles happen marriage- is hoiieless. Will anyone help a 'buste^' warrior? â€" Box X ,5618, the Times. "^ There is a breeziuess about this appeal that, one would think, would have enabled the "bust- ed" warrior lo get married before this. Here is another: ' "Pseudo - gentleman - lieutenant, having been segregated from H. M. Forces, emerges with five years' in- tellectual stagnalioii, jobless. ^ Will soon be tinancially abashed as gi'a- luily is smitten witli a wasiing sickness. No qualification beyond general clerical work, hut would accept anything from slioeblack to manager of picture house. Good military record. â€" Box 10,072,380, Oxford street, W." Two more specimens: 'Will anyone help aged officer ot very good birth, demobilized, about middle November, to earn his liviug? Experienced motor driver, ride and drive, traveled and motored in nuiny countries; would invest gratuity and small savings in motor it regular em- ployment cotdd be got or would act as chauffeur-companion to elderly Ijersou. â€" Box R. oi, the Times, Lou- don. E.C.4." "An ex-officer (age 40, family), who came (5,000 miles to join up (France, 1915), has for months past sought appointment in vain. Earned £7-800 p. a. pre-war. No^ nearly 'broke.' Qualifications: Served prac- tical apprenticeship shipbuilding (twice won National Competition for original designs of steam yachts), subsequently many years' experience both shipbuilding and general con- struction ot big buildings, including various ferro-coucrete work; lapidtil quantities, estimates and calcula- tions; engineer in charge of largo construction work and organizatioji and control of labor. Advertise* of- fers services in practical capacity to anyone who will endeavor to make use of same, â€" Box .179, the Times." There is not an issue of the Times in which simildr advertisements do not appear. Many of them are in- spired by the ditHculty of getting homes. One man advertises his willin.miess to give £100 to anyone who will bring him tlu> key to a cottage or house ttial rents for £60 a year. Another offers a bonus for whal he calls a "while elephant," a house that is large, in disrepair, in- accessible or haunted. Another wants three rooms in a stable for whieli ho is ready to pay handsome- •4j'. This is a demobilized Canadian, who describes himself as an artist craftsman. There are, of course, the old pre-war advertisements of men struck with a pretty appearance and desiring the name and address ot the young lady who was seen step- ping off a bus at the Charing Cross station. There are the tnysteriotis messages which are daily scanned by Scotland yard and whi(;h ere now have le.sulted in the discovery of serious crimes, and there are the touching in menioriatn cards which arc likely to appear before the eyes of readers for at least a generation lo come.
