The magnificent apartment house, corner Arden Avenue and Paradise Alley
This apartment air castle is built and finished with a careful attention
to detail, which combines Eighteenth-century Romance with
Nineteenth-century convenience. Among its advantages over older air
castles are:
Express Elevator to Seventh Heaven
Trolley Line to Arcady
Dream Interpreter Call and United States Valentine Chute on every floor
Lighted by an Automatic Electric Moon
Surrounded by sturdy oaks and clinging vines.

There’s a new heart awaiting a tenant,
To whom shall its portals unclose?
Dan Cupid is floating his pennant
At The Sign of the Lily and Rose.
This heart is not offered for selling,
The owner all freely bestows
A hostelry fit for Love’s dwelling,
At The Sign of the Lily and Rose.
There’s a happy smile caught in her dimple,
That only a debutante shows;
And chatter is guileless and simple
At the Sign of the Lily and Rose.
