The queer dissimilarity of human aspirations echoes through the "Situations Wanted" page. Here is a "_Gentleman_, excellent education and personality, linguist," who wants a position as a companion, or "courier, &c." A "_Highly_ educated French lady would gladly take a child for walks every day from 10 to 12." A "_Lady_, 27, of literary bent desires position as companion around the world." It is remarkable, the number of persons there are in the world of "literary" tendency. Remarkable, too, how many people with an inclination to travel. Here is a "_Cornell Graduate_" who has, apparently, no aversion whatever to spending the winter in "a warm climate." There are "_Two_ young men, partners," who "wish to join an expedition, any destination." But there are home-keeping souls, too. A "_Cultured_ elderly man, neat," craves "household duties." And so on. What a rich variety of characters throng the populous scene of the "Situations Wanted" page! Here, in today's paper, following the advertisement of a "sculptor" comes that of a "former policeman." A "_Physician_, practicing twenty years in Paris, speaking English, French, Spanish, German, Italian, seeking situation," is cheek by jowl with a "_Plumber_, good all round man." A young man who has "put 9 years at sea as steward" nonchalantly asks "What have you?" A "_Former College Professor_, 30, seeks field of occupation in advertising." And a "_Cavalry_ man, excellent record, wishes position at anything." A "_Cultured Visiting Governess_ of good family, social position, trains ladies, English, grammar, literature, elegant correspondence, art of conversation, current events, social etiquette." A remarkable "gentleman" presents himself as "qualified to do most anything." And a "Christian, age 38," wishes a position as "manager of a laundry." A strategic device frequently employed by the humble is that of getting someone whose position has weight to present them. For instance, "Rev. Dr. Moffett recommends a colored man for janitor of a loft building." And numerous are the gentlemen who, laying up their cars, are interested in placing their chauffeurs elsewhere. "_Boy_" is perhaps the word which dominates the page. Most boys, apparently, are not particular in their choice of a calling. They are "willing to do anything." Now and then one declares that he is a "good fighter," or something like that. Here is one who demands a "position where mental ability will be necessary." Here is another who is very specific, thus: "15-1/2 years old, 5 feet 8-1/4 inches tall." Sometimes one meets a very extraordinary character in these columns. The other day no less a distinguished person than this put in an ad:
