A foolish sort of an offering
"This is a foolish sort of an offering that demonstrates to what measures a man will go to make an impression on a girl. He borrows the money to buy an automobile which he imagines will make the desired bit; he hopes to make her his wife but finds she has already married the chauffeur. - The Moving Picture World, September 19, 1914..."
