THE AMATEUR PHILOSOPHER.


Time will cure a girl of a love affair.
but another man is a quicker method.
The trouble with too many of the
Truly Good is that they always speak
of their honor with an upper case II
and act as though they had a copyright
on all the virtue there is.
It's a good memory that recognizes the
souvenirs of love affair six months
after it's ended.
A woman never gets so old as to be
absolutely independent of her chamOis
skin, but after a certain age she uses II
with less care whether from Indifference
or failing eyeSight, and most of the
powder sticks in her eyebrows.
A party in the AIellin's Food crowd is
not a complete success if there is a
whole piece of furniture to be found In
the house next morning.
Say what you please, a conversation
IS pretty duh unless someone gets out
hammer.
The T. B. Sweet residence at 231 To-
peka avenue is admirably suited for
musicale which was the form of enter
tainment chosen by Miss Sweet and
Miss Mary Sweet for the introduction
of their guest. Miss Denny of Seattle,
Washington, to their Topeka friends.
Great bowls. vases and jardinieres of
roses, carnations and sweet peas in
pink and white added to the attra ctive
ness of the library where Mrs. Sweet.
Miss Sweet, Miss Mary Sweet and Miss
Denny received; the long drawing room
where the guests were seated during
the prOgranme e, the music room beyond

! hurst. soprano; Miss Gertrude Tracy
/ pianist; Miss LuCelia 3. Clarke violin
/ list, Miss Mary Sweet, pianist, and Mr..
/ Paul Sweet pianist. One of the notable
/ features OF the affair was the beautiful

stunning in a biscuit colored embroid-
cred crepe de chine combined with black

the front of the bodice and panels in
the skirt, and turquoise panne. She
wore a large picture hat of black lace.
