There are some Topeka people who
know of r. E. Graham, the Cyrus Gil
fain of "Florodora," aside from his
work before the footlights. This is be-
cause he married Carrie Cook, a To-
peka young woman who went into the
chorus some five years ago. She was
known to a considerable number of
people here and was bookkeeper in a
business esta blishment for some time
They must be divorced, as Graham
married again last spring.

comedy ranks of opera. He was prin-

FALSE TEETH FOR COW.
How Topeka Young Man Won
Sympathy of Club Women.

c. H Sessions, Topeka correspondent
for a Kansas City paper, publishes the
following story on party of Topeka
club women. " s-u
Some Topeka club women are now
raising funds to buy a set of false teeth
for a COW. There is funny little story
connected with the affair A few days
ago the women belonging to one of the
numerous local clubs met at the home OF
Toll d. Bunker, young business man
of town. Bunker gpt home that after
noon before the club finished its meet
ing. He was out in the yard tending
to a fine Jersey COW and when the meet
ing broke UP some of the women stop
ped to admire the animal. If there is
anything that catches the eye of a wo-
man it is a pretty little Jersey COW.
They were making all kinds of favor
able remarks about the COW and calling
her pet names.
Isn't she just too sweet?" said one
woman.
She was an excellent animal until
she lost the front teeth on her upper
jaw responded Mr.. Bunker
How did that happen?" asked anoth-
"Oh, she got the hay fever some time
ago and her upper teeth all fell out, 4"
said Mr.. Bunker He Tipped her upper
lip up over the jaw to show the women
that there were no teeth there
Poor thing" chimed dozen or so
women in chorus.
Cant you do something for her?"
asked another.
Yes, l could replied Mr.. Bunker,
tbut l don't know that 1 will. A vege-
tartan wants TO charge me SIS for a set
of false teeth. The COW isn't worth
more than $45. SO it would hardly pay
me to lay out that much money for
teeth for her.
But think of the duty you owe to the
dumb brute" said one woman Why
she will starve to death. She is getting
poor already. See how lank she is just
in front of her hips.
ct is too bad" replied Mr. Bunker.
but really l can't see my way clear
to spend S25 for a set of false teeth for
a s45 cow 7 will take as good care of
her as possible. but of course if she
starves to death 1 can't help it.
The women then got their heads to-
gether in consultation and in a few
moments asked Mr.. Bunker If he would
have any objections to them taking
hold of the case and saving the cow
life
He said he would not in the least.
The women decided then and there to
raise the necessary funds to buy SET
of false teeth for the COW by the end
less chain letter system, and several of
them have already sent these letters
on their mission. Just what will hap
pen when these club women find out
that COW doesn't have any front teeth
on the upper jaw is problematical.
