The Wise Ones have been persistently
reporting the engagement of a Topeka
girl all winter, first to one man and then
to another, with no better reason in
most cases than that they were sup
posed to be free from such entangle-
ments and she was decided to be old
enough. Now, however, that she is said
to be really engaged she has actually
had the temerity to choose q man
whom the gossips have never even
mentioned for the honor. The worst
of It is that they are likely to remain
in ignorance for some time of what has
been going on right under their noses
Tor years, one might say, although
somewhat internationally. The young
man is very busy and the young woman
very sensible and the date of the we'd
ding Is still some distance in the future
and quite indefinite so that it has been
agreed that there will be no announce
ment and to avoid the usual talk they
will be seen together in public very lit
tie. The young woman will continue
no doubt, to go about as usual with the
othsr men whom the gossips have de-
cided are so eminently suited to her
and 1t is unlikely that they will discover
Immediately that she has been so IN
grateful as to make other arrange
ments.

The sufferings of brothers from the
