don't. An Atchison woman who
works downtown has just returned
from a trip. She SAYS that on tine
Pullmans and in the hotels she
would get to talking to women, and
while she had not meant to tell she
was a working woman, some way 1t
slipped out and she always found
out that instead of talking to a
bankers daughter she was talking
to stenographer or bookkeeper.
She met a bride and groom. The
bride had handsome clothes and the
groom was well dressed. She
thought, Here are people who
have lived in the lap of luxury" but
upon becoming acquainted 1t was
the same old story. The bride was
a stenographer in the office where
the groom was a bookkeeper, and
