pretty custom of giving a pOtted plant
for an Easter remembrance grows in
favor and the demand for novelties in
this line is met this year by the for
lists as never before. Old and new IA
vorites in this line are at Mrs Lords
at low prices and among the things the
Easter lilies which are always appro-
PIRATE, are. Crimson ramblers laden
with bloom, hydrangeas, valley lilies,
spirea, Martha Washington geraniurn
and azaleas.
The two girls in Topeka who look
best when they are down town-not
talking about party toys; just their
Kansas avenue makeup-are not what
the Sunday supplement calls Society
girls" They are Poor working girls
-stenographers. One of the P w.
G. s is a brunette, not over 21; the
other is blonde, not over 80. The
cigar store connoiSseurs say the brun-
cite walks the best of any girl in town.
1t is q pleasure to watch her go down
the street. She is slender, graceful,
straight as an arrow, and there is true
poetry of motion in the little swing,
graceful and almost rythmical, with
which she moves along, and the way
she sets down her neat, well-Shod feet.
Neatness is the quality that gives a girl
good appearance on the street. Some
of these frowsly. wind blown girls are
the cover of a magazine, but the two
P. w. G.'s who make everybody on
the avenue turn to look after them are
neatness itself, we'll dressed from the
ground up, and always immaculate.
The brunette has thick, dark hair
tho kind that looks best smooth; and
wears becoming, appropriate little hats,
and pretty, close wells. She is the
tailormade type-looks best in plain
coats and suits, and rather
severe shirtwaists. Her skirts always
hang just right, her shoes and gloves
ara irreproachable, and when she
wears white collars and cuffs with her
dark cloak or jacket, as she usually
does, they are spotless. In addition
to being so we'll groomed she is one
of the town beautieS-Some people say
the prettieSt girl in Topeka, with a
perfect olive skin, luminous dark eyes,
beautiful brown hair. and an exquisite
figure. The blonde is also handsome
girl, with a fine figure and a crown of
lovely red-gold hair. She always wears
the Best Looking clothes-chic and
condemned to spend the most of her
time in an office, she is always as fresh
and dainty as a rose.
