A Topeka woman who wears a wire
rat went to visit her sister to whom
nature has been so generous that she
doesn't have recourse to such toilet
aids. Consequently the Topeka wom-
ans wire rat was an object of wonder
and curiosity to her little nephew. One
morning when she had left it off in
making a hasty stay-at-home toilet she
heard her nephew call one of his play
mates into her bed room. Come in
here he shouted. land see my Aunt
Grace's tin hair!"
A Topeka man says his family are
leaders of society in their unfashion-
able neighborhood because they draw
four salaries and a pension and he
doesn't see why they should move to
a stylish part of town and pay a high
rent to be snubbed when they can be
envied where they are. A distinction in
Parkdale may be a disgrace on Rhine
stone avenue.
