| In most towns the average girl does
| well to have one sutton but in Topeka
men are so plentiful and the girls so
| clever at stringing them that all the
| more attractive ones have from two
| to six beaux each, all more or less in
terested in them and serious in their
/ attentions. A West Tenth street CIR
has four suitors, two who live In town
and two formerly of-Topeka men ana
you would think she must hire a rella-
BILE dispatcher or there would certainly
be head-on collisions on her line every
day. But she is so clever that she man
ages them all successfully. When the
visiting men are in town the town men
| spend evenings at the club or go to sec
| some visiting girl and when the visiting
men leave the two men return TO the
fold. take alternate evenings and eat
out of her hand as before. In two oil
ferent Topeka families there are TWO
sisters who are also famous con ar
ltistes and they each keep three or -FOUR
men going all the time.
