PLENTY GAS SAYS TRELEAvEN
More Pressure Than Needed Asserts
Local Manager.

"At noon today the gas pressure in
the Topeka mains was 110 pounds" said
L. G. Treleaven. the manager of the 10
cal gas company, this afternoon Eff
teen or twenty pounds pressure is suf-
hcfent to give Topeka all the gas that is
needed for the present cold spell. If
there are any complaints from our pat
rons they are caused by the fact that
they allow the gas to be turned COM
pIetely out at nights. This is poor econ
omy as it takes that much more gas
to heat up in the morning A coal fire
won't die down like gas does when It
is turned out, and a coal stove Will re-
main warm nearly all night. IN this
regard you can't expect so much from
gas as you can from coal and If your
house doesn't heat up as quickly in the
mornings the gas is not to blame. Any
kind of fuel Will require some time be-
fore it can heat up cold house. No.
there won't be any trouble during the
present cold spell. for We have more
gas than can be used

women from achieving success more
than everything else.
Success In Dress.
their clothes"
If a woman wants to make success
in business or anything else she must
give up trying to have a great many
elaborate suits and dresses and be
content with just two outfits. one for
pest and one for ordinary wear She
must give up iabots and fluffy ruffies
that keep her fussing all the time over
them and waste her strength
No woman can serve two masters,
and she cannot be a fashion plate and
Work itself does not break down many
women. 1t is worry and trying to do
too many things at once
Two business women of my acquaint-
ance had nervous breakdowns last
year, but one owed her i'll health to
worry over her bills. She was at
tempting to live beyond her means, and
the other sat up late at night to make
finery she could not afford.
How foolish of them. And what did
they gain in the end? Ruined health
and great loss of things really worth
while.
The love of fnery is innate in every
girl. and sometimes it works a lot of
harm For instance, little stenographers
will economic on lunches to buy rib

Merit of Sincerity.
We will never really amount to any
thing as a sex until we cease to be
slaves to the tailor and the dressmaker.
1t pays to be sincere in this world,
believe me it does. I'm not saying that
one can't succeed If one IS fnsincere
provided one has plenty of money and
a pleasant, entertaining manner but
such popularity takes wings quickly.
If you are sincere you attract sincere
