A Topeka girl who has been visiting
in little old New York" tells a story
of the enchantment distance lends to
a Kansas author. She says that the
new novel, 1.-The Price of the Prairies,' y
is being eagerly read by everyone down
east who can lay hands on it, and is
talked about wherever the subject of
the late books is mentioned. She told
a number of her friends that she lived
in the same block with the writer OF
the story and knew her we'll; that she
had heard a good deal of the novel
read from the manuscript as it's chap
tiers were added from day to day. Soon
she began to notice that she was a
object of curiosity and more than Or
didn't know came to call on her and
to ask her to tell them about hef
neighbor with the pen of genius, and
nothing about her was too trivial to
be interesting. Thus the young lady
I had her day of fame, even though she
shone by reflected glory.
