Another book by a Kansas writer
has been put out lately. Mary F. Not
tori of Abilene has published a small
volume of Feminine Reflections
which is collection of short para
graphs, more or less philosophical
expressing some observations the au-
thor has made on various subjects
including man, woman, children,
spring, happiness, pessimism, house
keeping and other topics.
In her reflections about man she
writes: He needs a vacation every
year, and he would take it if he did
not believe the world would go to
ruin while he was away. Also: There
are two classes of men-those who
smoke and those who leave the wash
cloth in knot in the soap dish
Among her paragraphs about woman,
she says: She will dislike her dress
for either of two reasons-it is Just
IKE what other women are wearing.
r else it isn't anything like what 9TH
7 women are wearing. She can go
hopping whole day without spend
lg cent and then get a free lunch
an aluminium demonstration.
In her reflections about children
re says; Almost all the parents are
imposed to do nowadays is to furnish
lie child, and society looks after it, |
1dy, mind and soul.
The Golden Rule club will meet Fri
ay afternoon with Mrs. L. r. Booth |
~ Horne street. Mrs. j. C. Griest !

Petit, 71s Taylor street.
At a meeting of the women of the |
Ba ptist society Wednesday afternoon,
a discussion was held on the subject |
of Child Hygiene. Among the topics |
taken up at the meeting was the de-
a defective child to die. The Chicago
Tribune has recently published an
article, in which the doctor says he
has been showered with letters from
parents all over the country who want
to sen dthier children to him for ex-
animation. He is asking that a ma
tional hospital be esta blished in which
the defective and unfit can be taken
care of. The discussion of the after
noon touched on the general care of
the relation of the child to
ne state, and the menace of the de-
'ective child. One of the members
present told of a review of the Chicago
,ase given in the National Medical
Journal.
A Topeka woman and her pretty
'ounS daughter went to Kansas City
o spend the day recently and do some !
hopping While these two people
lily had never been one of their
topping places, and they were t
Inacquainted with the curves When
luncheon time arrived they had c
lot decided where they would eat, but
hey looked about for a place close at g
land to save time for their afternoon /
uying. A well dressed man, standing |
n the street corner near Them at c
racted thier attention. The mother t
oHtely asked him if there was a good I
atfng house near. He pointed out a \
estaurant that he called the Green T
buck, or something of that sort which
e praised as being clean, inexpensive
nd offering good service. The wom-
n thanked him and entered the cafe,
iuming themselves a little on recog-
