ANNUNCIATION
 ACADEMY

Friends and patrons of Annuncia- ton Academy are reminded that stud ies Will be resumed on Wednesday September I, 1907
 The institution is so admirably To- cated on Sixth avenue that the cleo tric car system conveniently connects it with all parts of the city, thus assuring to every one a means of attending, during indictment weather.
 The object of the Academy is to af- ford to the children of Pine Bluff and vicinity the opportunity of acquiring an education. practical and compre- hensive in it's character
 Pupils of all denominations are welcomed and no influence is used to bias religious principles but it is in- tended to train heart and mind, to form young women who will not only grace society with their accomplish ments, but honor and edify it by their virtues, diffusing at all times an at mosphere of goodness and knowledge.
 The course of instruction includes the primary, preparatory and aca- demic departments.
 The most earnest attention is giv- en to mathematics, literature and lan- guage. Pupils deficient in mathe- matics and the common branches will receive special assistance.
 In the music department, it is the aim of the teachers by means of a thoroughly systematized course of in- struction, to train the mind to a pro- per understanding and appreciation of music as an art. The exercises and pieces are carefully selected and adapted to the requirements of the student in her respective grade. To break the regular school mo- notony and to develop that ease, grace and refinement so requisite in polite society, the organization of school clubs" was considered and met with approval and success.
 Delegates from the Reading Cir cles and St. Cecelia's Music Club are chosen to recite or perform in pres ence of the students and visitors. The result is the cultivation of the power and art of expression; the apprecia- ton of the best literature; thorough knowledge of history and much prac- tice that insures a habit of correct writing and speaking.
 Every variety of artistic needle work, plain sewing, drawing and em- brodery is taught, free of charge.
 As the building is eXtensve and fur nished with every accessory for con- fort, convenience and safety, a limit ed number of boarders is received and are given the same care as they would claim under the paternal roof
 With such advantages, the best as sociations and surroundings favorable to study, the pupils must learn and can hardly fail to acquire qualifica- tions that would render them a bless ing to the family.

BEAUTfFYiNG WALKS.
Easy Way to Make Garden Path At-
 trsctive.

In my little garden on city street the straight walk that led from the gate to the front stoop looked hope lessly una nattractive-just a straight ce, ment path with the grass on each side, writes a correspondent of the Cleve- land Plain Dealer. Ten cents worth of nasturtium seeds changed it so much that 1t changed the appearance of the whole garden.
 I used the many colored dwarf vali- ety. It grows literally of itself. Plant the seeds In shallow holes, water well, and the plant does the rest. It is prac- tically free from insect enemies, and few plants will produce blossc@?s s enough to supply the house daily for the season. A pretty way to use them for table decoration is to cut them off short and float them on shallow glass dish or even a saucer. This way they make dainty little bed of yellows cinnamons, maroons and orange in tk~ center of the table.
