 With the comb pull out the hair be- tween these ribbon fllets. That in the front should droop well over the fore head. and the other divisions should be drawn out like puffs.
 When the hair has dried and the rib bons are removed In the morning the hair will be found to be in pretty waves. Care must be taken not to allow the hair to part or it will give an ugly effect when arranged
 If the hair does not curl easily the dampening can be done with water in which a little quince seed is dissolved.

SPIRIT OF LAW PREVAILS
Attorney General Kirby Cons'rues that
 the intent of an Act is the Law.

Little Rock, August 2o, 'Oo. The scare" sprung yester- day among politicians over the probability of a tangle as to the general election duties has been very much toned down by the opinion of Attorney General W. F. Kirby, who has declared the intent of the law must gov ern in the case and that there fore the election must be held on the second Monday in Septem- her instead of the first Monday. The opinion was not rendered without much agitation, however and the comparison of numerous authorities as to the construing of legislative acts where the let ter of the law conflict, for it was clear that the letter of the law in this case made the act of no eff feet until the second Monday in September, while it was also clear that the author of the bill and the Legislature as whole, intended that the election this year should be held on the sec ond Monday and that the old statute should be repealed.
 It was freely predicted among those familiar with court prec- edents, and particularly the pre- cedents obtained in the Supreme Court, that the intent of the law would govern rather than the letter. Others pointed out, how ever, that instances were not lacking where the letter of the law had been very rigidly follow ed, so that not until late last night, when Attorney General Kirby rendered his decision in the case, was anything like a quietus put upon the matter.

When the cameraphone was first put on
at the New Lyric about ten weeks ago,
il was thought by some that the house
had too large seating capacity, but the
first few weeks engagement proved that
the drawing qualities of the talking pic
lures were such that seats would be at
a premium, as was demonstrated again
last night. Standing room was not to be
had in the balcony, and every seat in the
parquet was taken at each of the three
performances. The bill this week is up
to the standard in new acts and songs.
