THAT she is suffering any physical
agony. But she asks $4,000 damages
on account of loss of beauty.
Now, beauty is of mo value to a
man. Indeed it is frequently handi-
cap. Very few men, if they are OF the
kind who have ruled the world,
would pay 10 cents a ton for it. In
German military circles, for instance
the uglier a man. the better he seems
to stand and the students at the
training schools engage in duels Tor
the sole purpose of receiving fright
full scars-they are badges of manll-
ness in a way.
But with a woman it is different,
She values beauty; it is an asset
never a liability Given beauty, BRAINS
are not so essential in woman
Certainly there is reason to believe
that a beautiful woman has more
pleasure and less pain in the course
Of her life than her more homeiy SIS
ter.
Fifteen thousand dollars is small
value to place upon a beautiful face.
Morgan and his kind pay hundreds OF
thousands of dollars for picture
that can not compare in beauty with
an average girls face. So it would
seem to the layman that the valua-
ton placed upon her beauty by the
woman is ridiculous.
The interesting feature of the suit,
however, will likely be the expert

the testimony of men who set them
selves UP as knowing something or
the value of certain type of face.
We are anxious to learn how they

and how they will arrive at their con-
illusions.
After reading all EFF the testimony
and herring the verdict of the court,
we shall still hold to the old-fash-
tened opinion that a woman's beauty
is havond the power of the experts to
value: that it can no more be set

I'D LIKE SOME SALARY
SAYS JUDGE GRACE
Pine Rluff Jurist Seems to Think Leg
islature Should Provide for Pay
of the State Officials.
r. ~. U,5itor of the Gazette:

To the Editor of the Gazette:
The legislature has been in session
Annr months and has apparently just
rooched the question of providing re-
venue to meet the necessary and
unavoidable expenses of the state
government. Large appropriations
have been voted for more or less
worthy objects and many Others are
being solicited-for instance, one OF
100000 to help Little Rock pay the
expenses of the reunion. In the
meantime, the revenues OF the state
do not equal its fixed charges" and
our saloons have so far, declined to
increase them. 1t is also true that
i, a state officer, have been paid no
salary for March or April and only a
small part for February and the
auditor informs me that it will be
four months from the adjournment of
the legislature before l can expect
to receive anything. In other words.
l can take my choice of resigning the
office to which the people elected me
pr 1 can borrow money to live on and
pay interest for it for eight Or nine
months. Naturally when | consider
the situation, 1 am inclined to think
rather kindly of the distinguished
Arkansa description who referred
to a former legislature as "that
bunch of ducks"
The majority controlling the nre-
sent bunch seems to have wasted
four months in violating the, consti-
tutional provisions against special
legislation; squandered some 5000 600

How to Drink Milk.

The proper way Of drinking milk is
little understood. Thousands of people
drink glass Of milk without remov
ing the receptacle from their lips. No
sooner does this mass of milk reach
the stomach than the gastric juices
curdle it and form masses of hard,
tough and impenetrabe curd. If the
digestion Is sufficiently vigorous it
may be taken care of. but few have
such digestion. If the milk were drunk
slowly. at the same time a piece of
bread being taken. it would be finely
divided and the curd would be broken
up and the processes of digestion
would proceed readily. However. it is
an evident rule that milk should never
be taken rapidly in any considerable
quantity. but should be slowly slipped
or taken with spoon or in cOnnec-
ton with bread or some dry cereal.
