By Billie Burke.
The First Word-No woman
need ever expect to be beautiful
unless she pursues a mental, spir-
itual and physical beauty regime
daily.
Today we will concern our
selves with some of the little de-
tails that one should attend to-
daily, keeping the skin on the face
perfectly healthy and beautiful.
Ice is a great stimulant to the
skin. 1t will tone up habby mus
cles, if used properly, much more
quickly than electrical massage.
Many women use ice instead of
cream upon their faces. 1 do not
recommend this, however, unless
one has a very oily skin.
After you have cleansed your
face carefully by scrubbing it
with camel hair face brush and
a lather made from pure soap,
rinse it carefully with hot water,
gradually cooling it until the
water is very cold, dashing it upon
your face and neck.
Then take piece of ice and
wrap it in bit of antiseptic
gauze and rub your face and neck
with it, rubbing the forehead
across from temple to temple,
cheeks and chin upward and the
nose from bridge to tip. Stretch
your chin upward to its highest
point and massage with your ice
downward and out toward your
armpits. This will have a good
effect upon your lungs as well.
You will find after doing this

COMPLAINT FILED
IN BACK TAX SUIT
AGAINST INSURANCE CO.
IF JUDGMENT is GIVEN A PEN
Atty OF 10 PER CENT SHALL
BE ATTACHED.

Little Rock, Oct. 12.-The attorney
general today filed an amended COM
plant in the back tax suit against the
insurance companies, which will delay
the answer of the companies until
sometime next week. Counsel for the
defendants announce that they will Sc
lect probably two or three companies
in whose names the litigation will be
carried on, with the stipulation that
all others shall abide by the result of
these test cases.
In the amended complaint the
plaintiff states that if this court
should find that the act of February
27, 1876, has superseded and repealed
that part of the act of April 25, 1878,
requiring the payment of three per
cent license or privilege tax based up
on the entire amount of premiums re-
eeived in this state by said company,
and that said act of February 81,
1875, was a valid enactment insofar as
it required the payment of 2 IL per
cent tax upon the net receipts and
that said tax so imposed by said act
of 1875 is not tax upon property

and in that event plaintiff represents
and shows to this court that said de-
PENDANT has neglected, failed and re-
fused to pay any property tax what
ever upon a large amount of it's per-
sonal property in this state, which said
personal property consisted of money,
credits and effects received by said de-
PENDANT in the form of premiums and

the general property tax levies as pro-

said defendant has neglected, failed
and refused to return for assessment
and taxation any part of the personal

Judgment for amount due is prayed,
and if unpaid within three months,
penalty of 10 per cent shall attach,
and a master be appointed.

YESTERDAY 5000
PEOPLE ATTENDED
TOMORROW is LAST DAY
MAIN FEATURE OF TODAY'S
PROGRAM is REUNION EX-
CONFEDERATE VETERANS.

From Thursdays Daily.
The attendance at the fair is a
record breaker The weather has
been favorable, and more country peo-
pie than ever before have awaited
themselves of the opportunity of see
ing the fair, while the list of home
corners and outsiders has been unus-
ually good. The gate receipts so far
exceed those of any previous fair. and
the stockholders and manager are jub-
liant over the success of the fair.
Manager King stated today that there
were between seven and eight thous-
and people attended the fair yester-
day.
Today is Old Confederates Day and,
although the speakers who were invited
to attend did not arrive, good reun-
ion was had The veterans formed in
line on the public square and marched
to the grounds, the Martin band and a
company of the Daughters of the Con-
federacy preceding them. On the
grounds, Pres. J. J. Doyne and Col. G.
w. Bruce made short addresses, elo-
quent in praise of the old South and
her matchless soldiery. The veterans
then sang old-time war songs and the
company broke up.

A PATTERN FOR
CITY BEAUTIFUL
CONWAY SHOULD FOLLOW
GERMAN CITIES PLANNED BY
MASTER BUILDERS FOR COM
FORT AND BEAUTY.
From Mondays Daily.

From Mondays Daily.
Conway is now vitality interested in
civic matters, and the article below
from the Western Methodist contains
so much food for thought along the
copied in full
Along the River Rhine in Germany
certain cities have grown with rapid
ity which we think characteristic of
America alone. Great industries such
as we have in Cleveland, Detroit.
Pittsburg and Birmingham are found.
They have iron, steel, machine, tool,
silk, wooden and chemical industries
that are making Germany famous.
These cities might reasonably be ex-
pected to be dirty, ugly, unkempt and
unsanitary like American cities. They
might grow millionaires who move
away and breed paupers who stay and
die, but they do not. Their million
aires do not rush away as soon as
their money is made to pleasure re-
sorts to escape the supposed discon-
forts of the manufacturing centers.
They stay where their money is made,
and with pride show their visitors
how attractive and livable their cities
are, because these cities are examples
of what a factory city can be made.
These cities work for their people, and
their people build them up and are
proud of their success. They reap
large dividends on their investments,
as strangers come to see and remain
to build factories and homes.
The railway station is symbolic of
the enterprise of the city. 1t is like
the entrance to cathedral. 1t is i'm
posing, commodious, commanding. The
German city would be ashamed to
have it's gateway anything but invit-
ing and imposing. The Frankfort
station cost $9,OOO,OOO. and was built
when the city was comparatively
small. In front of the station is a
park or flower garden, surrounded by
clean, well-paved streets which radi-
ate in all directions and on which the
street railway converge. Around this
beautiful place attractive hotels, res
taurants and shops of uniform height
and harmonizing with architecture of
the station are built. This is city's
center 1t is scrupulously clean and
free from unnecessary noise and con-
fusion. Everything is beautiful and
convenient.
The whole city is carefully planned
by master builders, engineers and ar
chitects. 1t is planned for business,
for convenience, for comfort, and for
beauty. 1t is intended for people to
