The wise woman never ignores the decorative value of domestic animals Most of us have some favorite creat- urea dog, cat or bird, but compara- lively few of us realize how much they can enhance our beauty.
 Parisian women know all this only too well. Seldom do you find a French beauty who does not affect some ami nal to ''set her off, Som etimes the beaStie,yis chosen with a view to ac- centuating some good feature. some times to play beauty and the beast role, of forming a contrast to a particular point of beauty. As an Illustration, certain blond actress carries a cage of peculiarly ugly, b1ack-faced monkeys around with her, and has tanned them to cling on the back of her chair when she sits down.
 Needless to say, the contrast is pi- quantly entrancing.
 Another illustration is the cut in my article to-day. Cover Madame Ta.bby with your hand, and see how the really charming figure of the girl fades into Vagueness with its loss. Not that the girl isn't pretty-ana1yze her features, and yiu will discover that she is-but the fluffy, dainty little pus- sy curIed up near her adds materially to her charm. Her own features are apt to be somewhat sharp and thin. The plumpness of the cat neutraIizes th1s to a great extent.
 I am especially enthusiastic about cats, because they are the most truly artistic and beautiful creatures in ex- istence. There is not an ungraceful or ugly line in their bodies-not an awkward or gauche movement. They are all sinuous grace and supple beauty. Pick Fuss up, and drop her gently in your Iap-then notice with what confident ease she conposes her self into pretty picture. She blends with every color and every fabric. She lends her grace to your grace. She is

 1913

The Assessors of the City of Bridge port will meet at the Assessors Office, City Hall, on the Second day of Sep tember, 1913, and each week day thereafter, to and including the First day of October, 1913, for the purpose of receiving the sworn lists of all per sons liable to pay taxes on personal property (nameIy, horses, wagons, au- tomobiles,, stock in stores, etc.), and real estate, in the City of Bridgeport, making a description of all real es- tate, each parcel being separately de- scribed, including street number. And if he or she shall neglect or refuse to do so, the Assessors shall fill out a list for him or her and add thereto ten per centuna of it's valuation.
 The attention of nonresident prop erty owners is called to the change in the law relating to the filing of their lists, as failure on their part to list theft property during Septern ber deprives them of the right of appeal to the Board of Relief.
 Special attention is called to Sec ton 23O3 of the Statutes, which states that each parcel of property must be separately and accurately bounded and described.
 Post Office address of each owner must be given.
 Office hours: a. m to D. m.; Saturdays, a. m. to 12 m.

WILL TAKE OATH OF
 GOVERNOR WEDNESDAY

Little Rock, Aug. 5.-At ? o'clock Wednesday afternoon Judge Geo. W. Hays, after re. signing his office as judge of the Thirteenth Judicial Circuit of Arkansas, will walk from the office of Acting Gov. J. M. Flu trell into the reception hall of the State Capitol, and there take the oath as Governor of Arkan- sas. Itis probable that Associ ate Justice W. F. Kirby will ad. minister the oath, as he is a close personal friend of the new Governor, and was one of his warmest supporters in the re- cent campaign.
 The campaign will be without ostentation on the part of the new Governor. He will make no speech, thou gh it is expected there will be a large crowd pres ent, and as these will be enthusi- aStic friends of the new execu. tive, it is probable they will make enough noise for a whole group of governors.
 A special train over the Iron Mountain will bring from Fl Do- rado and Camden hundreds of friends of the incoming gover- nor. It had been arranged tc operate this train a week ago, but the failure of a number ot counties to make official reports on the return of the election caused the delay. White county filed it's returns with the State Board of Election Commissioner Monday afternoon, and with this county in, all doubt concerning the inauguration Wednesday was removed. There were still two counties out, Mississippi and Montgomery, but telephone as surance was given that they would be in the hands of the state commissioners not later than Tuesday afternoon. Wher they are received the State Board will meet and canvass the the returns. This is but a mat ter of form and will last but 2 few minutes, after which the new governor can take office al any time.

ARKANSAS PENSION
 BOARD MEETS

Little Rock, Aug 5.-Any widow of a Confederate soldier, who is in indigent circumstances who has lived year in Arkansas and who was the wife of a Con- federate veteran in 1878, is en- titled to receive a pension of $100. This is the decision of the Arkansas pension Board which is now in session. There has been some little difference of opinion as to the amount the widow is entitled to, or whether or not she may receive this amount after the veteran died. The Board holds that the widow of a veteran man receive pen sion, as his widow, even though she married a half dozen times after his demise, just so she is a widow and in indigent circum- stances.
 The Board is composed of Thomas Green, Sr., the head of the Confederate Veterans of Ark ansas, State Auditor l.. l.. Golf man and Secretary of State Earle W. Hodges. The meeting Monday was a short one because the counties have not all sent in their pension peports, one coun- ty being delinquent, and nothing can be done until this is re- ceived.

FIRST ELECTR0CUTION
 UNDER ARKANSAS LAW

Little Rock. Aug. 5.-The first electrocution in the Arkansas penitentiary under the new state law, will take place early in Sep. tember, and Lee Simms, a Prairie county negro will have the honor of officially testing the home made apparatus of the Arkansas institution.
 Simms was convicted in De Valls Bluff Monday afternoon on charge of criminally assaulting a young white woman at Bisco, near De Valls Bluff. The negro went into the home of the young woman's father, and seeing her on a bed, threw a blanket over her face and committed the as- sault He was captured and brought to Little Rock. SlmmS was taken back for a trial at a special term of the court, Satur. day, and on the way made a con. fession of his guilt.
 After the conviction Prose cutting Attorney Reed telephoned Attorney General w. L. Moose as to the mannerin which Simms should meet his death. As the crime was committed after June 13 when the law went into effect, he was advised to have the negro sentenced to electrocution. Al appeal will hardly be taken in the case, due to the confession o1 the negro's guilt.
