Very beautiful in effect and without pretense to practicability, this costume of white taffeta silk is for those who may indulge whims of fancy for the unusual and short-lived in summer frocks. A replica of 1t, in some beau t1ful wash fabric, might embody it's distinctive features in material more easily kept immaculate. For there is no charm in a soiled white dress, no hating the design.
 Now that the weaves of cotton are showing that almost any surface and texture may be wrought in it, and these fabrics stand any amount of tubbing, the loveliest of gowns are designed of white cotton materials. The strong. firmly woven voiles, organdies incred- lbly sheer and fine, and many laces, unlike any that have gone before, prove an inspiration to those who dream out the daintiest of apparel for midsummer and for evening wear. Or gandie or high grade voile might be used to copy the costume of taffeta shown here.
 The model is made with a drop skirt and tunic, trimmed with many rows of fine tucking. Below the tuck ing the edge is finished with fine ac- cordion plating. This plating re- appears at the lower edge of the long sleeves extending over the hand, and plaited ruff forms high standing collar
 The tunic Is laid in plaits at the waist line, and the bodice is draped to fitted foundation which extends a little below the waist line, where the material is allowed to wrinkle over the lining. It fastens up the back with facing of white ribbon through but tonhole-stitched eyelets.

The number of women past middle age who wear hats of fine material and rich color increases from year to year. And the dignity of years is suit ed to the dignity of elegant fabrics and to richness in color. Nevertheless the majority of elderly women still like a black hat better than any other, and each season a distinct line of milli- nery is designed for them in black
 Such hats, to sell we'll. must meet the demand of tastes that have ripened and that require excellence in work manship. comfort in fit and certain style. This is the most difficult of problems for the designer, and has re- suited in developing specialists who give all their attention to this particu- lar branch Of the millinery art.
 The two hats for summer wear shown here are designs by an expert, and their strongest points can hardly

About Hats and Wells.

Suede hats may have soft silk crowns and the flat brims are quite narrow.
 They are accompanied by white Rus sian net veils which are decorated with two small beauty patches. Pale heliotrope veils, in silk Russian net, are modish. These veils are very flattering to a fair complexion, even more so than the blue veils which have just been launched by famous Parisian milliner. These pale blue veils are becoming to dark women, while those made of heliotrope net are ideal for blondes.
 The little wisps of fine julie or net reach only to the nose.

be shown in photographs. Their lines are graceful and they are soft and com fortable and made to stay in place on the head. It is in little tricks of drap- ing and in the unusual manipulations of material that these hats excel and appeal to the discriminating taste.
 Both models are made of milan hemp" braid, with drapery of horse hair braid, each having a highly lus- trous surface which saves them from somberness. Jet cabochons and orna- mental pins with cut surfaces add sparkling touches that finish off all black creations in the best possible manner.
 After all, when life becomes rich with experience and dress becomes of less importance to the busy matron, the well-made all-black hat meets her needs in the most satisfactory way.

Benton county assessments are she lowest in the state, according to FJ D. Brown. chairman Of the Arkansas Tax Commission, who addressed q letter to George N Gearhart, assessor of the county, requesting him to make more adequate assessment. Wash ington county has the second lowest assessment, and letter is to be fer warded to the assessor of that county.
 According to government census figures. farm lands of Benton county in 1910 were valued at s14968,935. This includes lands under cultivation or under fence and does not include wild lands, which the commission G. inmates to be valued at $4f6,21o
 "The total land value, according to the government figures on farm lands and our estimate on wild lands, is s15,3S4,145, yet Benton county lands last year were assessed at only $A.- 604, 4,371, or 16.9 per cent of their value," said MT. Brown. '',The assess ment is far from fair, as other cuuD- ties are assessed at much higher fig ures, and the average assessment of the state is 40.4 per cent of the real value. We will insist that assessors in counties where assessments are SO low make higher assessments. Let ters, following the circular letter ask ing for 50 per cent assessment, are to be sent to assessors in counties which have made such low assess raent
 An instance of the unfafrness in assessments is shown by comparf- son of Washington Crawford coun- ties, which adjoin. In Washington county lands are assessed at FPS per cent of their value while in Crawfor.i County they are assessed at 43.5 per cent.

Little Rock

Little Rock Judge Jacob Trieber in the United States Distrist Court granted an in junction against the enforcement of an order Issued by the Arkansas Rail- road Commission requiring the Frisco railroad to pay rebate on a ship ment of rice from New Orleans to Fayetteville. The rice was shipped to Helena over the Yazoo and Mississip- pi Valley railroad, where the con gignee. the Ozark Grocery Company, had it reshipped over the Iron Mou-- tain and Frisco railroads, after pay ing the freight to Helena. At Faye te- vile the Frisco refused to release the shipment until the company paid the interstate rate. The company ap- pealed to the commission and a month ago an order was issued requiring the Frisco to rebate the difference De- tween the intrastate and the interstate rate beween Helena and Fayetteville Members of the commission said the case will not be appealed.
 The rate on rice from New Or leans to Helena. 309 miles, is 10 cents per 100," Commissioner W. F. Me Knight said "The rate charged in this case between Helena and Fayette- vile, BPS miles, was 28 cents. There have been a number of similar cases and the commission intended to is sue orders to cover them. The ssro- eery company involved in this case is not inclined to pay for an appeal and the commission has no funds for that purpose. The consequence is this rate will be charged in the future.
