most unusual pair, even Ruth liked
them, and she Is most fnstidious as 10
jewelry. They are about an inch and
half long and made to resemble u
graceful bunch of grapes. They fasten
to the ear with a small ball that looks
like old gold--thero nrc two or three
leaves at the top Of the bunch and small
green beads very much like jade form
the grapes. They are priced Mt $3.50,
and would most certainly give an air Of
distinction to the wcarcr.
The chiIdrcn's little fcct do look So
nice when they are pattcring around

fluid that carries with il the guar

perfectly splendid for tho cleaning Of

In quite large sized jar and sells for

partment has been to see me in regard
to the enforcement of the Dog Tax
Law in this county.
You are hereby commanded to have
your dog licensed Immediately. as the
time is now past due and the law COM
pels me to see that this is done with
the penalty of forfeiture of my office,
so will be compelled to have a man
in every precinct to see after the IL
censing of dogs and all those that
have not had their dogs licensed will
be reported and will be prosecuted
according to law, which penalty is
$100 fine and three months imprison-
ment, one or both to all owners of
dogs having no license.
You can apply to the County Court
Clerk in person or send by mail the
brced( sex, age and color of your dog,
with the accompanying fee of 81 for
the first male dog and 50 for each ad-
ditional male dog, and fee of 50 for
the first female dog, and "a for each
additional female dog, and there is
no limit to the age fthe dog, as the
ruling of the Attorney General is that
dog is dog as soon as it is whelped.
1t will be the duty Of the grand jury
to investigate all violators of the dog
law, so have your dog licensed imme-
diately and avoid trouble.
