Some ol Its Acts Epitomized A - Volume Coatainlna More Law Than Existed Among the Ena Ilsh-Spealdna Peoples When , Blackstonc Wrote, Entertain Ingly Reviewed. , ,' Thorn W, Alexander la Charlotte Obserrer, Legal - history relates " that the tryant Caligula was wont to write his laws and edits in small characters and place them qq tree-tops and high places in order to more effectually en- soare the people" who were compelled to live in conformity therewith.' Analogous to that idea is the condition in North Carolina to-day. Although laws were enacted in January, yet it is July hef ore they are print ed and given to a tremulous public, and even at this late day only a limited number of the Acts of the Legislature are available. The system is hard ly compatible with the maxim "ignorantia juris nonexcusat and should it continue to pre vail all laws should go into ef fect August 1st following ad journment of Legislature in stead of "from and after . their ratification." The "Public Laws of North Carolina, Session of 1907' as they are officially styled, com prise a portly volume of some ,500 pages of fine type or 1, 019 separate acts with 37 reso lutions added, and treat a mul titude and variety of topics. In some" places it reads like a novel. During the brief session of about 70 days more law was made, in bulk, than existed when Blackstone wrote,- and by the side of whiclTthe Ten Commandments and the Magna Charta resemble ', pygmy stat? utes.

Thel kardent'; is always ' a fru itf ul -, source of legislation and no less than ninety differ ent laws were passed ' on : this subjects reaching a climax in an "Kelaung to scienunc tem perance instruction iripublic school." The evil effect' of al cohol "and narcotics is thus brought to the immediate at tention of theXyoung. The Rev. Richard Morse should be elected professor emeritus of his branch of learning and his 'tummy charts adopted as he most approved method of inculcation. Dispensaries, pre scription writing, drinking on railways, and nearly every phase of the question is broached, while Chapter 77 relates to the traffic or gift of cocaine (alpha or beta) opium, morphine, heroin or any com pound of same or their salts. By Chapter 901 four arid one-half pages are, devoted to mineral waters, soda waters, beer.lager beer, milk, and other bever ages, and .treats the handling of these- commodities. Chap ter 368 is truly a pure food act and is designed in scope and effect to prevent the" manufac ture or sale of adulterated, rais- I'U stop your pain free.

Every manufacturer and mer chant should have a pocket edi tion of this act ? fox his daily guidance. Dealers will find interesting reading in Chapter, 331, which is to provide uni; form stamping of gold and sil ver articles of merchandise. ' BANK AND BUSINESS. A new penalty for usury is created by Chapter 110 in re gard to loans on chattel securi ty of household effects, and the criminal law is called into play. An act of great benefit to foreign creditors is contained in the provisions of Chapter 623, which makes the sale of merchandise in bulb, other than in the ordinary course of business, a fraud, unless the creditors have seven days' no tice. This law will prevent the ourchase between suns of stocks of goods but it is easy to conceive instances wherej it will work a hardship. Manufacturers, dealers and agents in fertilizers will find a substitute for the former law in Chapter 670,which will stand scrutiny with profit. v; Minors of the age of fifteen or upward are permuted to deal with banks by way of de posit and check. The giving of checks on a bank or trust company with no funds or iu sufficent funds and dishonor by the bank is denounced by Chap ter 975, while days of grace are treated by Chapters 861 and 897.- . ,v ... Railroads legislation has al ready received wide publicity, and the rate on passengers and freight traffics is well known. Monopolies are held up to pubH ic scorn and the tobacco trust gets the big stick, while insur ance companies must refrain from contributing to campaign funds. Child labor is not for-gotten- and-the bou r s-of-em ploymentof railroad servants are remembered substantially. Insurance companies must fur nish blanks in case of loss by fire under penalty '"' of ' waiver, while the "iron safe clause" is rendered inoperative in regard to certain property. The I n surance Commissioner will be elected by the people in the future. A person obtain ing f oodretcfronr hotel,inns, boarding houses and intention ally defrauding the proprietor thereby, is guilty of a misde meanor. ..--. ' OF GENERAL INTEREST. The revenue act carries the usual sources of revenue, and the inheritance and income tax are mentioned prominently. The law covers about 36 pages and with its corelatives, the machinery act and board of equalization, would require many pages to discuss. Lib eral appropriations were made to the various State institutions and also to the noble survivors of that gallant, band, who, for more than four years, carried upon thei r bayonets the for tunes of the Confederacy The militia law is thoroughly reno vated and the adjutant general suffers a raise of salary to $1, 600.

The subject of pure wa ter in public schools receives careful attention and the right of eminent domain is granted io aid in the ause. One coun ty was created and named in honor of theillustriousRobert E. Lee. It is composed of ter ritory acquired from the coun ties of Chatham and Moore, with Sanford as county seat. immigration will receive an impetus from the new law and a desirable element brought in to the State. A silver service to cost $5,000 is presented to the cruiser "North Carolina." State loyalty is given a lift by authorizing the use of the State flag on public buildings and in other ways, but the act fails to contain a clause compelling the Southern Railway to display the State flag at the head of its m m engines. A large uuinoer ol counties adopted the legalized primary system and it may be that a State primary system may be enacted at no distant day if the popularity of this idea in the last Legislature be any index. INCIDENTALS. Osteopathy is recognized by the Legislature and a State board created. Trained nurses and dentists get a new act. The Elks are protected to the extent of makincr it a misde meanor for the uninitiated to wearthe.emblems of the .order. Tuberculosis received a great deal of attention and some wise laws were passed on this sub ject -one to separate prisoners having this dread disease from their fellow-prisoners. Auto mobiles get themselves talked about, but are compensated by an, act to make the temporary use, without permission, larce ny. Persons, seeking invest ments in bonds will do well to read the acts of 1907, as forty odd issues for town, counties, townships and-otbet purpose were authorized. ' OP INTEREST TO THE PROFESSION. The statute of limitations for caveat of. wills was enacted. Divorce was augmented by one additional clause. The judge or justice, upon a preliminary hearing, Vis authorized to ex clude all persons except those necessary to conduct the pro ceedings in case of certain as saults; The burden of proof for delay in shipping is placed on the railroads, where it ought to be. Bills of indictment are not to be quashed because a member of the grand jury has not paid his taxes or had a suit pending. The waiving of bills in certain instances is treated, while persons in jail in default of a bail are allowed to work on the roads. Case on appeal to Supreme Court is expedited by chapter 312, and court busi ness is simplified by legisla tion for stenographers locally and by Chapter 362. By Chapter 822, a person may be guilty of in tne day as well as in the night hereafter; this would ap pear to be in conflict with the well established definition of burglary. The Code of Civil Procedure escaped any mate rial change. i, your Heart or Kidneys, Clever Coffee imitation Ga ' a free sample of Dr. Shooo's 'Health Coffee.T If real coffee disturbs yoar Stomach, then try this while .

Although usually regarded as a sign of age, gray hair, or. cani ties, as it is called in the language of medicine, is not always so. It may appear early in life, even in the teens. In that case it usual ly effects young women rather than young men. A peculiarity about the gray hair of tbe young is that it is al most entirely white, and becomes so suddenly. All the hairs are equally affected, and one seldom sees the mixed color, . or iron gray, so common in those of middle or advanced age. Sometimes in the young, even in children, there is one gray lock like an island in the sea of normally colored . hair about it This is usually a family peculiar arity, occurring in one genera tion after the other. The cause of the hair turning gray is something that puzzles tbe doctors. The color of tbe hair is due to the deposit of pig ment in the interior of each hair, and grayness follows the loss of this pigment. That is self-evi dent, but the puzzle is what causes the pigment to disappear Some have believed that is due to the drying of the hairj which causes a shrinkage of its' fibres. and so allows the entrance of air bubbles, the refraction of light from which then gives the white appearance. Tbe proof which is adduced in support of this belief is that if a gray hair is put into the receiver of an air pump and the air is then exhausted the color of tbe hair may retu rn more or less completely. Metchikoff, tbe famous bacter iologist, says the. cause of gray ness is the penetration into the hair of wandering cells, resem bling the white blood corpuscles. These cells, . assisted by other cells, the argregation of which makes the hair, seize upon tbe granules of pigment and destroy them. Nearly every one has read of instances of , the sudden bleac h- iBRjDjrAhehwM night-under the influence of fear, grief or some other intense men tal emotion. That such . cases have occurred is undoubted, but the explanation by either of tbe theories above mentioned is diffi cult. : y1 ; There is no cure for gray hair so far as is known. The use of curling irons is said to retard its , formation; perhaps, if Metchni- koff is right, by destroying the activity of the cells which con sume the pigment. Forty passengers on a third- class railroad car, and the engin eer ot the train were drowned on the 4th in a railroad accidentnear Angers, France. The stone rail ing of a bridge gave way and the engine plunged into the river fifty feet below, dragging down with it its tender and the baggage and third-class cars. The third-class car was well filled with passen gers, but aitnougn part oitne roof was blown off by the confin ed air as it sank, not a single pas senger extricated himself and all were drowned like rats in a trap. The engineer perished beneath the locomotive. Ireaf . a E , On All Summer Goods. All Summer Goods Greatly Reduced Must be Moved to Make Room for Goods Arriving Daily.
