Is , Dressing Nerly every one likes a fine hair dressing. Something to make the hair more manage able; to keep it from being too rough, or from splitting at the ends. Something, too, that will feed the hair at the same time, a regular hair-food. Well-fed hair will be strong, and will remain where it belongs on the head, not on the comb!

THE Washington Post says thai "Alabama, Arkansas and likewise North Carolina have taken steps to make it unprofitable to operate railroads within their limits. " Ohio farmers are offering beer ; in addition to wages to their farm I hands, and once more Kansas real-1 izes what a handicap site is under when it cumes io harvesting her i crops. : I Mr. Rockefeller, it is reported, J merely smiles at the mention of that $29,000,000 fine. It is the consumers of oil who are looking worried and getting ready to do the squealing. A Chicago woman thrashed her husband when she heard that he had filed an application for di vorce. Thai will teach him never to take such a step without first obtaining permission. Paris likes American songs and England has decided to approve of our clothes, If we could only make Germany like our tariff the European concert would be har monized quite to our purposes. Since the passage of the prohi bition law in Georgia, the Atlanta Constitution has published several poems on the subiect of "growl ers." The editor probably want ed to rush them while there is yet time. In addition to the biggest bass, the strongest onions, and the most luscious strawberries, Texas can now boast of having had the high est temperature this year, but she will probably be glad to have us forget it. "What has become of the old-: fashioned base ball player who hit i the ball so hard that he broke the i bat?" asks the Spartansburg Jour nal. We understand that he has contracted the habit of walking up to the plate and striking out. The Kentucky traveler who was arrested and fined in Texas for taking a drink of whiskey on board a railroad train will probably want to amend Colonel Watter- son's judgment that "Kentucky is j the worst governed State in ihe Union." The Norfolk Ledger Dispatch had this to say of North Carolina at the Exposition last week: "There is scarcely need 10 wel come Nordt Carolina to Norfolk, for it is as father coming to visit son, mother to her daughter, or of children of common heritage inter mingling in the delight of social en joyments. Too many, and too strong and tender are the tics that . evist between the Old North State j and Norfolk to call for any formal welcome, and this evening and all this week the people of this city will evidence their feelings by the public demonstrations in which they will join. Before the ties of steel were forged, and the arteries of trade flowed in the waterways, the blood of North Carolina and Norfolk commingled and laid the founda tions for mutual affection and de pendence deeper than commer cialism, and more enduring than business partnerships. In the years these ties have multiplied, and a closer community of interest de veloped, until today there are few things of which we can boast in which North Carolina has played no part." senator DICK still refuses to talk over the Ohio situation, but it might be impossible to print his remarks if he did. NORTH CAROLINA WEEK At The Great Jamestown Exposition. THURSDAY THE BANNER DAY. Tully 45,000 "Tar Meets" In At tendance Ureat Ovation To (iovcrnor tileiin. The "Down Homers" owned the Jamestown Imposition North Carolina week, August 12 to 17, and Thursday was the banner day, when, by actual count, 1 saw -15.000 people from the good old North State. In fact, as a matter of history, it remained for the people of the Slate that was first at Beth el io apply a liberal coat of iar to the "knockers" and make decent looking "boosters" of every moth er's son of them. Governor Glenn was given a grea; ovation and I shall not at tempt to give particulars of the elaborate programme so success fully carried out on account of North Carolina week, the daily papers have already, in the lan guage of the baseball rooter, given us more than a sufficiency. 1 will say, how ever, that with the excep tion of the ovation given 'ME' and Teddy when we opened the gates of the big show on April 26, 1907, at 1 1 o'clock, Washington City time, Governor Glenn was given the greatest ovation yet handed out to any other distinguished visitor, and his magnificent speech at the Auditorium, Thursday, won all hearts. But when the Governor nfViroiniaamst. to shake the hand i of the Governor of North Carolina ! I ve,w not hi. rvmimled of the fa- mous remarks once passed between the Governor of North Carolina and the Governor of South Caro lina. The weather man was also kind, and instead of a scorching land breee he swung the atmosphere across Chesapeake Bay and Hamp ton Roads via the N W. route in a ,i,. .,, ,).1i:i,,f,,iii. I refreshing. The North Carolina State build ing, now completed, elegantly fur nished and dedicated, was, of course, the Mecca for the "down homers." It was within iis home like walls we could meet congenial spirits, swap rosin and take a dip , w ell, not exactly take the dip, but plan to take it in the inviting surf of Chesapeake Bay, later on j in the day. Some of the home folks, includ-! ing my mother-in-law, said they'd ; look for me to tell the very truth j about this exposition this time, and they'd forgive me for the free use j of the editorial license I used to puff things, in general, on opening day. Well, its a gospel truth, now, the exposition is most complete in every particular, and by far the i most enjoyable of any of the big shows yet pulled off in this comi-i nent. Why they have actually transplanted the Panama canal i right in the midst of the grounds I and moved the battle field of Get tysburg, showing cemetery Huge where the brave Pettigrew led the "turpentine boys" farthest to the front, enabling them to reach I across the wall and exchange cour- I tesies with the bovs in blue, on the 0iher side. But the enemy of HB1 -'G5 is now our friend, and nowhere durimr North Carolina week were we received with greater cordiality than in the Stale build ings of the great Northern and Western States. I was particular ly pleased with the State buildings of Ohio, Rhode Island, Massa chusetts, Pennsylvania and West Virginia. They were all so cool, inviting and restful. The exhibits are most wonderful and in the magnificent government buildings; the States' exhibits; the Pure Food and Manufacturers' palaces, to say nothing of the hun dreds of other buildings, may be i found enough to interest and in- struct the visitor for a month on a j dead stretch. ' Among the pre-eminent features of the Exposition, in fact the at i traction that gave the "War Path" I its name, is the "Buttle of the Merrimac anu monitor. I his is a wonderful, startling and realistic reproduction of ilic first nuv.il til gagetneni between iron clad ships, when in reality they met in deadly conflict, within a stone's throw the building in which this reproduction is now given, in Hampton Roads and received their baptism of fire during that memor able period of the war between the Slates. No visitor can afford to leave the grounds without seeing this great attraction. Under the same management, in the imposing round building to the left, is the Battle of Gettys burg, which was the feature at the big World's Fair in Chicago, in 1903; and the Battle of Manassas, which occupies another of the three great round buildings, is a fit companion to the Gettysburg, cyclorama. All should see them the three greatest attractions of the war path. And one of the most important questions to decide is where to stop when in Norfolk? li affords me a great deal of pleasure to say, frankly, that nowhere in Norfolk can you liml a more delightful and restful hotel than the Victoria, sit uaie on Main street, half a block dow n as you turn the corner at the Confederate monument, coming up from the ferry. Our old friend, a regular "down homer," ('harks T. Bennett, for merly of Northampton county, and one of the most experienced hotel men in the South, is managing the handsome new Victoria, and it is needles to add he is making her oiiiii. It is home like, elegant in all its furnishings and appointments with hot and cold water and 'phones in every room. The ho tel is run on the European plan and the charges for these elegant rooms are reasonable. The Victo ria is rightly named, for il is in deed a "queen of resorts" for the uir trav eller There is an ideal v ! 1 1 i i n c room attached, wlki'e you in, iy o'ouiu the iiiosi tleg.mi iiieuK The alpine is certainly unexcell ed, serv ice perfect, and the charges f meals not high. In fact, you can get what you want at popular prices, served in ihe most elegant style. Charlie Bennett is making the Victoria the home for all "down homers. " 1 was truly proud of our grand old Slate at the Exposition, North Carolina week, and our hearts swelled vviih pride and we were glad at the cordial reception given ; us in the States buildings, the ex hibit palaces and along the War '" " wncreici incima- ''" kd us "'"'S 'I"-' M F '"f SIav Wllnm '-' KfOUIldS WC found enough to satisfy the most exac ting. Oh. for anotherglass of that delicious California punch! In conclusion 1 will offer the Old North State toasi, which the visitor will find in print upon the walls of the North Carolina State building: "Here's io the Land of ihe Long Leaf Pine, The summer land where the sun doth shine; Where the weak grow strong and the strong grow great, Here's to 'Down Home,' the Old North Slate," Yes, it's the Old North State forever; dear to the hearts of us all.

Raleigh is again agitated over the liquor problem. It now has a dispensary, and it is claimed that the institution sells more liquor than the saloons did when they w ere in business. W illiam Honun, a prominent farmer, living some distance from Roxboro, was found dead in the suburbs of that town on Saturday.
