a Legal Suggestion.

Col. Chas. L. Jewett, an Indiana
lawyer Of much experience in cases
where large estates are disposed of
by will, suggests that a change be
made in the law so that a man dur
ing his life may 60 into court and
establish bis own will either by hav-
ing it probated publicly or esiab-
lIsh the will without making pub
lie the contents by having it au-
thenticated by the signature Of the
Judge and the seal of the court.
This would avoid many will con-
tests and after save estates from
waste IN needless law suits.

See the Fair for Yourself.

If you can possibly do so, go to the Exposition.
Get out of the old ruts, get away from home, and
see something OF the world: With the low rates
offered by the railroads, a man can take the trip,
being away from home a week, with expenses from
$50 up. Our people are now in better financial
condition than ever before, and they should avail
themselves of more comforts and luxuries. AS
we stood in front of Festival Hall, looking out
over the splendid vista before us, another editor
declared that that view was itself worth the trip
from North Carolina. But his thoughts turned to
those who cannot see the Exposition and to those
who have no desire to see it, and he spoke of an
acquaintance worth $4,000 who has barely been
outside his country in his lifetime. We ought to
avoid expensive habits and needless extravagances,
but let each of us endeavor to see something of
the beauties with which God has adorned this old
world and something of the wonders wrought by
"Men, my brothers, men the workers, ever reap
ing something new,
That which they have done but earnest of the
things they yet shall do.o

Within two or three weeks practically everything
will be ready.
To tell of the exhibits in the buildings would be
an endless story. The main buildings, their d-
mansions and cost, are as follows:

laps, Beers and Filipinos.

The Filipino exhibit is one of the most interest
ing on the grounds. 1t covers forty acres, and
there are 1000 native Filipinos, including 200
Macabebe scouts. The several tribes represent
widely varying degrees of intelligence and civil

A Word About the Exhibits.

Only a few of the buildings have had all the
finishing touches" put on them, and one great
building, that devoted to American art, is
not even open to visitors. Still there is SO much
to be seen that we have no disposition to COM
plain of the failure to show these other things.
The progressive farmer. [volume] (Winston, N.C.) 1886-1904, 1904-05-31
The Beauty of the Buildings.

The Exposition is not vaster than it is beauti-
full. If you are so fortunate as to go, do not start
out with the idea that it is your religious duty to
see the exhibits inside every building. See them
all if you can, but in any case do not fail to spend
part of your time drinking in the stately beauty
of the buildings and the sculpture. You will find
no exhibits of men, machinery or manufactures
better worth your attention than this splendid
dream which the architects have worked out in
dome and arch and column and tower. And if some
fair night you climb once to the heights of Festi-
val Hall and see the fairy city with its score of
lordly palaces and its hundred thousand lights,
with the musical cascades and the beautiful lake
between you and the Purchase Monument, you
have seen a spectacle you will never forget. You
have come as near as you probably ever will on
this earth to the old prophets dream of the New
Jerusalem.

AT THE ST. LOUIS EXPOSITION

AT THE ST. LOUIS EXPOSITION
The Editor of The Progressive Farmer returned
from his trip to the ST. Louis Exposition early
last week, but not in time to write about it for
last Tuesdays paper. And even now we hardly
know where to begin. Not only is it "the greatest
show on earth" but it is the greatest show that
the old earth has yet seen-twice as large as the
Chicago Worlds Fair, four times as large as the
Paris Exposition or the Pan-American, and five
times as large as the Centennial at Philadelphia.
Concentrating the purchase of the great Louisi-
ana Territory from France a hundred years ago
that vast area now embracing Indian Territory,
Oklahoma, the States of Louisiana, Arkansas,
Missouri, Iowa, Minnesota, Kansas, Nebraska,
Colorado, North Dakota, South Dakota, and part
of Idaho-this Exposition itself costs more than
three times as much as Napoleon received for all
the great Territory in 1903.
The Significance of the Exposition.
And this is the lesson of the Exposition-the
lesson from which the beauty of the buildings and
the interest of the exhibits should not be allowed
to draw our attention entirely. 1t is the most
striking illustration of the youthfulness of our
country.
"For we are ancients of the earth,
And in the morning of the times"
While to-day there are 100000 American citi-
zens IN the territory covered by the original
Louisiana Purchase, it was only a bowling wilder
ness when Jefferson bought it from France. The
buffalo and the Indian were in undisputed posses
sion, and the great corn lands of the West which
have become the granary of the world, we're
thought to be little more thap a desert. Almost
in a day the wilderness has been settled, the saw
age conquered, the lands cleared, and the highest
civilization developed. And to the St. Louis visi-
tor of imaginative mind there is something
strangely pathetic in the sight of an Indian here
and there, with blanket and feathers, gazing
stolidly at the grandeur of the white mans build
ings and exhibits stranger and an object of
curiosity in a land which but yesterday was the
hunting ground of his race. Truth indeed is
stranger than fiction.
