and there's a man shy. No one to

We promised to supply the vacancy,

The Telephone.

Rural telephones are boon to the
farmers. They can keep in close touch
with the markets, and all the doings
of the outside world. One of the uses
that the phone can be well put to, is
the getting Of late market news from
the home town. There are very few
farmers who cannot use the telephone
with profit during the marketing sea-
son.

The editor of the Demo-
crat had the pleasure of short visit to
the great Exposition and we are glad
to say that we found it in reality
great Exposition. We are glad to add
word of approval to what has al
ready been said to Others of the merits
of the Exposition because it is on
| Southern territory and especially be-
cause it is in Virginia. 1t was mis-
fortune that the Exposition was open
ed before it was ready and that the
people of Norfolk, as rule Overcharged
the early visitors but we are glad to
state that both of these obstacles have
been overcome. The Exposition has
been completed and the people were
not slow in seeing their mistake and
lost no time in reducing their prices to
a reasonable figure.
The Exposition of course is not of
the magnitude of the Worlds Column
bian Exposition at Chicago in 1898 or
the louisiana Elk osition at ST Louis
in 1904 but in our opinion it is equal if
not superior to that of Buffalo. n. Y.
We found it possible to see the Expo
sition with considerable less expense
than any we have yet seen and in
many respects the most satisfactory.
| The facilities for get ting to and from
the grounds are expeditions and COM
Portable and visitor may go where he
will find the people civil and accom-
modating. 1t is nounusual thing for
Norfolk people to walk block out OF
their was to show visitors their way.
The trip to Norfolk is worth the
money it costs without consideration
of the Exposition. The trip from Balti-
more to Norfolk by any OF the superb
steamers of the Chesapeake Steam
ship company's line is luxury at
small cost, and is trip we feel safe in
recommending to all who wish to visit
| the show.
On our visit to Norfolk we had the
great good fortune of being the guest of
our friend Mr.. Howard Lloyd, a boy
of old Berkeley who has met with
prosperity in the city of his adoption.
His good wife is most charming Vir-
ginia lazy of oneof Norfolk's best
families and they have one cLiid
bright lad OF about five years. Mr.
Lloyd ard his good lady contributed
no little to our pleasure during our
stay in Norfolk for which they have
our hearty thanks.
