IEySr1Sh cities, the Austrian stage is be- co1nng rapidly Americanized. It has al- ways been the custom to change the play | nightly but now the American system ' of long runs has become a necessity for the hard-pushed managers. This arises from the new theatre law. For years the Austrian actresses and actors have been paid almost starvation wages and ill order to relieve them of one of their heaviest expenses the new measure pro- vides that all clothes, whether costume or otherwise must be paid for by the . management.
 In other ways the Vienna theatres have hard struggle. The opera and the Burg theatre, with their imperial subsidies. are $ the most fortunate of the lot and it was with the view of throwing some light on the efficacy of state subsidization that the writer sought out Director Hans Gregor. of the Court opera house. ~ , The man responsible for the Vienna Sopera, the first musical institution of Europe is always an object of criticism and even abuse.

THE BEST TREATMENT FOR
ITCHING SCALPS, DANDRUFF
AND FALLING HAIR

To allay itching and irritation of the
scalp, prevent dry, thin and falling
hair, remove cTusts, scales and dan
druff, and promote the growth and
beauty of the hair, the following spe-
cial treatment is most effective, agree
able and economical. On retiring,
comb the hair out straight all around,
then begin at the side and make a
parting, gently rubbing Cuticura Oint-
ment into the parting with bite of
soft flannel held over the end of the
finger. Anoint additional partings
about half an inch apart until the
whole scalp has been treated, the pur-
pose being to get the Cuticura Oint-
ment on the scalp skin rather than on
the hair. It is we'll to place a light
covering over the hair to protect the
pillow from possible stain. The next
morning, shampoo with Cuticura Soap
and hot water. Shampoos alone may
be used as often as agreeable, but
once or twice a month is generally
sufficient for this special treatment
for women's hair.

COLONY NEAR M0RGANION

Iachian Peak on the Cluo

Morganton-Not many people, now

there is accessible within four miles
an elevation which is SO feet h1ghcr
than the city Of AsheVille and l,OOO

On such an eminence there is to be
erected in the near future a CLUB
house that will cost $4,000, accom-
panied by such development as IS
expected to concentrate there the In
terest of several hundred people
throughout this and >other states. The
site is southeast of the town.
The High Peak Park Association is
the name of an organization which is
now in process of formation and In
which some of Morganton's most
prominent and wealthy citizens are f.
aancially interested. Five hundred
lots have been laid off and an automo.
bile road will be constructed from the
town to the summit of the develop
ment, this ROAD to be completed by
the middle OF May or earlier. The
lots are to be sold for S1O0 each, this
sum to include one five-hundredths in.

and also in 500 acres of vineyard, Or
chard and grazing lands; it will in
clude also a share in the ownership
of the automobile road The develop
ers have arranged terms which are
extremely easy, so that the financial
phase of the matter will present no
difficulties to those who wish to have
part in.
Messrs. N. Lazarus and B. F. Da-
Wis, two of Morganton's leading bust
ness men, are the trustees. The plan
originated chiefly with Mr. A. N. Kist-
Ter, cashier of the First National
Bank, F. w. Hotsfeldt and Mayor w.
E. Erwin. It is planned to erect the
hotel or club house first and then the
owners of lots may erect residences
at their leisure. 1t is believed that
the idea of this summer resort colony,
so accessible to the central portion of
the state and at the same time so
loftily removed from it's torrid tenn
peratures will make a strong appeal.
especially in view of the beauty of the
mountain scenery which Is not suffi-
GENTLY overpowering to be oppressive.
The organizers of the association
are also enthusiastic on the quality
of the vineyard lands included in the
property. Although the elevation
ranges from 1900 to 1900 feet the
entire tract is in the thermal belt
which means that the government
weather authorities declare that a
killing frost in Spring is absolutely
unknown. This is regarded as assur-
Ing bountiful fruit crop every year.

Fortunate is the one who can eat

matter of diet. Eating slowly, mastl-
eating the food thoroughly and taking
a short walk after the heavy meal OF
the day will do much towards assisting
digestion. Any grown-up person ougnt

agree, and these should be avoided.
When these common-sense aids fail,
the next thing to do is to take mild
