Itisone of the most useful kitchen articles we have seen, and, as the name implies, is economy itselt, The Bins are in two sizes, one for flour i and onetor meal. ‘The, material used in their manufacture is extra heavy imported tin,-Japan fizish, making the Bin attractive as well as useful. It is aveolutely proof against dampness, Waste, mice, roaches or any kind of insects. The flour or mel is taken out for use through a sifver in the bottom of the Bin, the measure of quantity de- sired being handy and accurate. In the front ot the Bin are small recepta- cles for spice, pepper, or other ingre- dients wanted in a convenient place. Every housekeeper should have one of these Bins, The agents will take pleasure in showing it and explaining its merits whether you wish to buy or not. io ' Monday ¢veaing James Long receiv. ed a telegram stating that his brother, Montgomery Long, of Abbeville, S.

Part of the Petition Can Be Compiied earners Last week a petition signed by many of the business men of Greenville was sent to M.. J. R. Kenly, General Manager ot the Atlantic Coast Line asking that the the schedule of the Kinston branch be shortened one hour each way. Mr. Kenly gave the matter careful consideration and replied very promptly. As our readers may tully understand the situation the Reriuc- for publishes below Mr. Kenly’s letter to the petitioners : i Witmineron, N.C., Jan. 9tb, 1897. GentLemen. Your petition of blank te requesting that the schedules of the passenger train: on the Kinston Branch be clanged so as to permit the morning trai to pass Greenville one hour later and the evening train to pass there ove hour earlier was duly received. ‘The matter has had my careful consideration. ry dMy desire always is to meet the Wishes of our patrons as far as it is practicable. I find that we can, without serious Consequences to the iaterests of the traveling public in Eastera . North Carolina, arrange to leave Greenville with the morning train abouv thirty (30) minutes laier, which I have di-| rected to be done at the next change 01 Timetable following the one now in the hauds ot the printers. I hope tliis * will be sasistactory to the petitioners, With regard to the evening train: 1 am sorry that it is impracticable to make any change in ils ume without serious inconvenience and injury to oth. This schedule is controlled by the “Shoo Fly” train trom Nortolk. You sugyest that in order to overcome this difficulty the morning train into Norfolk be made earlier and * the evening train leave their earlier. 1 think you would hardly make this suggestion if you knew thac the morning train now leaves Rocky Mount at 6:15 A. M., passes ‘Tarboro at 6.45 A. M,. and reaches Norfolk at 10:30 A. M. The train remains in Norfolk until 2:25 P. M., giving the people only about four (4) hours in Norfolk. To ron the Nortolk train into that point at an carher hour would seriously incon- venience the R.cky Mount and Tar boro travel which is quite large. The train now leaves those points as early -usit should do to properly acedmmodate _ the traveling public. “The evening train over the Kinston Branch, when the number of stops it has to make is taken into consideration, is quite tast. It has to run between stops at a speed ccnsiderably over thirty (80) miles an hour, which is as fast as we care to run a local passenger _ train of this kind. : » We have a constan: pressure from | the line. of the Norfolk & Carolina i Norfolk to have the m Rocky Mount reach | ' and leave there later, | O4 ». er impoitant interests.

The most extraordinary of all \jghthouses is to be found in the tiebrides, Scotland, on Armish rock, which is separated from tie Islaud of Lewis by a channel over 500 feet wide. On this rock a conical beacon is erected, and op its summit a lantern is fixed, from which night after nighi shines a light which is seen by the fishermen far and wide. Yet there is no burning lamp in the lantern, and no attendant ever goes near it, for the simple reason that there 1s no Jamp to attend to, no wick to trim and no oil to replenish. The way in which this peculia lighthouse is illuminated is this: On the Island ot Lewis, 500 feet or so away, is a lighthouse, and from a window in the tower a stream of light is projected on a mirrow in the lantern on the sum- mit of the Armish rock. These rays are reflected to an arrange- ment of prisms aud by their action are converged to a focus|® outside the Jantern, from: which they diverge in the necessary direction. The cuusequehce 18 that t+ | intents and purposes a lighthouse exists which has neith- er lamp cor lighthouse-keeper and yet gives as serviceable a light—taking iato account the re- quirements of the locality—as if tn elaborate and costly light- hou ith’ lamps, service room, bit es og snories wer wore erected on Seren Peet tee ae her ey train) ng , Btoré roo igre and im veya THE CITY. oF BETHLEHEM. 7 MO tt nt Time. { . take many people to crowd it; but, besides being the birthplace of, Je- sus, itis the birthplace of Israel's great warrior-king, David. Bethlehem today has barely 8,000 inhabitants and in appearance is ‘not attractive. The streets are tod narrow for vehicles—in fact, there is but one street. in the town wide enough for carriages, and it is 0 | very narrow that they cannot pass each other in it. The streets were | made for foot travelers, donkeys _ and camels. | Bethlehem is about five miles south of Jerusalem, Leaving the | larger city by the Yafa gate, we take a carriage and ride rapidly over the | fine road built but a few years ago. The carriage we are in and those we ‘meet are wretched affairs. The horses are to be pitied, first, because they are not well cared for, and, sec- ond, because their drivers are regu. lar jehus who drive them ‘‘furious- ly” up hill and down. In less than an hour we are in the market place of Bethlehem, in front of the Church of the Nativity. Let us suppose we have arrived on Christmas eve, in time to wander about and to become acquainted with the little city. Of course it has changed in ap- pearance since the time of the birth of Christ. It is larger and better built. Now, as then, the houses are of stone, and, as cities and customs change but little in the east, we may safely infer that modern Beth- lehem houses are much like those of 1,900 years ago. Perhaps some of the old buildings that were in ex- istenco so long ago may still be standing. Of course the great Church of the Nativity was not then erected, nor were any of the large religious buildings we see. These are the memorials of a ‘later date, built in honor of him whose earthly life began here. One would have to be unmindful of his surroundings and very unimaginative not to won- der what the place was like on that night the anniversary of which we are celebrating. We know that: then, as on this Dec. 24, it was filled with people. But those people had come for a dif- ferent purpose. Augustus Cesar, the master of the then known world, had issued an imperial decree order- ing a general registration of all his subjects. This wag for the purpose of revising or completing the tax lists. According to“Roman law, peo- ple were to rogist@r in their own cities—that is) the city in which they lived orto which their village or town was attached. According to Jewish methods, they would register by tribes, families and the houses of their fathers. Joseph and Mary were Jews and conformed to the Jewish customg It was well known that he and Mary were of the tribe of Judah and family of David and that Bethlehem was their ancestral home. Accordingly they left the Zebulun, and eame to Davia’s ‘own city,’ in the territory of Judah. They came down the east bank af the Jordan, crossed the river at Jericho and came up among the Judean hills and valleys till they reached Bethlehem. It was a long journey and a wearisome one, and on arriving a place of rest was the first thing sought. Evidently they a no friends living in the place, ,if they had, their houses were al eady filled. It was necessary that shelter be had and immediately. In the khan, or inn, there was no room. So there was nothing to do but oecupy a part of the space pro- vided for cattle. It was not an un- usual thing to do and is often done today in these eastern villages. In fact, they were aboutas comfortable there as inany khan. At a khan one may procure a cu) of coffee and place to liedown on .2¢ ioor, but each guest provides his own bed and cov- ering. This was all Joseph and Mary could have obtained in the inn had there been room for them. And here in Betlichem, in a stable, or a cave used for stabling animals, Jesus was born, and Mary ‘‘wrapped him in swaddling clothes and laid. | him ina manger.’’—Edwin 8, Wal. lace in St. Nicholas.
