One of the interesting and instructive
features of the Masonic Fair, to be held
al Raleigh, October 18th to 23rd, will be
the illumination of the several rooms
The General Electric Company, of
Schenectady, N. Y, has }oaned for this
purpose a number of their latest type
enclosed arc lamps equipped with the con-
centric light diffuser. This apparatus
was designed especially for the lighting
of cotton mills, stores and public halls.
There will also be on exhibition lum-
chromoscope. This is the first one OF
these instruments to be exhibited in the
South. Briefly. it is an instrument so
arranged that four distinct portions Of a
piece of fabric may be simultaneously
shown as illuminated by four systems of
artificial lighting. In this way the effect
OF any of four lights upon one fabric
having a single or several colors may be
seen and compared at the same time.
To mill men, merchants and others it
will be well worth visit to the Masonic
Fair to see one of the best lighted build
ing in the country.
Mr.. Harry " Allen, son of Mr.. George

the General Electric Company, has been

Freight Rates on Iron Reduced.
(By the Associated Press.)

Birmingham, Ala, Oct. 9.-Effective to-
morrow, a reduction of fifty cents a ton
in iron freight rates will be made by the
Southern Iron Committee which includes
the railroads handling the product of the
Southern furnaces and mills. For the pasC
ten days every possible shipment on has
been held back to take advantage of the
cheaper freight rate, and it is now esti-
mated that several hundred carloads OF
iron are ready to be moved out.
The shipment of pig iron from this sec
ton since October l has not been of much
consequence. The shipments which were
absolutely necessary were made but many
thousand tons of iron have been held back
to start out after midnight.
The rates will be in effect to Cincinnati,
St Louis, Chicago, Cleveland and Pitts
burg
All these points buy considerable iron
in the Birmingham district and the reduc-
ton of fifty cents per ton, which goes to
the consumer, practically will play an i'm
portant part in the general conditions of
the iron markets.

CHRISTIAN SCIENCE LICENSES.
Recognized by law the Eealers Are Required
to Paw.

The Christian Science people, greatly
pleased at the law affecting them passed
by the last legislature, are apt also to he
pleased with the fact that the law recog-
nizes them as healers, and that it gives
them a license to heal
This license of IS annually required OF
physicians, has been required of them, and
how this came about in Kinston is told
of IN the Kinston Free Press as follows:
Sheriff Wooten issued license yesterday
to two Christian Science healers in this
city. This is probably the first to be
issued to the healers of this sect in the
State.
Upon the request of prominent healer
of the church the section of the machinery
act of the legislature covering it was
shown, whereupon application for license
was made and obtained.
The section after enumerating the diff
ferent profession, for which license must
be obtained to carry them on in State
further says, "and all other professionals
who practice the art of healing for pay,
shall pay license free of So
This was construed to include the heal
ers of the hristian Science church and
license was accordingly taken out.
The idea prevails that the last general
assembly of North Carolina relieved the
healers of this sect from paying this fee,
but this is not so. The board only OK
cused them from a medical examination
before board of medical examiners.

A GLIMPSE OF JOEEsBORo
Pushing and Progressive, Situated in Moore in
the Pine Belt Region
Especial to News and Observer

Jonesboro, n. c., Oct. 10.-The town Of
Jonesboro is situated on a beautiful pla-
teau In, Moore county. on the Atlantic
Coast Line Railroad and at the present
terminus of the Atlantic and Western
Railroad 1t is the highest point between
Cumnock coal fields and Wilmington, on
what is called the Cape Fear and Yadkin
Valley Railroad. The soil surrounding
the town contains just enough sand to
make farming easy and travelling pleas
ant. The people of the town are united,
public spirited and prosperous 1t has
seventeen general stores, three millinery
shops, two drug stores, an up-to-date bar
Der shop, saw mills, grist mills, two cot
ton mills. two progressive wood working
plants where all kinds of house furnish
ings are made, three blacksmith shops, a
coffin factory, good schools and churches
of different denominations, feed and livery
stables, and several other enterprises.
Jonesboro is situated in the famous
pine Belt" region, so well and favorably
known for its non-malarial and anti-con-
sumptive atmosphere. 1t. has an abund-
ant supply of pure water for domestic
use and for supplying steam for large
manufacturing plants. Since the compile
ton of the Atlantic and Western Rail
road to this place we are placed on the
same footing with Sanford as to freight
rates, which makes Jonesboro one of the
most desirable locations in the South for
manufacturing establishments. We know
of no better place in all the Sunny South
for the successful operation of a cotton
seed oil mill, an ice factory, furniture
plants, etc. A laundry and an overall
factory are both needed and would Fay

A number of new and elegant residences
are Sn course of erection and the future
outlook for Jonesboro was never brighter.
We feel that it would be unjust for US
to close this article without saying more
about the completion of the Atlantic and
Western Railroad to this place. This road
means much for Jonesboro. Heretofore
we have had no competing lines and have
been Disseminated against in freight rates
in consequence. Mr. w. ]. Edwards, of
Sanford, one of the most enterprising
men in North Carolina, conceived the
idea of building a road from Sanford to
Ellington, in Harnett county, via Jones'
boro. The first schedule trains began run
ming on this road last Monday morning,
the road being only finished to this place
as yet. The road-bed liz a very fine one
and well constructed. The cars glide along
smoothly as they do on a road that has
been in use for years. An excellent sche-
dule has been arranged so that six trips
a day are made between here and San
ford. The passenger car is one of the
best we have ever seen on a short line,
and the whole equipment is up-to-date.

ORIGIN.
OF a Famous Human Food.

The story of great discoveries or in
ventions is always of interest.
An active brain worker who found him
self hampered by lack of bodily strength
and vigor and could not carry out the
plans and enterprises he knew how to con-
duct was led to study various foods and
their effects upon the human system In
other words before he could carry out his
plans he had to find food that would
carry him along and renew his physical
and mental strength.
He knew that a food that was a brain
and nerve builder, (rather than mere
fat maker) was universally needed. He
knew that meat with the average man
does not accomplish the desired results.
He knew that the soft gray substance in
brain and nerve centres is made from Al
bumen and Phosphate of Potash obtained
from food. Then he started to solve the
problem.
Careful and extensive experiments
evolved Grape Nuts, the now famous
food. Grape-Nuts contain the brain and
nerve building food elements in condition
for easy digestion. The result of eating
Grape-Nuts daily is easily seen in mark
ed sturdlness and activity of the brain
and nervous system, making it pleasure
for one TO carry on the daily duties with
out fatigue or exhaustion The food is in
no sense a stimulant but is simply food
which renews and replaces the daily waste
of brain and nerves.
It's flavor is charming and being fully
and thoroughly cooked at the factory it
is served instantly with cream.
The signature of the brain worker
spoken of. C. w. Post, is to be seen on
each genuine package of Grape Nuts
Look in each package for copy of the
famous little book, The Road to Well
