In looking up news items were surprised to find that our people did notice the excellent opporunity to make money. The "H H" club declared a dividend on April 10th. One boy who was bright enough to look after the matter, cashed in his cards at $2 73 each. Through the negligence or oversight of some people who might have taken his place in the dividends they neglected and lost that excellent opportunity. Every 48-lb sack of flour contains a card. Each of these cards is worth five cents in the purchase from the Topeka Milling Co. of one Universal Bread Kneader. There is another way these cards can be used. Ask your grocer about it and if he cannot give you the information, ask the Topeka Milling Co. to explain it to you. A contest is now on which expires November 30th. A similar contest expired April 2nd, 1908, and some some of the cards in that contest were actually worth $2 72 each. I; will pay you to sit up and take notice.

Don't write him anything by hand that takes him time to make out that may leave him in doubt—that he can't easily read And don't fill out legal papers or card memos—or make out accounts or hotel tenuis in your own handwriting. It looks bad, reflects on your standing makes people think you can't afford a tenographer, and is sometimes ambiguous. For you can easily learn, with a little practice, to write just as rapidly, and as perfectly, as an expert operator on the OLIVER. Because the OLIVER is the simplified typewriter. And you can see every word you write. About 80 per cent more durable than any other typewriter, because it has about 80 per cent wearing points than most other type writers. Eighty per cent easier to write with han these other complicated, intricate machines that require "humoring"—technical knowledge—long practice and special skill to operate. Than machines which can not be adjusted to any special space—with which it is impossible to write abstracts, insurance policies, or odd-sized documents except you buy expensive special attachments requiring experts to operate. You can adjust the OLIVER to any seasonable space—you can write on any seasonable size and thickness of proper right out to the very edge, without the '11 of any expensive attachment or special skill, and your work will be neat up. For the OLIVER is the typewriter for the doctor the lawyer, the insurance agent, the merchant, the hotel proprietor—or any man who does his own writing. Write us now for our booklet on the simplified features of the OLIVER. Topea, Kansas. Mrs. W. Miller, 911 Minnesota Ave. Lunch Room, Cafe and Cream Parlor First Class Home-made Bread Pies, Etc.

Ritalizing the demand among the Negro people for an educated ministry, the Tuskegee Normal and Industrial Institute conducts in connection with its other departments a Bible Training School. The courses of study are so arranged that not only ministers and licentiates may be benefited, but those also who desire to do better missionary work or become intelligent Sunday school teachers. The chief aim of the Bible Training School is to afford a comprehensive knowledge of the English Bible and to briety, cleanliness, regularity and accuracy are provided. The teaching is to the elevation and Christianization of their people. Daily supplementary exercises designed to instill habits of so tend an ambition to dedicate their lives wholly undenominational, the intention being not to oppose or antagonize any theological work being done elsewhere, but instead, to assist all denominations. During the past year the enrollment in the Bible Training school has been satisfactory, but the opportunity is now provided for a considerably larger number. The teaching is free. The cost of board, including furnished room, light, fuel, laundering, etc., is $350 per month. The entrance fee is $7, to be paid in cash by each student when he registers. Students will be given the opportunity to work out much of the $350, in some cases all of it. Lack of means should not keep anyone from entering the Bible School. If the student is not afraid of work and study he will succeed. For further information, address: Bookb L. F. WASHINGTON, Principal, Tuskegee Institute, Alabama. KANSAS CITY, KAN.
