VOLUMN X No 5 NEGRO DISFRANCHISEMENT. "If in choosing a man to represent you in congress you will vote only for the candidate who will pledge himself to introduce and support a measure that will reduce the representation of the Southern states in proportion as the vote has been reduced, the question of constitutional disfranchisement will soon be solved." Thus spoke Attorney S. Joe Brown, Thursday evening. September 29th, before the Good Intent club, which had assembled themselves together in the Second Bap tist church of Ottumwa, for the purpose of hearing the brilliant silver tongued orator, able and progressive lawyer riddle without mercy the unconstitutional constitutional Southern amendments. The advice of this well known young barrister should be copied and published by every loyal American newspaper in this country. It should be read from every American pulpit which stands for truth, honor and gratitude. SEDALIA MISSOURI, OCTOBER 17 1903 M. B. Rev H J.

After Booker T Washington In the Boston Guardian of Sept. the 25th is an extensixe explanation of the policy of Booker T. Washington. The article was reproduced from the Boston Transcript. The writer, who is a white man, asserts that Mr Washington's policy is damaging to the Negro race. His argument in jusiification of his belief is truly the most able and logical criticism that we have ever read on the subject. The article opened our eyes to the true condition of affairs as nothing else has done. After comparing Fredrick Douglas with Booker T. Washington, their achievements and the conditions under which each flourished the writer boldly asserts that Mr.Washington's methods are injurious to the Negro race. His arguments is so forceful that we are inclined to accept or share his opinion. He pays a glowing tribute to those two great Negroes and says Douglas escaped from slavery with his soul abored, but for Lin ```markdown ``` TIMES GLOAKS! GLOAKS!

You wouldn't plant seed in a garden and never look at it again. If you did, the chances are that it would never grow into the fruit-bearing stage of development. I saw a notice the other day of an advertisement which had been run continuously in identically the same form since 1866. That advertisement may have done some good, probably did; but to bring really adequate returns, advertising should be freshened by frequent changes of copy. I have recommended frequent changes to a man, who said: "Yes, but our newspaper charges us extra for composition if we change our ad oftener than once a week"—or once a month, as the case might be. That doesn't alter the case at all. The advertisement should be changed, and, if it costs a little more, it costs a little more, and that's all there is of it. It will pay to pay the I saw a notice the other day of an advertisement which had been run continuously in identically the same form since 1866.

It will pay to pay the additional charge. "You wouldn't plant seed in the garden and never go near it again." "You wouldn't plant seed in the garden and never go near it again." and never go near it again. A shrewd advertiser said to me recently: "I like to advertise in papers which charge a good, stiff, extra rate for display and for the insertion of cuts. The fact that they do this prevents a good many people using them, and as a consequence, my ads are very much more prominent, for I always pay the extra price and use the cuts and display." Advertisements should never be prepared in a hurry. There ought to be some particular time set apart in each day, or each week, for the consideration of this question. Do not wait until the last minute, and then write something hurriedly, run- "Do not say you haven't the time." them, and as a consequence, my ads are very much more prominent, for I always pay the extra price and use the cuts and display." Advertisements should never be prepared in a hurry. There ought to be some particular time set apart in each day, or each week, for the consideration of this question. Do not wait until the last minute, and then write something hurriedly, running the risk of making mistakes, and with almost the certainty of failing to get a really good announcement. A bad advertisement in a good paper may possibly do pay. ads; it is mainly a question of taking time enough and giving the matter the requisite amount of thought. Do not say you haven't time, because this part of the business is just as important as any other. In one sense, it is more important, because without it the business cannot amount to very much. 'n't such a hard thing to write good ads. It is main reason for having a good ad campaign. The remain the result amount of thought. Copyright, Charles Austin Bates, New York.

ANY HEAD NOISES? Gentlemen... Being entirely cured of deafness, thanks to your treatment, I will now give you a full history of my case, to be used at your discretion. About five years ago my right ear began to sing, and this kept on getting worse, until I lost my hearing. I underwent a treatment for catarrh, for three months, without any success, consulted a number of physicians, among others, the most eminent ear specialist of this city, who told me that only an operation could help me, and even that only temporarily, that the head noises would then cease, but the hearing in the affected ear would be lost forever. I then saw your advertisement accidently in a New York paper, and ordered your treatment. After I had used it only a few days according to your directions, the noises ceased, and to-day, after five weeks, my hearing in the ear has been entirely restored. I thank you heartily and beg to remain F. A. WERMAN, 739 S. Broadway, Baltimore, Md. Our treatment does not interfere with your usual occupation. Examination and advice free.

I had a doctor, who said it was infammation of the bowels, and that I would never pull him through. When he were injured he was sick. When I saw he was getting worse I jumped in and pulled him made up of ice. I did not know what it was to close my eyes day or night. I gave him a few drops of LAXAKOLA and it relieved him.
