BUFFALO, N. Y., April 25—The Buffalo (N. Y.) Times, in a recent issue commenting on the nomination of the name of Frederick Douglass for a place on the New York University Hall of Fame, made the following editorial comment: "Millions will join in the wish that of the fourteen names to be chosen for place in the Hall of Fame of New York University, the name of Frederick Douglass shall be one. It is to be boped those millions will be so many as to constitute the majority of all to whose attention the topic is brought. Apart from the fact that on the cold and windy day of April 25, 1865 and personality of Douglass constitute an ample title to the honor, the official and cultural tribute to his memory would have a splendid effect on the paramount racial problem of this country. By the Douglass, nomination, for an time, the name of a man of Nebraska and personality of Douglass constitute for Hall of Fame enrollment. Assignment of this distinction to the great orator would be welcomed by colored people, both South and North, with an enthusiasm that can better be imagined than described. It would sooth sensitiveness, it would quiet animosities, it would calm the heart and pride at this time when the valiant servant of black regiments, on the battlefields of France is so vivid in the recollection of the country."

The Great Blood Purifier
Everybody knows that rich, red blood is absolutely necessary to good health. When the blood is impure - tainted with poisons - it cannot supply the brain, nerves, muscles and vital organs with the proper nourishment, and the whole system becomes run down and weakened. Such conditions, when neglected, or if not properly treated, cause much suffering and eventually result seriously.
To remedy these conditions of diseased blood you must remove the cause

No matter how enthusiastic a fisherman he may be, the man who suffers the tortures of Rheumatism, Gout or Lumbago cannot enjoy his favorite sport. This is also true of other pleasures, such as golf, tennis or even those enjoyments which require no physical exertion.
Likewise, the man who is suffering from some condition due to poisoned blood, manifested by eruptive, itching, skin diseases, ulcers, scrofula and so on, is miserable, half sick—no pleasure to himself or his friends.
Are any of the pleasures of life denied you because of Rheumatism, Gout, Eczema, Scrofula or other conditions caused by impure blood? If so, you should take immediate steps to get relief—get a bottle of

—take a treatment that will help nature eliminate the poisons. Such a remedy is Plough's Prescription C-2223.
To assist the liquid treatment, it is advisable that the liver, kidneys and bowels function properly. Plough's 2223 Liver Pills are recommended for this purpose. They act gently and do not nauseate or gripe. One to two pills are the usual dose, dependent upon the patient.
Plough's Prescription C-2223 was originally a doctor's prescription. It was successfully used by a successful physician in his private practice, and only after retiring did he permit the formula to be supplied ready prepared. So great is the faith of the manufacturers in the wonderful merit of Plough's Prescription that they guarantee two $1.50 bottles—they authorize every druggist to refund your $3.00 if you do not secure sufficient relief to justify your continuance of the treatment.
Plough's Prescription C.2223 can be supplied you by any good druggist at $1.50 a bottle; the Liver Pills for 25c, or both will be sent you direct on receipt of $1.75. Write Dept. RBC for sample of Plough's Liver Pills, literature and a 1920 Almanac.

Madame Murray Stewart, as you can see by the picture, has a soft, light, smooth, beautiful complexion. You, too, can have the same soft, light, smooth skin by applying Golden Brown Ointment to your face, neck, arms and hands. I urge our people to stop fooling themselves by using so-called "skin whitener." We can't be white. LOOK YOUR BEST AND BE PROUD OF YOUR RACE.
Golden Brown Ointment is honest. It will brighten or lighten up our dark or sallow skin, take out the creases and wrinkles, remove plumps, blackheads, liver spots, bumps, tan, freckles, eruptions and stops liching skin. Heals eczema, ring worm and blotches of all kinds. Golden Brown Ointment is quickly out selling all other, skin preparations because it is honest and don't claim to do miracles.

SIGHT RESTORED TO THE BLIND!
Little did we think some years ago that such miraculous cures would be witnessed so soon. Some of us were awaiting the millennial and some looked for some to come from afar—forgetting that the Master is ready and willing to act in and for the interest of the masses as soon as the human heart is right and years to do service for God and man. Read what he says about the harvest being truly ripe and the sending of laborers into the vineyards. Some believe that Jesus Christ is far away, but I say nay. He is ever nigh thee. He hears all we say, sees all we do and more than that. He knows our thoughts afar off. Read and ponder these things in your heart as did "Mary" when the Angel had talked with her and probably we will be able in-His name to do thee good or some one you may know, providing they exercise faith.
Personally speaking. I have given myself entirely over to Him who has power to save, to heal and through me (not myself alone), there are many who are, being, restored to health again and have been sent on their wav rejoicing. All we ask is a fair and impartial trial and in His name we are sure good results will be obtained, provided you follow our instructions.

How much should I give to make this a better world?
ACERTAIN man in New York filled out his income tax report.
It showed an income so large that his tax was 53%. And his total gifts to church and charity for the year were $148.
Think of it—thousands spent for luxuries and pleasure for himself; and $148 to leave the world a little better than he found it!
Most of us do better than that; but not so very much better.
Our average daily gift for all church causes is
—less than we spend for daily papers
—less than a local telephone call
—less than a third of the day's car fare
—less than 3 cents a day

No wonder that 80% of the ministers of America are paid less than $20 a week. No wonder that the church hospitals turn away thousands of sick people a year. No wonder that China has only one doctor for every 400,000 people. No wonder that every church board and charity society is forever meeting deficits, forever passing the hat.
It isn't because we are selfish; it isn't because we don't want to help. It's just because no one has ever put up a great big program to us, and asked us to think of the work of the church in a systematic businesslike way.
The Intgrchurch World Movement represents the united program of thirty denominations. They have surveyed their whole task, no business could have done it better.
They have budgeted their needs; no business could have a more scientific budget. They have united to prevent the possibility of waste and duplication. At least a million dollars will be saved by the fact that thirty individual campaigns are joined in one united effort.
And they come to the men or women who love America to you—this week asking you to use them as the channel through which a certain definite part of your income can be be applied to make this a better world.
Only you can determine what part of your income that should be.
It's a good time right now to answer that question. We're passing through the world just once; how much better will the world be because you passed through?

Sessions to Last Three Weeks
The General Conference will be in session three weeks. Many leading men will be asked to address the conference, among them will be Dr. Le-Roy Bundy, who was recently released from the Illinois State Prison, where he was serving a sentence for alleged participation in the East St. Louis riot.
Among the special outstanding features that will take place at the General Conference, will be the meeting of a large body of leading women from every section of the connection. These women will be there to lobby for the passage of a law to give women the suffrage in the church. Among those who will be prominent in this regard will be, Mrs. Mary F. Handy, widow of the late Bishop Handy of Baltimore; Mrs. Sandy Simmons and Mrs. Wm. D. Chappelle of South Carolina; Mrs. W. T. Vernon and Mrs. G. L. Jackson of Tennessee; Mrs. W. H. Heard, Mrs. J. G.

The Connecional Council of the A. M. E. Church will hire headquarters and will in a great measure act as the indicator and simplifier of the work to be done during the general conference. Sessions of this council will be held daily, and the delegates and others will have opportunity to give expression concerning the real needs of the church, so that when the General Conference is in session, the legislation will have been shaped and focused, thus making it easy-for the delegates to arrive at conclusions. Dr. J. G. Robinson is the president of the council, and will preside at the sessions. Dr J. A. Lindsey of Georgia is secretary and Dr H. N. Arnett of Deleware is chairman of the Finance Committee.

As the time draws near to the convening of the State Convention which meets at Kansas City, May 5th, the question of a Negro, as one of the big four, is attracting more attention.
Never before has the Negro been so earnest about the things he is entitled to as at present.
It has been reported that some of the leaders of the Republican party are very much interested in seeing a woman elected as one of the big four, in recognition of her new enfranchisement and the same crowd is saying a Negro, as has been the practice in the past, must be satisfied with alternates. Of course, none of them have had the nerve to tell us that because they know we would ask for their line of reasoning.
But at any rate, as we have said before, the Negro is entitled to this recognition because of his forty years of loyalty, to the Republican party in this state, and with our increasing voting strength that is responsible for the success of the party at all elections, we want to ask, can the Republican leaders afford! so deny us this just recognition at this time!

The Urban League in this city is rendering a much needed service and one that is different from existing organizations. The League was organized September, 1919, and moved into its present quarters, 2329 Market street, last December.
The Industrial Department has always placed up to April 1st over 700 men and women in suitable employment, some occupying positions herefore denied colored people. The Neighborhood Department is introducing recreational activities in the schools in the afternoons and evenings. Classes in dramatics, folk dancing, sewing, art, and quiet games are held at two of the schools. Because of the elasticity of the program, the Urban League is in position to assist existing organizations, in this connection it has taken over the Dental Clinic at Special School No. 6 in operation with the Board of Education. This is the only institution of

Recently the League has added the Big Stater Department which will endeavor to help those girls and women who show wayward tendencies. The aim will be prevention rather than correction, and cases will be received from the various institutions of the city in connection with the regular department. The League is called upon to adjust difficulties arising in industrial plains, to programs and policies affecting social programs of the Negro, and to hold meetings from time to time, focusing public attention upon community problems.
The League is supported by the Provident Association and is affiliated with the National Urban League with its thirty-five branches in the northern and western cities. The League is rendering service of the timable value to this community, and the Argna argues the hearty suppor of the Negro citizens of this community in this movement.

IN MEMORIAM.
In loving memory of our dear beloved mother. Selena Jane Howell, who departed this life one year ago; April 28, 1919.
Home at rest, so sweetly sleeping.
In thy Father's tender care;
Would you please rest?
Where there is no pain or weeping.
None on earth can harm you there.
Some day, some time, our eyes shall
see
When friends call—close, personal friends—you are always glad to bid them welcome whether the home is fixed up or not. But there is a whole lot more satisfaction in having things fixed right—this you will admit without aggument.
Rest in peace thy cares are ended,
Rest in peace, thy work is done;
Your are gone where those who love
you.
Even for the casual callers, to say nothing of those who spend the night or a week end, one likes to have a few extra nice pieces of furniture scattered about over the house just as a sort of index, as it were, to the good taste of the occupants.
Soon are coming, one by one. Sadly missed by five daughters, two sons, grand children and friends.
IN MEMORIAM.
In loving memory of our dearly beloved wife and mother. Love Phenix, who passed, away one year ago today, May 1, 1919.
Have you such furniture? Look around thru the different rooms! Take an inventory! Have you? At Eleventh and Market in your own good old City of St. Louis is a very unusual furniture store in many particulars, of which we will mention here just three:

No eye can see me weep;
But my silent tears are shed,
When others are asleep.
Off to the grave I not thought wander,
To the grave not thought way;
Where we laid our darling wife and

Just one year ago today.
How we miss your smiling face.
But you left us to remember;
None on earth can take your place.
A happy home we once enjoyed,
How sweet the memory still;
But death has left a loneliness.
The world can never fill.
"Gone but not forgotten by her loving husband, daughter and son-in-law,

IN MEMORIAM.
In loving memory of our dear daughter and sister, Rosie Wilson, who entered into rest two years ago, April 25, 1918. Two years have passed, our hearts still sore. As time goes on, we miss you more; We mow you suffer, heard your sighs. With aching hearts and weeping eyes.
Now, for your own sake; for your family's sake; for the sake of your friends, your pride and your pocket-book, let us advise that you get acquainted with our store right away.
We saw you sinking hour by hour,
Yet could not may death's awful

But now she calmly sleeps at last,
