desired by any community, l'erhaps
Richmond may wish to add this to her

The community, which may secure
the location of this college, will be re
quired lo donate grounds suitable for a
college campus, and funds sufficient
for the erection of suitable buildings
for the college, located at a heathlul
plaoe, easy ol access, vith good tem

What Is a Suiptui?
The New York World fays a great
deal in a small space on a surplus
yielding tariff In this:
IA surplus is that which exists in
excess of needs.
The government had last yeir s
surplus revenue of f?u:i,uc,i.iMi. It
will have this year a surplus of 3110,
OOU.OIIO.
t This revenue Is produced hv a tar
iff. A tariff is a tax. Tne surplus rev
enue Is therefore pro tucid by a sur-
nltia t.rlfT or u turilT In mt.iii.i itt the

When Shall we Slop Advertising.
Ten succsiasful biiaine.'S .uc'i were
asked when, iu their j i-t k" o-1 1 1. it
would do to "stop adverLiaii.g." We
oommend their answers to those busi
ness men who do not believe iu pub
lishing their wares.
1st, "When population ceases to
multiply, and the generations thai
crowd on after you, and never heard
uf you, stop coming ou."
2nd. "When you have convinced
everybody whose life will touch yours,
that you have better goods tor tne
price thau they cau ever get any
where else.
3rd. "When you percieve It to be
the rule that men w ho never advertise
are outstripping their neighbors iu the
same line of business "
4th. '-When men stop ni..Ui!ir for
tunes right iu your very suria' sulci)
through the discreet use of this uiigli
ty agent.
Dili. "When you can forget the
words ot the shrewdest aud most sue
