WHY does not some one here open
a real estate office? 1t would not re-
quire much capital and we see no
reason why the business would not
be profitable to an agent as well as a
convenience TO the community and
guide for any strangers who may
desire to settle within our borders.
A little judicious advertising would
bring numerous purchasers from 9th
er places, and as the population in
cTeases the value of property is in
creased and the whole community
benefited. Let some Of our business
mengive this matter attention.

METEORIC DIsPLAY.-Prof. Tice
says we are to have, on the night of
November 18th, the most brilliant
meteroric display ever seen since
1888, when, to all intents and pur-
poses, the sky literally rained fire.
The display for this year will not
commence until about one o'clock in
the morning, but the professor
says that the magnifcence Of the
display will more than compensate
for the inconvience of the vigil. If
the display is as brilliant as expected
the University bell will be rung to
notify the people of the fact.

The Law and Medical Depart
ments of the University open with
the Winter Term. The same pro-
fessors that had charge of these de
partments last year will again occupy
their chairs respectively. There are
several advantages to the students
attending these courses over those
reading in the offices of practitioners.
In the first place they here have the
best efforts and entire attention Of
the instructor.
Secondly. They are stimulated by
the daily lecture and recitation.
Thirdly. In the Medical Depart
ment the equipment in apparatus is
good. Adequate provision is made
for the supply of subjects, and the
students have the opportunity of
witnessing the dissections.
DR.. Brooks reputation as sur
geon is excellent, and occasionally
operations are performed in the
presence of the class. The facilities
for clinical instruction are limited,
and perhaps this is not a subject of
regret, as the aim Of the course is
to indoctrinate the student in the
principles of the profession, so that
he may profit more by clinical in
struction afterward.
Prof Brooke, Of the Law Depart
ment, is graduate Of the Univers-
ity of Virginia. His lectures and
instruction last year were of high
character, and were highly spoken of
by all who heard them.
