We frequently hear the claim "some

often see an actual demonstration of
of the principle like the display of
Lion Coffee premiums now on exhibi-

Here are many valuable articles, all
given free for the lion heads cut from
Lion Coffee wrappers. These are not
cheap articles, but comprise clocks,
umbrellas, watches, gold rings and
jewelry, besides many things useful
and ornamental in the household or
will be enjoyed by the children. Lion
Coffee fully deserves the popularity
which it has gained, because Of its SUI
perior strength and flavor.

ONE GREAT ORGANIZATION ENOUGH.

We are taking on too many alleged
"nationaI protective" organizations tor
the well being of the race. This thing
of a squad of men getting together at
numerous points, and forming nation
al body, Identical in purpose with
others already in existence looks very
much like scheme to make personal
profit out of the wees of an oppressed
people, and is prejudicial to the success
Of really worthy enterprises. Too
many of us are engaged in planning
excuses to beg money and impose upon
the credulity of generous people who
feel kindly disposed toward us This is
all wrong, and if not stopped, our
cause will be discredited in the eyes of
the country. Every mothers son caught
soliciting funds in the name of the
race, without proper warrant. should
be landed behind the bars 50 speedily
that his head would be made to swim
There is no sense In multiplying Or
CARNATIONS and thus confusing our
friends. One national protective league
Is sufficient The best devised and
most systematic organization seems to
us to be the Afro.American Council.
Strongly supported, it will prove a
tower of strength and accomplish more
good than dozen competing concerns.
Those who are ambitious to lead. will
have plenty of latitude in state branch
es of the national body. These are
practically autonom ous in their gov
ernment and are privileged to act as
they think best to meet local needs
Let us have one strong national league
The CounCiI-and let it be strength
ened and sustained by auxiliaries in
every village, city, county and state
oil over the land. Let personal vanity
be sacrificed to the general good.

This is a high compliment, but
those who know Mr.. Wsshingson's

agree that it is no more than he de-
serves, and are confident that bis
