\ NEW OPENING FOR COL
ORED PEOPLE.

At the recent meeting of the
Business Mems League, one les
son was brought out that Color
ed people should heed. That
lesson is that industrial pur-
suits and not politics offers the
best and surest means of ad-
vaHcement any persons
would like to be in business but
they lack the necessary capital.
One of the best paying busi-
nesses and one that requires very
little capital to begin with is the
business of canvasser or agent.
We know of one article that is
bringing rich rewards to agents.
We refer to Black-No-More the
celebrated preparations for
changing the skin of the Negro.
There is gold mine right
within the reach of any enter
nrising man or woman who is so
fortunate rs to secure the agency
for BIack-NO-MOre in his or her
locality. Colored people of re-
fnement now find this prepara-
ton a necessity and it is only a
question Of time when all who so
desire viii possess a white com

FHE BUSINESS LEAGUE.

The National Business Mems
League held its annual conyen-
tiOn and thereby added another
chapter to its life Of usefulness
and worth. a few years back
there were some apparent well
founded misgivings concerning
the final purpose and length of
life of this organization. / have
heard these questions seriously
discussed by men who are now
numbered among the Staunchest
members of the League. In this
same connection | have heard
men question the honest inten-
tiOn of president Washington.
These men at the time | speak of,
could not be made to see how
the principal of school could
successfully direct the affairs OF
a business mems organization
Time has proven how. OF all
our national organizations the
Business Mems League shows the
most vitality. There are TIVE
reasons why, in my opinion, that
it shows the most vitality and
also possesses the better ele
ments of character Politics and
the chance for political prefer
ment can not reasonably provide
an excuse to determine the
shape of the Leagues policy and
attitude on matters of public
moment. The president and his
advisers, in the main, are not i'm
mediately interested in active
politics. A very unusual com
binatiOn of men and matters
But a great good is growing Out
of the situation which, in al
probability, will bring increasing
good returns. For one | re
jOice iii all the things which have
been fathered by Booker Z
