The money season is now at hand, and ; we have waited patiently for the money due us, because we knew you didn't have it during the summer. But it seems that every one ought to be able to pay for his paper during the next month or so. If a man can't pay us during the fall, we had rather not have him as a subscriber. It 1 costs money to run our business, and in order to pay our debts, we must collect what is due us. There is nothing compulsory about taking the paper, and if you take it, we want pay for it. We regret to put a "dun" in the paper, but it takes time and monev to send a statement to each subscriber. There are very many of our subscribers who pay in advance, and to those who pay so promptly we are very grateful. The proportion who owe us money is very small, and some of those have made us many promises to pay. Unless those who are behind pay up, The Herald to them will be discon' " - . e . 1. -? ,?i._ tmucu. i ins is noi meani 101 muse nuu pay promptly.

Browning last Wednesday evening. The i weather was bad but there was a large I crowd present and all report a good time. Colored traded School. We take this method to express our thanks for the kind appreciation shown the colored people of Bamberg by the white citizens and gentlemen of the council. By a resolution they appropriated fifty dollars to help advance the cause of education among the negroes; and they have given personal gifts amounting to about twentV'five dollars, By a resolution the white trustees of the schools of Bamberg have consolidated the two negro schools ami made them one strong central school. They could not have done a better thing for the colored people; for they have been fighting against their advancement for many years. Our people strive agaiust themselves because tliey are ignorant and know not many times what they do. We thank you again for your love for education and the advancement of the negro. Let us as negroes prove ourselves worthy of all our white friends have done for us, and they will opep their hearts wider and do more for us in the future. Let us Jive clean and spotless lives, doing nothing to displease God and cut off the favors" of our friends. Our school will open October 7th, with four teachers to lead the children to higher things. Any parents seeking a place where moral, religious, and intellectual instruction is given will find such at Bamberg. Any teacher who would like to get a position on our staff should apply at once to the trustees. Board can be had for from four to five dollars per month in respectable families. Tuition, primary and middle students, 50c. per month; advanced students, 7ffo. The principal. " --- -- * . ? .. is-:* Cf. W.

Dear Sir:?Certainty linseed oil should be bought at market value; fresh from the oil barrel, and not in ?> ~?aled tin can, with a paint label there 5ey Did it ever occur to you that when you bu}' a thin, liquid paint, that you are paying auywheres from $1-30 to *1.7i? per gallon for a lot of linseed oil? You don't do that with L. & M. paint?it's a semipaste, and you add from J to 1 gallon of oil to every gallon of the paint. Please give The Bamberg Pharmacy an opportunity to quote prices and furnish color cards. Yours sincerely, Longman & Martinez. A Good Citizen to Leave. Major and Mrs. Kavelock Eaves will leave to-morrow for Columbia, wherp Maj. Eaves lias accepted a spieuaiu position with the cotton house of T. H. Wan1 nawaker. It is probable, however, that he will make Spartanburg pr Charlotte bis headquarters. Their many friends : here regret very much to see him go. Maj. Eaves has been depot agent here since : 1890, and has been connected with the de' pot all his life, his father being agent be| fore him. He has been prominent in the " business life of the town, being connec' ted with several enterprises, and has al; ways been a progressive and enterpris: ing citizen. He will be missed in busi1 ness, social, and fraternal circles, and the town can ill-afford to have such men ' leave it. Arrange your plans early to attend the 3 33rd Annual State Fair at Columbia, Oc tober28th to November 1st. Congressional Trimary. A very light vote was polled in the 7th district congressional primary Tuesday. According to the returns received by the daily papers, Lever, of Lexington, leads with 1,809; Brantley, of Orangeburg, second with 1,697; Howell, of Colleton, has 962; Smith, of Sumter, 698; and Judge O. W. Buchanan 368. There are a number of precincts in several counties to be heard from yet, and it is somewhat likely that Brantley will lead, with Lever or Howell second. The outlook now is that the second race will be between Lever and Brantley, but it may turn out to be between Howell and Brantley. The returns are very incomplete, and it is hard to figure 011 the outcome. It seems to be certain, however, that there will be a second race. August Honor Roll. Our honor roll for August was not very large, owing to the great scarcity of money. We trust our subscribers will make up for it during September: T. A. Hadwin, R. F. McMillan, Havelock Eaves, W. H. Faust, Chas. Hammond, Mrs. J. B. Rice, Mrs. S. W. Jones, B. C. Folk, J. P. McElroy, E. C. Bruce, W. A. Riley, * Miss A. E. Bishop, Geo. J. Hiers, W. S. Clayton. Miss Clara Kf arse died at the residence j of Mr. J. A. Chassereau in Ehrhardt last j week. She had been sick for some time. Advertising. ' In one of the leading restaurants of a large city the walls arc hung with signs made up of Bibical quotations. Beneath these are other signs calling attention to the food. In grouping these some wag ! thought to make them impressive b}' hang| ing at the top, "Try a piece of our mince I pie," and just below it, "Prepare to meet j thy God." This was done, and mince pies had no sale there until the signs were | changed. The location was good, the pies were excellent, but the signs were wrong. A change was necessary. That shows the necessity for advertising in the right way. Some stores and some factories need only one sign?"Not dead, but sleeping." Others want just a few to try them. Business is depressed aud they can't alford it. Want to put a gallon of fertilizer on a great desert and expect it to become a garden of plenty. You can't change the course of a river in a day bj; throwing in one little pebble. If vou want customers for your goods, go after them. Everybody reads advertisements. It's not one ad that leaves an impression and turns the tide in your favor. Keep them reading your name, your goods, until it is burned into their memories. We've merely mentioned these things just to get you to thinking. If your ad in The Herald is not paying, it's your fault. You have not changed it, maybe, since you first put it in, although it costs you nothing to change frequently if you want to, and then again, maybe it's because you do not get it up right. Possibly you want to advertise everything in your store at one time. That will not do. Take a specialty and keep it before the people until they become acquainted with the name. Quote prices sometimes. Change your ad at least every four weeks. If you do not feel like you can write a good, catchy ad ask us to assist you. We don't know it all, but we can help you a little. We want ever)' advertiser to get full value for his money, and nothing will be left undone by The Herald to help its patrons and incidenally the public, too.
