The profits of this institution do not go to build up the private fortunes of any individual. The President, with the other officers of the College, receive a fixed salary. So will the Head Steward and other officers of the Boarding Department, when the Hall in contemplation for that purpose, is completed. The Surplus Revenue, from tuition and boarding, will then be appropriated to defray all the expenses of Minister's daughters and orphan children, while at school.

Boarding, for the present, in respectable families, can be had for $10.00 per month.

For further particulars as to mode and times of payment, course of study, rules, etc., address the President, Rev. J.E. Cobb, Arkadelphia, Ark.
