A Good Way to Save Money.

There are but few will acknowledge
that a dollar a week invested in F. w.
Banner & Co.'S Piano Club is so much
money saved. as each and every member
is sure to get full value for their money
dollar for dollar-and the S1.00 per
week in Piano would often otherwise
be spent where there would be nothing
to show for it, so that many, in the end,
will be $3.50 better off than they would
have been had they never become mem
beers of this Club.
