Pianos at a Discount of 20 to 40 Per
Cent.

When Lyon & Healy of Chicago
bought for cash the entire retail stocks
of three leading Chicago piano houses,
viz. The Thompson Music Co., the
Healy Music Co.. and the F. o..
Theatre Co., the entire piano trade
of the United States wondered what
Lyon & Healy could do with such
a vast collection Of fine instruments
in addition to their own big stock, for
these are no cheap factory pianos, but
pianos of makes of the highest reputa-
ton.
What Lyon & Healy have done to
mark all these pianos, and there are
hundreds of them, at a discount OF 20
to 40 per cent. The response upon
the part Of the public is marvellous.
IF you know the names of good
standard makes of pianos and the
prices always paid, you will need no
second invitation to write TO Lyon q
Healy, n Adams street, Chicago, for
lists and terms. For you can secure
genuine $500 upright for $3.50, or
other bargains in proportion.
Lyon & Healy give their own guar
antee with every one of these pianos
no matter whether it is from the
Thompson, or the Healy. or the
Thea re stock. Nothing like this OPP
portunity has ever been given to
music teachers, students and music
lovers heretofore.

A DEXTEROUs SPEECH.

That was very dexteruus speech
OF Mr.. Bryan's. He laid especial
stress upon the fact that he was and
would be. in the event of his elec.
tion. as much bound by what the
platform failed to say as by what n
ala say. Thus, without m terms re-
tracing or abandoning any views OF
conviction heretofore expressed nv
him relative TO free silver" gov
eminent ownership" or initiative
and refrendom," he gives very plain
and distinct assurances against re-
viving or advocating any one OF
these If he should become Presi-
dent.
But he was especially dexterous
and skillful in turning Mr.. Taft's
words and admissions against him
and his party. Mr.. Taft. having ad-
mitted the existence OF abuses
that should be corrected. will find
1t difficult to show that his party
tat has controlled the Government
for nearly fifty years, is not respon-
sible for these abuses. 1t will
likwise be difficult for him to show
that the party that is directly re-
sponsible for these abuses" can he
trusted to reform them. II is not
easy TO answer satisfactorily the
question, why did you pursue a
policy that fostered and develope.'
these abuses? and why. with all
three departments of government in
your hands. have you not taken
measures TO correct them before
now?"
Having failed for years to correa.
these admitted abuses, though in
full possession of all the powers Of
government, what assurance has the
public that you can or will do so If
continued in the possession OF tn S
power?
The trouble is. as Mr. Bryan
points out, neither Mr.. Taft nor Mr..
Roosevelt can compel his party to
mend its methods. change it's ways.
or reform It's abuses Richmond
