Big Endowment for Upper Iowa.

Upper Iowa University's campaign
to add $l5C, 600 to its endowment fund
seems likely TO end successfully very
soon. Already more than $40, 600 has
been pledged through the efforts of
President Shanklin and others, and
the remaining $500 or less will
probably be secured within few
months, probably by the time of the
commencement season. While on his
recent trip to Washington President
Shanklin secured subscriptions to the
amount of $500, number of the
Iowa men in congress donating liber-
ally, among them Senators Dolliver
and Allison and Representative Con-
ner and Haugen Senator Dolliver
was also of great assistance in acquain-
ting President Shanklin with men of
means in the east from whom liberal
sums were secured. Many friends of
the institution have indicated their
intention TO give, and from now on
the work of President Shankhn will
be largely of getting them to sub
scribe for specific amounts. There is
no doubt at all that the entire $3.50, :
600 will be pledged at an early date.

Save One Hundred Dollars on Piano.

The 500 that it ordinarily takes to
sell piano by means Of local canvas
sers can be saved by getting your
piano direct from the worlds largest
music house, Lyon d Hesly, Chicago.
Lyon q Healy often sell from 20 to

the cost of handling this immense
business is very little greater than
that of "a smaller concern selling only
few pianos a month, hence the great
advantage of dealing with them.
The freight on a piano from Chicago
to this city is only few dollars and
you run absolutely no risk in ordering
from Lyon & Healy. for If the piano
they send You is not satisfactory, they
agree TO pay freight both ways.
