UNPRECEDENTED ENROLLMENT.
THE CATALOGUE WILL SHOW OVER 500 NAMES.
The attendance for the present academic year has surpassed the most sanguine anticipations. At this time last year the enrollment was 474. This year the attendance footings for the different schools and departments aggregates a grand total of 815, an increase of 65 per cent. It is perfectly safe to say that in two more years the names of those privileged to attend the University of Kansas will number over 1,000.
A new department in the University claims about 200 of the students. Though organized but this year it has developed rapidly and has enrolled the very best quality of students. Most of them are old students in other colleges who were obliged to leave school and are now possessing themselves of the advantages offered by the University Extension courses of the Kansas University. In these classes conducted in Kansas City, Topeka and Olathe there are over 200 applicants for credits, while as many as 150 more are pursuing the courses without any reference to credits and degrees. Five hundred and ninety then represents the number of students on the ground during the year 1891-92 up to December 17th. An analysis of this number will reveal many interesting facts.
The collegiate classes are made up as follows: Seniors 21, Juniors 42, Sophomores 52, Freshman 99 and 50 Specials.

This little bit of pleasantry which we had published in a post-office guide—was not looked upon with favor by Wannamaker—but he could not exclude it from the mails much as he wanted to.
The above list shows very forcibly that the University is not an institution for a certain class. It is distinctively for the people. The large per cent of self-supporting students in the University also gives support to this statement. Information on this point has been ascertained for 471 students. Of this number 130 are entirely self-supporting and 54 partially so.
EXPLANATORY.
Trouble will be Saved
By Following These Suggestions.
Clothing designed for males should be sewed not sealed. If sealed it cannot be entered.
ALL clothing is not rated as first class
ALL clothing is not tatter as brick class.
THE BROWNING, KING & CO. clothing always is
Mains are not hot pants, but pants for the Browning, King & Co. pants are entered as first class.
The following things ought not to go through the males: Bullets, knives, rays,
nitch-forks, hatches, tobacco and whiskey.
The superior address of the Browning, King & Co. clothing is so plainly observable there is never any mistake made in the males that carry it. It can be told at sight.
Males are sometimes injured by being "sucked" carelessly. This occurs oftentimes to the "fast" males. They are most frequently mashed.
If there were no mails, what a newsless world this would be.
If there were no mails, what a newsless world this would be.
Mails are carried by men, horses, wagons, cars and steamer. Some males are carried by bankers. Some by merchants, and some by their wives—when they are milliners.
if there were no males, what a nooseless world this would be.
After all said, this fact is paramount: There is more satisfaction among ALL MALES, big and little, old and young, with the Browning, King & Co, clothing than any clothing sold—tailor-made not excepted—it just fills the bill in every way and that's why people are satisfied with it.
If you try it you will be too.
BROWNING, KING & CO.,
Kansas City, Mo.
