The problem Of quick and substan
tlal luncheon for wash day is one over
which many a housekeeper fumes and
irets, when the whole question could
be settled by having the meat andveg.
etables that would be needed cooked
the day before. With a little cold
roast beef or lamb, or a boiled plate
piece OF beef, many delicious dishes
could be made in fifty; and instead Of
the hot vegetables which takes SO
much time to cook. a salad could be
served Of the cold ones.
Boiled Beef With Tomato Sauce.
Cut the beef, Fat and all, in thick
slices. Then heat together a table.

Of good tomato catsup and a cuptul Of
stock soup or gravy. When this is
smoking hc., lay III the slices Of beef,
turn them and add the salt and pepper
that would be needed. Any cold meat
may be used in this way, and veal or
mutton would be especially good 60

An appropriate salad could be Of
boiled white potatoes, sliced and
warmed in a hot vinegar and oil dress.

Cabbage and Cheese This delicious
dish may be prepared to all but the
last touch the day before. but 1t must
be baked on the one on which y is
eaten, as It's chief charm is the fresh

Boil a white cabbage in two wa.

Idle Cars Diminishing.

On Aug. II, according to the weekly
bulletin of the American Railway
ISOLATION. the net surplus of idle cars
on the lines of the United States and
Canada stood at 1859, a decrease of
29,102. or about 28.S per cent. from two
weeks before. Decreases were not con-
fined to any one section of the coun-
try, but the general awakening in
freight activity which became marked
at the first of the month was con-
tinued. The middle west reported the
largest reduction in car surplus, the
need for carriers shrinking the supply
about 81 per cent. Box cars were par
ticularly in demand. The decrease in
the past month has brought the total
far below the figures for the CORE
spending period of last year. It is be-
lieved that a shortage Is inevitable. and
the committee on relations between
railroads has already warned shippers
and the roads to expedite freight ship
ments much IS possible.

ECONOMIC SHORT CUTS
FOR THE HOUSEHOLDER

Always use iron pipe for sewer con-
nections outside your house if there are
any trees near where you lay our pipe

to be injured by tree roots, and then
the sewage is likely to escape into the
ground. to the possible injury of the
health of the occupants of the house.
fuse Iron Pipe.
Few houses are built now without
providing means to carry the water
from the roofs and cutters to the
street Always use iron pipe where
such a drain passes underneath the
sidewalk. even If the rest of the line
is tile. Tile is much thicker than iron.
and in order to reach grade at the curb
line the pipe must necessarily be close
to the stones. Iron will allow a great
er amount of space, and 1t will also
not be broken, as will tile If the stones
settle upon it. or If. in relaying them.
tools, etc, strike against it, 1t is
well, also, to use iron where the line
rises out of the ground to meet the
house leaders, and where it reaches the
curb, for tile is very often broken at
these points.
Electric Light Wires.
Electric light wires are unsightly
when they come from pole in the

One of the principle advantages of
employing an architect is that both
the planning and the building of
home are reduced to system In this
profession, as in all other professions
trades involving a multitude of de-
tails, system means economy. Few
people have the slightest idea as to
how much thought and time Is put into
the preparation Of the plans and speci-
fications for the construction of a mod
ern home. Give your architect time.
Plans cannot be made with a rubber
stamp. Every home is a problem in
itself. and it takes time to work out
the best solution of it,

HAMMOND
CONTRACTORS
INCORPORATE

Through the Inauguration of two
of the large constructing firms in
Hammond a $4,000 corporation, to be
known as the Interstate Construction
company, has been organized.
The firms which make up the ANAL
gamated concern are the Lavene Bros.
Construction company and the firm of
O'Shea and Shea The president of the
new company is Frank O'Shea and the
secretary and treasurer is John Lavene.
The new company expects to do con-
tracing in all its branches, from rail-
road building to street building. 1t
will be one of the largest firms in the
city and is expected to extend its ac-
tivities to all of the cities of the region
in Illinois and Indiana.

tops of the posts should be painted be-
fore zipn is applied. You can use tin
instead, but zinc is better. If you use
an inexpensive picket fence for rear
portions of your lot, have the top rail
(the rail into which the nails which
hold the pickets are driven on the up
per part of the pickets) cover the top
of the fence posts. This is a very SIM
pie and inexpensive method of protect
ing fence posts with this style of fence
Copper Preferable.
Copper or lead, and not tin. should
only be used for the connections from
the cutters to the leaders. Twenty
years of lead has convinced the
writer that 1t is a very good article.
but lately copper has been secured at
reasonable cost, and. it Is not so
much affected by changes of tempera-
ture as lead, it can be used to advan-
tage: but do not use tin. for tin rusts in
a very short time.
Your Kitchen Chimney.
If you possibly can, place your kitch-
en- chimney outside your house. In
summer Gas the writer has found to his
cost kitchen chimney will unpIeas-
| antly warm any room through which
1t passes.
Be sure to specify that all outside
woodwork such as columns, etc, shall
! be well primed at the ends zefore it is
| put in place. So many times, the writ
er has found. this has not been done,
especially in new houses. Without this
precaution, the rain-water soon works
its way underneath, and so attacks the
unprotected wood. which then rapidly
| decaps from the inside. Often columns
are seen which look sound, but. If they
| are pierced with a sharp instrument
near the base, it will be found that they
| are entirely rotted at the bottom, the
paint on the outside alone preserving
| thin layer of wood beneath it. Sc
/ wherever ratings join to pedtstals, OF
| columns rest upon them, or, in fact
! whenever two pieces of wood are plac
| ed together in outside work, see tha
such joints are carefully primed be
! fore they set up. Pure white LEAD
and the finest grade of linseed oil arr
the best materials for printing.
Iron Columns Superior.
Brick piers are usually used for sup
porting floor beams in cellars, but irol
columns of small diameter, filled witt
cement put in under pressure, are vast
ly superior. They allow much NOR
