Buying Red Cross Stamps.

Among the first of the Hammond in
stitutions to buy generously of the
Red Cross Seals are the Enterprise Bed
company and the Hammond Distilling g
company, each of whom took ten dol
lars worth of the stamps
Mrs. j. NJ Turner chairman OF the
charity committee of the Hammond
Woman's club. who has charge of the
stamp sale this year. Is in hopes that
the other factories and business houses
will respond just as promptly accord
ing to their ability. Much of the tu-
berculosis is directly traceable to un-
healthy conditions under which eni-
ployes must frequently work, and in
asmuch as the proceeds from the sale
of the Red Cross seals is used to eradi-
cate the white plague" 1T is deemed
proper that employers should cooper
ate.
The seals are sold under the aus
pices of the Hammond Woman's club
and 75 per cent of the money is to be
spent at home for the specific purpose
of lighting tuberculosis
In former years only ten per cent
was allowed to remain at home and
the balance went into state fund. but
now only 25 per cent will go into ths
state fund

peals for help in feminine voices yes

Crumpacker was awakened from sleep
by the noise of some person in the
house. she invest gated and saw the
shadow of an intruder. She raised the
window and gave the alarm. but before
neighbors could come to the Crum-
packer home the fellow made his es-
cape. 1t was found thet he had col
lected pile of Mr.. Crumpacker's eldth-
ing and other valuables and was just
about to leave. IT is believed that he
did not succeed in getting away with
anything. He left as calmly as If he
had been well known in the house.

ton Gun club case
It was but short time ago that
thieves broke into Congressman Crum-
packers house at Valparaiso.

bURNHAM IS A
LOVELY LITTLE SPOT

Following a special meeting OF the
Burnham there was an impromptu
fight pulled off in neighboring saloon
in which Chief of Police Johnny Pat
ton is said to have demonstrated his
pugilistic ability on the person of
Judge Wittenburg
Dive Started Trouble.
The trouble all occurred over an al
legged dive which is being run in the
north end OF town by John Reynolds,
recently driven out of Hammond.
Reynolds is said to have police protec-
ton.
The trouble started when Trustee
Gapczewicz protested to the board
against the dive. He charged Johnny
Patton with permitting the place to
run and Patton in turn laid the blame
on Wittenburg.
1t Made Things Move.
Gapczewicz made the threat that un-
less the dive was cleaned out that
Burnham would have a new police
man. This stirred up things in great
shape.
One report is to the effect that In
thee fight which followed cuspidors
were thrown, windows were smashed
and chairs were upset. The judge
came out of the melee with shine
on one of his lamps" 1t is now re-
ported that an attempt will be raade
to have the sheriff take hold Of the
Burnham situation

CHIEF LANDS
HIS man

Chief of Police John Okraj of West
Hammond finally landed John Nowow
ieski, charged with stealing $475 from
Mike Andrak in the saloon of Joe Mix
neviks-
Nowowieski was in Chicago for some
time, and finally returned to Hammond
He had only little over 81 on his per-
son when found. Chief Okraj is not at
all certain that he was the guilty per-
son.
The case is developing into quite a
mystery. There were a number OF
hangers-on in the saloon at the time
the long wallet, containing the money,
was stolen
Each of them have been questioned.
The chief has spent a great deal of
time on the case. and hopes soon to
be able to lay his hands on the real
culprit.

WE'RE YOU LUCKY
OR UNLUCKY?

Did anything unfortunate happen to
you today?
Friday 18th, you know.
The double hoodoo is supposed to be
working today. Friday itself is con-
sidered the unlucky day Of the week
but when Friday also happens to be
the 18th of the month. some people who
are superstitious In this matter would
really be disappointed If nothing unto
ward would happen to them.
Added to this the figures in 1912 add
up 13.
Then again there Is the awful per-
son who has no time for hoodoos, who
would deliberately walk under a ladder
right after a black cat had crossed his
path.

SANDWICHES

ROLL SANDWICHES.-Wrap fresh
bread in a cloth which has been
wrung out of cold water, using dry
cloth to cover it on the outside. Let
1t stand for several hours. When
ready to use, cut off the crust and
cut in thin slices. Spread with any
preferred paste.
MEAT SANDWICHES.-Nearly all
kinds of meat may be used for this
purpose If cut in nice, thin slices.
Rare roast beef may be seasoned with
salt. pepper and tomato catsup. Thin
slices Of dill pickles added give more
flavor. Chicken and turkey always
make dainty sandwiches.
CLUB SANDWICH.-This is an ex-
pensive sandwich to buy, but does not
cost much If made at home. 1t will
almost constitute a whole meal. Toast
the bread a light brown and not hard.
Cut in triangles or diamonds either
before or after the filing has been
put in. Make the sandwich two or
three stories high, according to indi-
vidual taste. Filling-A lettuce leaf,
then a thin slice of breast of chicken:
then very thin boiled ham or bacon.
The finish may suit the taste. A
pickle or a stuffed or plain olive Is
commonly used.

One Specific for Neuresthenia
ny A PHYSICIAN,

that requires little thought and
much physical exertion, and hat will
keep him In the open. In a word,
he must do farm work, or something
else that will impose such conditions
as are imposed by farm work.
If he has the courage to break away
and change his work thus for six
months or a year the chances are
that he will be rewarded by a full re-
turn to health, and that he can go
back to his work with enough reserve
power and gumption to carry him on
without a relapse into the old condi-
tion-perhaps with an increased earn
ing power that will 500 make more
than good the loss entailed by his
temporary change of work.
In lieu of farm work or other work
in the open a walking tour is to be
recommended. Such a trip brings
change of scene and physical exhaus-
ton with freedom from worry. good
appetite and sound sleep that these
imply.
But change of work and change OF
scene won't do any good. of course.
If the old habits of thought persist.
You must begin all over, mentally,
too. You must forget the old work
n worry and think of other things.

TO PERFUME LINGERIE

The small articles that are washed at
home may be most daintily perfumed If
a small piece of orris root is added to
the water they are boiled in. 1t may
seem an undertaking to boil these, but
II, the handkerchiefs are placed man
enameled saucepan sufficiently large to
hold them and the water necessary, they
can be boiled quite well over a spirit
lamp or paraf1n stove. They need only
be boiled for ten minutes. II, however,
the articles are tinted, and cannot be
treated in this way, boil a small piece
of orris roo in the water and use 1t
for rinsing the blouses, handkerchiefs
etc. When dry they will be most daintily
perfumed with a faint odor of violets.
Our Observation-Disclosures were great
adopts at this pertaining of clothes, and
used orris root when washing all bed
clothes and the clothes they wore. They
further perfumed the presses and cof-
fers with wonderful scent sachets made
with various dried flowers, roots and
gums. Perhaps this pertaining has done
much to keep these wonderful stores of
linen and silks that have come down to
our time. An old eighteenth century
book OF simples I have declares that
the seeming Of clothes with gums and
sweet savors" not only keeps away the
moths, but protects them from becoming
moldy, finally winding up with the
statement that clothes thus perfumed
might be left in the docks for many
years and suffer no injury.

ANSWERING

When you receive an invitation to
a wedding the main point to observe
is to reply in the same manner that
characterizes the note received. II
you are invited by an informal note
reply in the same kind. If a formal
invitation be given, the reply must be
similar, using your own full name
and writing in the third person" as
the grammarians say.
Invitations to q church wedding
need no reply. 1t is your own loss
accommodation; but all invitations
that are at the home of the bride and
that designate that a certain provi-
sion must be made to entertain guests
should be answered. Those, also.
that have the letters RI. s. v. p" a
French phrase meaning Answer, If
you please" must be replied to. In
other words, an offer of hospitality
should not be ignored.
Cards to a reception following a
wedding need not be answered. The
presence of the invited one is an ac-
ceptance. If, however, you cannot
attend, you should send, either by
hand or mail, two visiting cards ad-
dressed to the parents of the bride.
The formal acceptance will be writ
ten as follows:
Miss Marion Blank accepts with
pleasure the kind invitation of Mr..
md Mrs. George Gray to the we'd
ding of their daughter on Monday
afternoon, June fourth, at four
o'clock.
If o cannot accept, your refusal
should be written thus:
Miss Marion Blank regrets her in
ability to accept the kind invitation
of Mr.. and Mrs. George Gray to the
wedding Of their daughter on Mon
day afternoon, June fourth, at four
o'clock.
Invitations to anniversary recep-
tions do not require written accept
ances. If you are going to attend,
your presence is an acknowledgment.
