War. The force that slavery played
in producing this crisis is traced from
it's inception to it's abolition. While the

over miles of country roadway.
The decisive battles of the Civil War
are reproduced in faithful detail and
you see these conflicts fought again.

years ago. Cities were built up only
to be destroyed to lend force and YER

that is as real as if you were an eye

Holding the great effects in tether is a

heroic deeds Of personal valor.

OIL BURNER IS
MOST EFFICIENT
Heating Appliance Uses Many
Varieties of Fuel,

Not only are new home owners in
stalling oil burners, but those who
have used coal are now putting in oil
burners and arranging for the use of
oil only. Recently a man who was
building a house in one of the best
residence sections installed an oil
burner after he had watched for a
year the operation of one belonging
to a neighbor.
w. D. Long of W. y. Long & Co.
reports the best business last month
his firm has enjoyed since 1t was es-
tabushed. This firm carries the OIL
O-Matic oil burner and has had better
success with it than with any other
burner.
This is a recommendation for the
Oll-OMatic burner, since this com
pany is one Of the pioneer companies
in the oil burner business.
"One thing encoura g1ng installation
Of oil burners in heating plants is the
fact the best of authorities are pre-
dieting a reduction in the cost Of OIL
Long said. Even now. oil is the
cheapest, cleanest and most capable
of keeping an even temperature of all
fuels
Our burner can be placed in any
furnace or heating plant. Even large
apartments obliged to operate huge
boilers are using nothing but oil. Our
burner will use any kind Of oil from
kerosene to crude oil and this varia-
ton makes It more adaptable for the
needs Of each owner"

wife an endless amount Of trouble
The ruinous bull moth, as near as
it can be traced. was imported from
Europe at the beginning of the World
War Since it has done a great
amount of damage to clothing. The
larvae form in closets. trunks, etc. In
less than seven days the trouble be-
gins. The moths are capable Of ruin
ing a suit in two days.
The silver moth, commonly called
the fish moth, Is a pest that inhabits
concrete walls and comes up into the
carpets.
The third pest. the cock roach,
breeds and turks around water pipes
and frequently makes it's home i'll
cupboards, where it feeds on sweets
1t likes offices where there Is a supply
of stationery so it can eat the gum
used to stick the flaps of envelopes.
The fourth pest, the bed bug, is
sometimes called the chinch bug. It is
probably the worst of all the insects,
as it inhablts the wood of old buildings
and is hard to annihilate.
Albert G. Mas, 81 Virginia Ave,
has been successful in DISCRIMINATING
all these pests with his own prepare
ton known as Sudden Death"
This is a liquid used in a sprayer
which gases" the insect, thereby
routing it from its hiding place and
destroying it. The liquid Is harmless
TO human beings.

FURNACES SHOULD
Be REPAIRED IN
SUMMER MONTHS


Furnaces. like all other things me-
chanical, should have period Of
rest after a long period Of strenu-
GUS service. and should have a thor
ough overhauung before they are
called upon TO serve at capacity over
another long stretch Of time
According 10 LYMAN Escol Of the
Ideal Heating Company. 2+39 Central
Ave, this very vital attention TO their
furnaces should not be neglected.
There are in indianapolis only a
few companies able 10 give satisfac-
tory repair service for heating
plants" he said There are approx
imately $4,000 homes i'm Indianapolis
with about so 600 furnaces. and unless
these furnaces are repaired during
the summer a majority of them will
not be ready for firing next fall
1T takes expert knowledge to repair
furnaces properly, just as it takes ex-
pert knowledge to install furnaces. Re
pair men, operating for a few con
Germs, cannot take care Of all the re-
pair work in indianapolis if it is all
left until a few weeks before cold
weather.
Last year, just previous to winter,
we had $50 orders to repair furnaces
Immediately. 1t was an absolute i'm
possibility for our company TO take
care Of all these orders. In several
cases doctors called and asked that
certain homss on our list have pref
erence because there was Illness in
the family. Serious situations of this
sort, as we'll as a great deal Of IN
necessary inconvenience, could be pre-
vented easily and completely if home
owners would only have their furnaces
repaired now"
