of places at which she might care to
look.

She did not resent his doing this
but she hoped that he would let he1
have such a home as she desired. She
had heard that there were beautiful
apartments on Park avenue. She sug-

She swallowed her disappointment
and meekly took the list he handed
to her. After several days of home
hunting, she selected an apartment

if l have good luck, to eaD dish
for which the following is the recipe;
First catch your fish with hook and

good sized kettle and put into it first
a layer of sliced potatoes; then a fins
sprinkling Of fine sliced onion. then
layer of fat pork, cut into small
cubes; then a layer of fish. skinned
and sliced. and then a layer of crack
ers or thin pilot biscuits. Sprinkle
salt and pepper on each layer accord
ing to taste.
Repeat the layers from three to
five times. according to the size OF
your kettle.
Fill the pot moderately fun with
water and put it on the fire to cook
slowly II the water gets low re-

three cupfuls of milk.
If your taste is slightly vitiated by
contact with the world you may add
a double spoonful of some spicy sauce.

Gus thought and they are a source
of unlimited pleasure. Everybody

Floyd Bass, who has the Parkview
Peonie Gardens at w Riverside DR.
and Lafayette Rd.. says the hardy
perenniels have grown to be more
and more popular, and among these
there is none more popular than the
peony To see these beautiful gar
dens with approximately 100000 big,
fragrant blossoms is to realize why
every person yearns for peonies in
his yard.
The blossoms were slow in opening
this year, due to the late season, and
Just now they seem to be at their
best. The deep crimson flowers ap-
peal to some while the white with
their plume like petals seem to be
perfect, and the soft rose colored
ones are incomparably beautiful.
These gardens are the destination of
many automobile drivers. Many peo-
Ijle visit tho gardens, not only 70 pur-
chase some of the flowers but for the
delightful privilege of seeing them.

HOME OWNING IS
SAVING INCENTIVE

People do not feel the urge to save
money unless they feel the need Of
saving, unless they see through their

cherished desire. Perhaps there is
no desire more active in every per-
sons life than the longing for q home
According to Miss Josephine Henley
of the savings department of the Ma
tional City Bank, the patrons who
are saving to buy homes are the most
systematic. At the. same time they
seem to be happier in their saving
They know saving is the one way in
which they can realize their lifes
ambitions.
1t is our desire and our pleasure
to assist people who are saving for a
home" Miss Henley said We find
the person who is saving for home
can do so best if he will decide to save
a fixed percentage of his salary every
pay day. 1t is foolish to wait until
the end of the month, for in all
probability the largest part of the
salary will have been spent. There
are few people who could not live
on 10 per cent less with just little
management and planning.

STUCCO
HAS DURABILITY
Beautiful Effects May Be OBJ
tanned With Finish,

In order that a home-owner may
realize the greatest satisfaction from
the house he builds 1t is necessary for
him to see that three principles, at
least. are followed in construction.
According to r. s. Horn department
manager Of the Indianapolis Coal Com.
pany, Bankers Trust Building. the
items are; Sense of proportion or logic
of plan, beauty and strength or perna-
nency.
Brick and stucco have come into
wider use during the last few years
because Of their pernanence, of their
adaptahility to artistic use. and be-
cause of their fire and temperature re-
sisting qualities" Horn said. Today
the brick used in the construction of
houses is of almost infinite variety,
both in color and finish A brick house
Of today is as different from an old
brick house as two lumber houses Of
the same comparative age. We have
built a showroom in our offices dis.
playing the effects achieved by brick
combinations. This illustration has
been of inestimable value to our
clients.
Our Elastica, Complete-in-the-Ba
stucco has been widely used and uni.
formly satisfactory results have been
obtained. These are due, in large part,
to the fact the stucoo is factory mixed
and proportional, and Is a product
that has received the skill of exacting
chemists. Elastica is water-proofed
and sheds water under all pressures
and Of any volume.
I'VE are glad to give the benefit OF
our years Of study and experience In
the handling of building materials to
people who are about to build. We
find the service we are able to render
them not Only saves them time and
money but keeps them from investing
in some cheaper product that would
cause dissatisfaction in a short time. :"

FURNACE MUST Be
SET Up PROPERLY
Results Expected Should Be
Considered,

A furnace is as satisfactory as its
installation Is perfect. Heating en-
gineers have acquired enough knowl
edge to enable them to gauge just
how much heat will be needed for
each room, how much will be los;
through contact with cold air from
openings around doors; how much
will go out through windows and
walls.
According to Guy A. Voorhees, Of
the Century Heating Plant. practical
knowledge necessary to the proper
installation Of a furnace results In
scientific planning by eating en-
gtneers o. Voorhees,, president Of the
company, is a licensed heating en-.
gineer, and on all the plants this
company sells. blue prints are fur
nished. Each blue print is prepared
only after the lay of the house, it's
size and other particulars have been
studied.
"One trouble people have with fur
naces lies in the fact the pipes are
too small and consequently heat is
forced through them when the fur
mace is being fired at capacity" O.
Voorhees, said. "A furnace should
have pipes large enough t. carry
certain volume of air so the furnace
throws heated air Of larger volume
into the room. This insures more ade-
quately and more uniformly heated
rooms with a smaller outlay Of fuel.
There is as much science about
the right installation of furnace
as there is in the building of the
furnace. A poor furnace properly in
stalled will give better service than
an expensive furnace improperly in
stalled"
