sized the Importance of thorough
knowledge of the house, its con-
struction, proximity to churches
schools and utilities and elevation in
relation to sea level. He also stated
that salesmen of new or old homes
must be conversant with neighbor-
hood trends which are subject to
constant change and that more than
a working knowledge Of architecture
is highly desirable. In this latter
connection Mr.. Carr referred to the
Architectural Forum as one Of the
best publications for perusal.

Building Loan Report
Shows Heavy Investing

The investment Of $l02,O54 900 in
1000 reporting savings. building and
oan associations during the last
quarter of 1898 was reported this
week by the United States Building
md Loan League. The sum was
nearly double the amount withdrawn
by holders Of share accounts in the
same associations. The figures COM
)ine reports made to the Federal
Home Loan Bank Board and to the
eague on new money invested and
capital withdrawn.
A. D. Theobald, Chicago, assistant
yice president of the league, points
)ut that December was the best of
he three months reported for, hav-
ng bought $36 $50 600 of new money
INTO these home-f1nancing institu-
tons. In his opinion it was a direct
reflection of the upturn in number
Of jobs and increase in pay envelopes
generally characteristic OF the last
month Of the year.
The December increase was 1914
per cent over the November figure
for new investments, in contrast to
the 90 per cent decrease comparing
November with October.
Withdrawals which totaled $54,-
1894 for the reporting associa-
tions for the quarter were least Of
the three months in December and
also showed a decline from October
to November. The same general
Improvement is held by Mr.. Theobald
to be responsible for this circum-
stance.
New money for the quarter rep
resented about 81 for every $2l of
the assets of reporting associations.
If this rate Of investment is kept up
this year for all associations, those
not reporting as well as reporting,
1t would mean practically $1.000,-
000, 900 Of new money, Mr.. Theobald
pointed out.

BY LAWRENCE CROL1Us.

Dy AAWnENNE OhOLAOS.
News comes to us of an oil burner
with a number of new features
which should interest a home mod
ernizer looking for the latest thing
in heating equipment. This seems
to be rather strange time to be
talking about oil burners, but oddly
enough spring has become a popu-
lar season for the installation of
equipment of that sort. Anyway,
we'll tell you about this burner and
II you want to do something about
it now your dealer will be tickled
to death to accommodate you, other
wise file the clipping away under
''oil burners" and look into the mat
ter next fall.
AS you probably know, or have
found out by bitter experience, the
nozzle of an oil burner will some
times carbon up and put an end to
the essential business of heating
your house. To prevent this from
happening, this new oil burner has
a special nozzle tip made of a
unique combination of metals. The
tip itself is made of a beryllium
copper, which has the fortunate
ability of dissipating heat very rap
idly. Hence. when the burner shuts
down and heat is being radiated
back from the combustion chamber
the nozzle cools so rapidly that car
bon cannot form. Carbon Is thereby
a stranger to either the inside or
the outside of the nozzle tip and
your burner should percolate along
with no trouble from that source.
A special air whirling device has
also been installed In this very
worthwhile burner, and according
to the manufacturers, the air is
forced through the burner in such
a way as to prevent the noisy pull
sations and vibrations which some
times occur. 1t is also focused" 50
that it combines rapidly with the
oil spray and results in instanta-
neous combustion. If, for some rea-
son or other, the burner should

fail to ignite, the whole burner
will be shut off by a safety con-
troll, and must be checked into be-
fore it can be started again.
The burner is also equipped with
continuous ignition so that any oil
which Is forced out of the nozzle
will be ignited at once. These safety
features should do much toward
convincing home owners who have
been bit skeptical of oil burners,
even though thousands Of them have
already been installed, that they
really are safe and ef1lcient way of

knowing it had lain there for weeks
Jack was different. How? She
didn't know the answer. Surely he
was loyal. He had no regrets. But
he was different. Could it be he was
losing respect?
Polly shut these thoughts out of
her mind. She kept them shut out
for another month. Then she could
resist no longer She lay on the
couch in their bedroom and watched
them parade across the ceiling. 1t
was no use. She couldn't 60 on like
this.
Below stairs door opened and
closed She heard Jacks voice She
heard him crossing up the stairs.
"Jack!"
Hello. honey. Gosh, am I tired!
Guess I'll take nap before dinner"
He didn't bother to kiss her.
Jack, wait!" Her voice compelled
him to turn. Its no good, Jack.
We can't go on like this. We've got
to have it out"
He looked at her moment, stub
born. feigning curiosity. Then he
shrugged. 20. K. What's the
answer?"
Agree on Divorce.
They talked for hours. In the end
they agreed there was only one
answer-divorce. He had loved her
because she was the most important
woman in town. Her position gave
her charm. She had loved him be-
cause he was the most eligible and
personable man. His devotion had
flattered her.
So they were divorced. Polly was
so glad she had her business train
ing. She went back to Waldron's
looking for job. The job was filed,
but they knew of another. Within
a week she was established as as
sistant buyer at Lamont's. A year
later she was promoted to head buy
er. A woman of her brilliance
couldn't 60 unnoticed for long.
She had moved to Burnside, an
other suburban town on the north
side of the city. Her position here
was much the same as it had been
in Paysonville.
There was man here, too. He was
unlike Jack. but she felt immune to
him. His name was Burt Watson,
They found lot in each other of in
terest. They were together con-
stantly. Almost a year after the
first day they met he took her in
his arms.
Polly, love you. Will you marry
me?"
She closed her eyes and relaxed.
In his arms she felt safe and secure.
1t was a mans world, she thought,
She couldn't 60 on like this forever.
What could she do? What could any
woman do in her predicament?

the wool and Worsted industries.

Very early in her life she had de-

She loved the work. Being woman

She had settled down in the sub
urban town of Paysonville. Immedi-
ately her status became that of the
most important woman in town. She
was pointed out as model. Her
advice was asked. She was invited
to lecture, offered membership to
all the better clubs, urged to run for
local political Offices. Life became

Then she met Jack Henshaw, tall,

And now, less than a year later,

the change at first. It was gradual,
but nevertheless evident. It lay in
what people said, in where she went,
