Men nov in the Army who re-

be reeniisted in their present
grade. Men honorabiy dis.
charged can reenlist within 20
days after discharge in the
grade they held at the time of
discharge, provided they re-
enlist before February 1, 1916.
There's a long list of attractive

ability to keep your present

this privilege expires on

/ In its final decree, a special three
judge Federal expediting court yes
terday approved sale to the railroads
OF the 1880 Pullman, Inc. -owned
sleeping cars.
The decision climaxed more than
five years of legal maneuvers, which
started on July IL, 1910, when Pull
man, Inc, was decreed a monopoly
in violation of the antitrust laws.
The firm decided to continue manu-
featuring sleeping cars and rid itself
OF the operating end.
Approval of the sale to the car
riers for $4,000, 900, however, may
not be the end of the Pullman case

One or all of the three other
bidders-Otis g. Co., Cleveland

Forgan g. Co., Chicago banking

the Supreme Court.
Meanwhile, operation of the sleeper
fleet will be continued by Pullman
until March 81 by permission of
the court. This will give the rail-

management and operating setup.

If your house is cold in the morn
ing it is probably caused by improper
banking of the furnace. You are
not being economical by banking
fires SO low as to cause the house
to chill. The temperature must be
built up again, and to do this re-
quires much more fuel than would
ordinarily be needed to keep the
house at normal temperature
through the night.
The appropriate time to bank fires
low is during the mild fall and spring
months, when less heat is required.
1t is of no advantage to let your
house become chilled during the
winter months. To heat it again
means not only heating the radia-
tors, but the many tons of building
material in the house construction
which absorb much heat before
comfortable room temperature is at
tanned.
Aside from using more fuel, you
and your family will experience dis
comfort in waiting for the tempera-
ture to build up again and you also
are inviting the doctor in.
Tests have proved it is more eco
nomical to keep an even tempera-
ture during cold months than to
shut off heat at night. To maintain
an even temperature it is essential
to carry a full fuel bed at all times.
Before refueling always rake hot

open check draft slightly.
