And  for  the  same  reason  it  will 
pay  you  look  into  the  record  back 
of  the  furnace  you  buy. 
For  over  70  years  the  Sill  Stove  Works  have  been  designing 
heaters  and  ranges  to  scientifically  get  every  bit  of  heat  out  of  the 
fuel  and  use  it  to  the  best  advantage.  This  knowledge  they  have 
used  to  great  advantage  in  furnace  construction.  It  is  remarkable 
what  scientific  design  of  Sterling  grates,  fire  box,  combustion 
chamber  and  radiator  can  do  to  reduce  fuel  cost,  and  how  the 
special  Sterling  joints  and  careful  assembling  eliminate  the  smaller 
nuisances  of  the  cheap  furnace,  such  as  dust  and  gas. 
There  are  different  kinds  and  sizes  of  Sterling  Furnaces  (pipe  or 
pipeless)  and  it  is  the  job  of  the  Sterling  Dealer  with  the  help  and 
advice  of  the  factory  engineering  department  to  select  the  right 
style  and  size  to  heat  your  home  properly. 
That’s  why  you  get  the  “ Double [Guarantee” 
In  the  field  of  the  furnace  the  Sterling  stands  just  where  the 
Sterling  Range,  that  bakes  a  barrel  of  flour  with  a  single  hod  of 
coal,  stands  in  regard  to  other  ranges,  pre-eminent  a  leader  in  its 
field.  It  is  built  to  last  a  life  time  and  do  the  same  guaranteed 
satisfactory  work  year  after  year.  If  you  want  to  save  money  in 
the  long  run,  buy  the  right  Sterling  for  your  home. 
Ask  your  Sterling  Dealer,  or  if  you  do  not  know  him,  write  us  for 
his  name.  Also  ask  for  the  special  plan  sheet  we  have  prepared. 
So  that  you  can  easily  draw  a  plan  of  your 
house.  This  will  help  us  help  you  to  solve 
your  heating  problem. 
Remember  we  offer  every  Sterling  Dealer 
a  plan  which  enables  him  to  install  your 
furnace  now  and  let  you  pay  at  your  con¬ 
venience  in  the  fall.

Wearing  the  Army  Uniform 
Is  there  any  law  in  the  United  States 
that  would  compel  World  War  veterans  to 
discard  the  uniform  they  fought  under 
and  don  that  of  the  Civil  and  Spanish 
wars?  Such  a  condition  exists  at  the 
State  Soldiers'  Home  at  Bath,  N.  Y. 
The  few  World  War  veterans  now  at 
the  Soldiers’  Home  have  had  to  discard 
the  khaki  and  put  on  the  blue  uniform  of 
the  Civil  and  Spanish  veterans,  and  to 
add  to  all  is  the  fact  that  the  command¬ 
ant  wears  his  khaki  uniform,  so  the  boys 
feel  they  have  the  same  right  to  theirs. 
Is  there  anything  that  can  be  done  to 
remedy  this  and  regain  the  uniforms  for 
the  boys,  and  also  protect  them  from  the 
tart  words  of  “the  powers  that  be"? 
New  York.  a  world  war  veteran. 
The  War  Department  at  Washington 
gives  us  the  rules  made  by  the  Adjutant 
General.  It  is  unlawful  for  any  person, 
not  an  officer  or  enlisted  man  of  the 
United  States  Army.  Navy  or  Marine 
Corps,  to  wear  the  prescribed  uniform 
or  any  distinctive  part  of  such  uniform. 
It  is  provided,  however,  that  this  shall 
not  prohibit  any  person  who  has  been 
honorably  discharged  from  wearing  his 
uniform  from  the  place  of  his  discharge 
to  his  home,  within  three  months  after 
the  date  of  such  discharge.  It  is  also  pro¬ 
vided  that  military  societies,  composed 
entirely  of  honorably  discharged  officers 
or  men,  or  both,  may  wear  upon  occasions 
of  ceremony  the  uniform  duly  prescribed 
by  such  societies  to  be  worn  by  the  mem¬ 
bers  thereof.  Such  uniforms,  however, 
shall  include  some  distinctive  mark  to  be 
prescribed  by  the  Secretary  of  War  to 
distinguish  such  uniforms  from  the  uni¬ 
forms  of  the  army,  navy  and  marine 
corps.  A  punishment  for  violation  of 
these  provisions  involves  a  fine  not  exceed¬ 
ing  $.‘100  or  imprisonment  not  exceeding 
six  months,  or  by  both  fine  and  imprison¬ 
ment.  The  rules  state  that  the  'War 
Department  considers  the  color  olive  drab 
not  in  itself  a  distinctive  part  of  the  army 
uniform,  but  it  is  such  when  a  garment  is 
cut  according  to  the  special  army  pattern. 
In  the  case  of  the  army  breeches,  the  de¬ 
partment  does  not  consider  that  they  are 
distinctive,  even  though  in  olive  drab,  be¬ 
cause  the  cut  of  the  garment  is  not  dif¬ 
ferent  from  that  worn  in  civil  life,  nor 
does  the  Government  consider  that  dyeing 
the  cloth  is  the  only  way  to  make  a  coat 
or  overcoat  lose  its  distinctive  character. 
Any  radical  alteration  in  the  cut  of  the 
collar,  the  cuffs  or  the  belt  would  stamp 
the  garment  as  non-military,  and,  there¬ 
fore,  it  can  legally  be  worn.  The  rules 
give  a  long  list  of  parts  of  the  uniform 
which  are  considered  distinctive  and  oth¬ 
ers  that  are  not.  It  is  evident  that  if  a 
garment  is  dyed  differently  from  that  of 
the  regulation  army  color  and  the  cut  of 
the  collar  is  changed  that  such  a  gar¬ 
ment  could  be  worn  without  offense. 
The  Adjutant  General  States  that  the 
purpose,  of  these  rules  is  to  protect  the 
dignity  of  the  uniform.  He  orders  that 
if  a  person  is  found  wearing  a  uniform  so 
nearly  like  that  of  the  army,  navy  or 
marine  corps  as  to  readily  deceive  the 
general  public  it  will  be  proper  to  insti¬ 
tute  proceedings  for  his  arrest  and  pun¬ 
ishment. 
Equity  in  Mortgaged  Property 
In  1921,  April  1,  M  bought  a  farm 
for  $9,600  from  H.  M  paid  $1,400  on 
farm  April,  1921,  gave  a  mortgage  for 
$2,200  for  one  year  to  II.  The  same  time 
II  gave  M  an  agreement  to  pay  M  $500 
back  in  case  M  could  not  pay  the  mort¬ 
gage.  if  in  April.  1922,  M  paid  the  inter¬ 
est,  but  could  not  pay  the  $2,200.  Then 
H  did  not  pay  the  $500  back,  but  prom¬ 
ised  to  give  M  one  year  more  time.  Now, 
in  October,  1922,  TI  made  an  assignment, 
and  his  assignee  sold  the  farm  that 
had  paid  $1,400  on  and  the  house  that  II 
was  living  in.  ->l  did  not  get  the  $500 
and  nothing  else  out  of  it.  Is  there  any 
way  for  M  to  get  any  of  his  money  out 
of  it?  The  time  M  bought  the  farm  there 
was  $500  judgment  on  the  farm,  but  II 
promised  to  pay  that  off,  but  did  not. 
When  II  made  an  assignment  there  was 
close  to  $900  against  H  in  mortgages  and 
judgments.  Do  you  know  of  any  way  for 
M  to  get  some  of  his  money  out? 
Pennsylvania.  u.  w. 
We  do  not  understand  how  the  creditors 
of  II  could  take  from  M  more  than  the 
amount  of  the  mortgage  held  by  H,  and 
the  judgment  which  was  against  the  prop¬ 
erty,  plus  costs  of  foreclosure.  It  would 
seem  as  if  there  should  have  been  a  small 
equity  coming  to  M.  but  perhaps  the  costs 
and  interest  amount  to  enough  to  make  up 
the  difference.  We  do  not  think  the 
agreement  to  pay  $500  was  in  force  after 
H  extended  the  time  for  payment  under 
an  agreement  with  M.  N.  t.
