Mighty few men like to have the above
exclamation thrown at them, and yet it is
queer how many lie by their own actions.
A man promises to pay debt at certain
time. He carelessly neglects to do it, too
often when the money is in his pocket, and
the men he owes are suffering for it. We
have many such, ard we shall give them a
few days more of grace and then we shall

do, we will go to extremes. Remember

Hints to Carpenters.

THE American Builder believes that
there is much labor in vain in the ORA.
mentation OF houses, esi 'ccially wooden
houses 1t tells carpenters, before making
and liking quantity Of ornament, to h"
sure that it is good and goes on to cay !:
There arc many things that you do, and
many others that an architcct-if there be
one in the case-will often Instruct you to
do, which are neither tasteful nor in good
construction. OF course there are eAcep-
tons. You may be sure of this, however,
that the more elaborate and covered with
ornament building is, the more YOU ere
going on the wrong track. Real beauty
consists not in aided features but IN the
body OF the work itself, and this TACT
should always be borne in mind.
The principle of carving wood for out
side ornament is wrong. We would not
saw it is to be discarded altogether, but,
still, We have that leaning. Cut work,
and that of the simplest kind, is the best.
Completely in forms and ornaments Is
mostly bad. 1t not only requires unncc'
tssary labor tn produce, but there ~ ac'n
al)y vexa,ion in the mind Of the spectator
When people see thing that is croWoto
, with intricate work, that it takes then
trouble to make out, tits tolr1ably GOOD eV
idcnce that such work is not exactly "ha'
! Is waited,
