ought to be like that. for it is nothing

Ii bay windows are too expensive, a
very desirable substitute can be had by
placing two ordinary-sized windows side

the bottom for seats or for plants.
A room with a window like this can
not fail to be CHEEKY, and its effect in n
simple cottage house is quite sumptu-

the fact that it is less exposed than
the deep bay window to outer heat and
