A SENSIBLE HOUSE.
IT CONTAINS NOT A BIT OF WASTE
ROOM.

and Is Said to Meet with Very General
Favor.


INDIANAPOLIS, Aug. 6.-There is no waste
room in this house; everything counts for
room. It is the natural outgrowth OF the de-
mands Of apparently unreasonable clients.
The architect has to study to meet the wants
of those who want good deal of room and
all Of the conveniences for small sum Of
money.
Thisis ono chimney plan. There are
three CRATES with independent fues III tho
three principal rooms on tae first floor, and
two CRATES with their fues on the second
floor. Ono among its other points Of economy
is the stairway arrangement. Il is a combi-

It opens out Of the way into the recess at the
left. In the opposite side from this recess is
a deep closet with a comparatively narrow
door, narrow enough SO that it win not come
in contact with the front door or take up too
much space in the vestibule This door could
be arranged to slide, which would be better
yet. In the closet there is abundance Of
room for wraps. In one corner of the vesti-
hnle is space for an umbrella stand. The
opening between the vestibule and re-
ception hall may be cut Off by either por-
there or door. The space on the right hand
side of the reception hall, corresponding
with the vestibule, can be used as a window
seat in the summer time, and if an extra
window is placed in the end, as a conserva-
tory in winter. According to this arrange
ment the reception hall is a room and not
hall. The stairway does not take up a suf-
ficient amount Of space to be Objectionable,
and the CRATE opposite the doorway is espe-
cially @htractive. Nothing particular remains
to be said about the sitting room or din
ing room. There is a room lettered

The sAIoonInauence.

Frequent drinking makes a glib
tongue, and matters that might be re-
garded as State secrets outside the pale
OF the bar-room are there discussed
with a shocking lack of reserve. The
funny part Of it is that the bartender
is taken seriously into the discussion,
and his opinions are treated as of great
respect and authority by persons who
when sober, have no companionship
with the mixer of drinks. Think Of a
man taking his business affairs. his

Alcohol for Diphtheria.

Alcohol, we make bold to say, is the
prince of antiseptics and the most perfect
and reliable medicine of which we have
any knowledge in diphtheria. Diluted
with equal parts of water and given in
small and repeated doses, the malignant
symptoms of this most fatal maladv soon
disappear, and convalescence becomes
assured. 1t is interesting to note with
what facility the alcohol dissolves the
diphtheric emulation in the throat, lowers
the temperature and calms the pulse,
showing its destructive action upon the
germs of the disease, which have been
absorbed by the glands and gained access
to the blood. This remedy has been used
by us in the treatment of diphtheria since
1878, during which time no case of the
disease has slipped through our hands
except in one solitary instance, and that
case was in articulo norris before the
remedy was given. The remedy is also
prophylactic to the disease, as we have
found in many instances where it has
been expedient to quarantine the patient.
For this purpose it is only necessary for
exposed persons to use the remedy,
diluted as above stated. as a gargle and
to swallow a little of it three or four
times day.-Medical Times.
