Interior finish: Plaster walls. and

Accommodations The principal
rooms and their sizes, closets. etc. are
shown by the floor plans given here
with. Beside these there is a cellar I'M
der the hall and parlor. The attic is
hOOred but no rooms are finished.
The bathroom is supplied with cold
water only, the total expense for tub
and plum ing being $50. An ineXpen-
sive hOt-Water supply can be procured
in the shape of q metal WRter-rsserYoir
placed at one end of the tub, under
which is placed an oil or q gas heating
attachment. Regular plumbing for hot
water supply would cost $40. Plum ling
for & water closet, for which there is
space in the bathroom, would cost 300.
Accommodations may be increased by
building a ono-stOry kitchen extension
(abOut $40 cubic feet, costing S240, and
using the present kitchen as a library
or a bedroom. The verandR accommo-
datlOns may be extended by carrying
the veranda along either side to one
half the depth of the house, at q cost of
81 per ineal foot.
Special features: The exterior of
this design is regarded as an approved
example of modern cottage archi-
lecture. 1t is rather conspicuously
ornamental after the painter is through,
especially Sc if the painter fully i'm
proves the opportunity afforded by the
panelled gables, but its OrnamentatiOn
is legitimate and the result of simple
methods.
The interior has a square hall and the
rooms average a fair size. The dining
room is ample. The kitchen is small,
but it is connected with what may be
called a working pantry; that is, the
pantry is large and we'll lighted, afford
ing room for mixing and similar work,
which may be performed there more
comfortably than in the hot kitchen. A
small opening is provided between the
dining room and kitchen closet, with a
sliding door, for the purpose of passing
dishes.

and-easy spouse-especiaIIy to Epson
and Ascot.
His Royal Highness does not bet for
himself, his commissions being executed
by tombstone, Abingdon, and Chetwynd.
He wins much Oftenef than he loses,
because his advisers, knowing that the
royal temper Is apt to be upset at the
end Of bad day, take care to give him
what they believe to be the very
stFaightest of straight tips.
The Princes favOrite racing town is
Newmarket, and he loves it because
the natives do not mob him whenever
he stirs abroad. I met him in High
street there a week or so ago stTOling
along quite unattended and unnOticed.
He was got up in correct sporting fash
ion, and wore among other striking
things pair of long yellow riding
boots which well set off the handsome
legs and ankles of which his Royal
Highness is inordinateIy proud
have frequently seen the Prince in
London, and upon every occasion his
face had the same mechanical, half
foolish, half-amiable smile, which is
part of the royal outfit when moving
about town. At Newmarket, however,
the Prince was without the stereOtyped
smile and walked along whistIing and
whacling his big boots with a whip as
though life was worth living there at
any rate. The Princes eldest son,
Albert Victor, better known by his
popular name of Collars and Cuffs,
is fast young man, who is engaged
just now in having his fling under the
kindly and not unsympathetic eye Of
his royal papa. Albert Victor is not a
beauty, and would be considered an
average specimen of an ordinary dude
We're 1t not for his neck, which is as
long as cameleOpard's and attracts
unwelcOme attention wherever he goes.
The youngster has recently registered
his own colors, but only for regimental
racing.

A MODEL 50, 500 HOUSE.
R. W. sHOPPELL, ARCHITECT.
Copyrighted.

Copyrighted.
The sale by auction of the great sum-
mer hotel at ROckaway Beach, which is
advertised for an early date, calls atten-
lion to the most stupendOus building
folly on record. The condition of sale
that the building must be removed from
the ground reduces the value to that of
kindling wood and secondhand build
ing materials. The situation discIoses
an inevitable loss of a million and half
Of dollars.
Instead of building that great struc-
ture of q thousand rooms on the sand l,
which was contrary to scripture az well
as good sense, had the projectors bought
a thousand acres of land mot SANDY near
New York, laid out streets and small
parks, divided the tract into, say, 5000
building plots, erecting 8 pretty, low
cost cottage on every tenth plOt-aIl OF
which was possible with their money,
what different result there would have
been! UnquestiOnably they would have
made a profit OF a mllhon-prObably
more.
1t may be safely estimated that %, 600
families now living in crowded apart
ments in the city of New York, and a
proportiOnate number in other large
cities, would gladly purchase tasteful
and convenient lOw-cOst cottages located
in the suburbs Speculative builders
rarely build them, although they know
they are in demand. The brisk demand
for them usually induces the builder to
ask high prices for them, and that de-
feats the purpose.
A great building company, with am
pie capital and with fixed prices based
on fair profits, is needed to build low
cost cottages. The brilliant financial
success of such an enterprise would be
almost a certainty.
Below will be found a description of
the building design illustrating this
article:
Size Of structure: Extreme width, 80
feet; depth, 20 teet inches; not in
Guiding veranda and kitchen porch; ex-
IRENE depth, 80 feet 8 inches.

The Serious Cause for Agitation Over tie
Dangers Of the Season Interesting
Interviews with PrOminentPeOples

There has been much excitement within the
past few days over the condition of our drink
ing water and the alarming increase of Sum.
mer diseases. On every side people have been
overheard cOnVersing on this subject, which is
certainly Of the greatest Importance. ThefOl-
lowing facts, which we have gathered and
which bear directly upon the question, VIII be
found both interesting and profitable:
Mr. Henry Brown, of the American Bank
Note Company, said: S'During the warm
weather we are often obliged to keep our peo-
pie at work day and night so that employees
have the heat to endure as well as the Odar OF
the various inks. i desire to acknowledge my
recognition of the valuable service Perry Davis
PaiR-KHleT has rendered our employees. 1t has
grown so popular among my people we should
hesitate to be without it.
Mr.. 81. f. Greer, agent OF the College Of
Electrical Engineering, said: 81 have studied
medicine and have travelled extensively in.
Europe, Asia, Africa and America. ] have
seen the dangers and deaths that hot weather
and bad water bring but have never found a
better medicine than Perry Davis Pain-Kiiler.''
Chief Engineer j. A. Severns, U- s. r, H.,
said: 81 cannot speak too highly of Perry
Davis Pain-Killer in cases of cholera, diar-
rhOea. etc. have had occasion TO use it both
for myself and for the men on board ship, and
the relief it gives is so speedy and sure that no
ship should ever go sea without supply OF it. -

Detroit (AIich.) Sunday Sun, July ..
Miss Amanda Fisher, of 201 Champlain

tive poverty to afiuence.
She is the fore-lady in one of the fats of
Gray, ToyntOn aud Foz's candy factory in

''Of course, I am delighted at my good
fortune" said Miss Fisher to Sunday Sun
man.
''Did you experience any difficulty in get
ting the money!"
mo; I put my ticket in the hands of one
of the banks here, and they got my money
for me-
81 suppose your friends are delighted at
your good fortune"
Eyes; I must say that have received
many congratulations. OF course I am de
lighted for I shall not have to work so
hard.''
The money was paid to Miss Fisher at the

While staying at a seaport town in
Maine, last summer, a young man
named Edgar Ward caught q large
Goldfish. Anxious to exhibit the prize
to his father, who was expected in town
the following week, he hired a fish
cage-a water space near the shore in
closed with stakes-and in it placed
the fish, in very fair condition. For
few days it seemed rather dumpish and
refused to eat; after that it rallied and
acted quite like itself The young
fisherman became much interested in
feeding and playing with his prisoner,
and spent several hours daily In the
fsh-cage.
The cod soon became accustomed to
its narrow quarters and the presence
of its young master. It took food from
his hand, and allowed him to stroke
and fOndIe it gently.
Seeing the creature so tame, Edgar
conceived the idea Of Harvesting it and
taking it outside the fish cage. He
procured some stout Irvine and after
several attempts succeeded in harness
ing the fish to his satisfaction cord
IN its mouth for bits and some strong
lines attached for drawing.
After few trials within the incIos-
ure, the cod responded readily to a
gentle pull on the bit lines; and then
it was taken into the open water. This
was the beginning OF a good deal of
fun for the Gods owner and his friends
They drove the cod about in the shall
low water, swimming after it, only
taking care that their sea-horse did not
make for deep water and dive to the
bottom.
Many curious spectators came down
to the beach to watch the sport, and
among the rest a young girl of venture
some spirit, who soon wanted to drive
the cod herself. Young Ward was per
suaded to let her make the attempt.
She could swim little, but for bet
ter protection she dOnned a Iife-pre-
server. Then, somewhat excited, and
full of merry bravadO, she entered the
water and took the lines.
The cod at once swan off, dragging
her lightly after it. She laughed and
called out to her companions on shore
in wild enthusiasm.
The cod was swimming into deep
water, and Edgar shouted, "purn this
way don't go so far Quit
At this point the young girl evident
" became confused. She ierked wildly
first on one line and then on the other.
The reins somehow got entangIed.
Her head went under; there was q
momentary struggle; she threw up he1
arms, and the next instant she was
dragged completely under water by the
strong fish.
A boat was hurriedIy manned by
Ward and three of his companions.
They were soon at the place where she
had disappeared, but could see nothing
Of her. They scanned the water in ali
directions, and rowed further out.
There she is ~ cried Edgar, and he
plunged into the sea. One of the others
followed him. Fortunately they were
quite at home in the water, and soon
freed the young girl from the lines and
brought her to the surface She was
unconscious, nearly drowned.
The hfe-preserver was found to be
stuffed with hay, and it was this weight
which had first dragged her under vat
er. and so frightened her that she lost
her presence of mind.
The cod, still In harness, made its
escaIss YOutH'S Companion.
