SECOND STORY.
For the purpose Of making this under.
stood, it may be well to say that one may go
ND the stairway from the front hall to the
landing, some eight steps, apd from thence
down into the kitchen, or he can turn right
face and 60 to the landing on the second
floor. This part of the stairs is used coming
up from the kitchen as well as from the
front hall However, the kitchen stairway
is separated from the landing by door.
There is another door at the foot Of this
kitchen stairway.
In coming down stairs, one may turn to the
right, open door and 60 down into the
kitchen; or, he may turn to the left and go
down the front stairway into the hall. By
this plan everything is concentrated, and
without the serious drawbacks which extra
cost or q smaller number Of rooms would
imply to those who have only little over
$4,000 to spend for house without appur-
tenances. The head room for the stairway
coming up from the kitchen is secured under
the bath tub In the bathroom Immediately
above.
The cellar stairway is clearly indicated as
going down parallel to the kitchen stairs and
under the froat stairs. The cellar in this
house should be under the kitchen, stairways
and the reception hall-that is, it would oc-
cupy all of one side of the house.
The parlor is 14x171S feet in size. It Il
connected with hall by wide sliding doors,
90 that about one-half Of this side Of the room
may be open. The gra6 opposite the sliding
doors in the parlor would present very
beautiful view from the hall and stairway.
Our dining room has-an independent con.
nection with the front hall, 50 that we do moi
have to go through the parlor or the sitting
room to reach it.
The doors leading from the passage intc
the dining room and kitchen should be hung
on double swinging hinges.
The windows in this kitchen should b
placed about three feet from the floor, sc
that tables may be placed under them
There Is a place for gas stove between tht
two windows, or even under them II desirable
The porch at the rear Of the kitchen may b,
inclosed with lattice work, or, what is bet
Ter, coarse lowered Stats, like those of Q
shutter.
The door which leads from the porch intc
the pantry is a small one, placed above the
Ice chest, and Is for the use Of the iceman.
The arrangement of rooms up stairs viii b
readily understood. Leading out Of the hal
is store closet for bedding, etc. It Is located
% as to be accessible from all rooms. From
the front end Of the hall door leads into the
stair passage to the attic.

All medical authorities agree. that
catarrh Is no more nor less than an
inflammation of the lining membrane
of the nasal air passages. Nasal catarrh
and all catarrhal affections of the head
are not diseases of the blood, and 1t is a
serious mistake to treat them as such.
No conscientious physician ever at
tempts to do so. It Is held by eminent
medical men that sooner O. later a
specific will be found for every disease
from which humanity suffers. The
facts justify us In assuming that for ca
tarrh at least positive cure already
exists in Ely Cream Balm. 2t

A Western Murder Discovered.

August last, Edna Wilson, pretty girl
Of IL, mystcriously disappeared from
Cheyenne. a young stcckman, named
McComb, went away the same time and as
he had been paying the girl attention
against her mothers wishes, it was sup
posed that they had eloped. Mccomb
soon returned, however, and denied this.
Soon after McComb sold his ranch aud
left for parts unknown. Tho other day
the new owner Of the ranch discovered a
body, which had been buried under the
floor Of cabin in an nnfreqnented part of
the ranch, which was positively identified
as that Of the missing girl. There was a
bullet hole through the skull and it is now
believed that McComb murdered her. A
fund has been raised TO emp,oy Il tectivcs
to hunt him down.

The emperor iu his speech opening the
Prussian diet expressed profound sorrow
for the death Of the Dowager Empress Au-
gusta. Tie finances. OF Prussia, the EN-
peror said, are in Il favorable condition.
Although the revenue fcl the next few
fiscal years is not expected to equal 1889
the expenses will not he decreased. The
matiicular contributions for 1891 will be
largely increased. A bill providing for
retolm in taxation will be submitted. A
bill will also be Submitted providing for
the extension Of the state railway net =
work. Tie harvest of 1899 was deficient,
but owing 10 tn, imp9rla! customs and ar
rangcments regarding agriculture it is
hoped the effect Of the shortage will be
overcome without rermanf mt prejudice.
The recent strikes, the emperor said, had
clouded the prospects of trade, but he was
rejoiced that the employers had removed
the &orkingmen $ grievances and hoped the
strikes would not recur. The emperor ex-
pressed the belief that the artisan class
would constantly become more satisfied
with their position.

Great Efforts Mailing to Save liawes from

The news that the Alabama supreme
court had affirmed tho decision Of the lower
court condemning Dick Hawes to death
for the murder of his little daughter May,
this being the first of the indictments
against him for the murder of his wife and
two daughters, was received at Birmng.
ham with almost universal satisfaction.
There was not a feeling Of disappointment
at The decision of the supreme court, but
one of relief In the community In general.
The decision was rendered by Justice Nc
Cielland, and the time fixed for the execu-
ton is Friday, Feb. ~. Hawes is kept in
close confinement ard not allowed to see
or talk to any one. His counsel announced
their determination to apply for a writ Of
hateas corpus before federal court, and
failing in this they will appeal to the sn-
preme court of the United States, claiming
avitlation Of the rights granted all citizens
by the constitutions of the United i-tates.
The fight to save Hawes' neck will proba-
bly, yet be long and bitter.
