ception hall, sitting room, china room
closely connecting with the dining room
and kitchen; between the reception hall
and kitchen, the stair hall; one flue stack
connecting with three rooms and provid-
ing space for three CRATES. The plan is up-
proximately square. 1t is compact, labor
saving and money saving. 1t saves money
Ill the first cost; it saves money in heating
and in the price Of help, and saves energy.
Most mothers with II growing family of
boys and girls like to have side hall The
children come home from school, pour in
to the house, and if there is no other conven-
lent way they track through the reception
room, dropping things here and there in
great confusion. This plan provides for
side cntrance into the side hall, and with
the row of hooks along the wall space, there
is an opportunity for the encouragement of
good habits if there be Il row of hooks low
down for the smaller ones and another one
higher up for the others.
The stairway lands in the center of this
house on the second floor. That means that
one may radiato from the stair landing,
and with the smallest amount of waste
energy reach any room on the second floor
From the head of the stairway one can 20

Animal worship Among tho Hebrew,

Tho Old Testament records show-not-
outstanding the various rcvisions through
which these venerated books have passed
many indications of animal worship
among the 11raclites, which must have
lasted for ages before the prohibition in
culcatcd in the second line of the deca-
loSue was formulated. At comparatively
late date Jehovah was woishipcd under
the popular symbol of Il bull, while the
twelve oxen upholding the lavcr in Solo
mons temple, as well as the horns adorn-
ing the altar, We're drawn from the prcv;,-
lent bull worship
Modern research has also proved chat the
chcrubim were represented in the form of
winged bulls. NJ. Lenormant, in his IA
nous book on the beginnings of History"
says THAI, during the time of the kings and
prophets, most assuredly the chciubim,
rs there described, are animals. Mrs.
Clara X. Barnum in Popular Science

room. If the stairway were arranged in
the front hall, as is sometimes done, the
second story chamber would be measur;lbly
destroyed; certainly it would not be IL large
chamber. Then there would have to be n
passage from the front to the rear
In nearly all conveniently arranged floor
plans one will find the stairway landing
near the center of the house. 1t gives good
facilities for distribution. In this plan
there is only one stairway. On the other
hand, the stair hall is so located that one
can go from any room on the first floor to
this stairway and thence to the second and
attic without passing through any other
room on the first floor. From the kitchen
to the side hall one passes through two
doorways to reach the stair entrance. This
keeps the smell OF cooking from the front
part of the house, but from the kitchen one
may go down cellar or through the side en-
trance to the outside. This is kind of
universal passage From the side entrance
one can go from any room on the first floor
or to the cellar. Another feature about
this stairway is that one can go from the
kitchen up the stairway and into the rear
bedroom without going into the main hall
i'll the front part of the house.

xyhlttler,s Poetic 6b.roe.e-

1t has been said till it says itself that
Whittier was the peoples poet. This is
true; but he was more than that. He was
the post of u broad humanity, and he was
the poet of n living faith His songs of
freedom, which perhaps in his hearts
depths he cherished more than any other
phase of his lifc's work, were superb out
bursts. He sang them rs the prophets of
Israel spoke in their holy frances. The
spirit of God constrained him. He was q
literary Hebrew. OF course it scarcely need
be said that he was no HELENE. The Hell
lene does not trouble himself about
causes" In Whittier the sense of moral
responsibility awokc his genius.
His "artlcss art" as it has been we'll
called, was best developed in his later
years, when the freed slave and the saved
country gave an interval of rest to that I'M
compromising New England conscience
which is vaguely labeled Puritan by the
outside intelligence of London, Paris or
New York, and which is liable to make the
greatest failures and the greatest successes

A BALLAD OF woolNa.

When pleasures paths no more allure,
And victuals cease to fasclnate,
Then Pm in love past mortal cure,
In short-1'vc met another fate;
But long L do not hesitate;
Kurdish up my lovers art
And on this question ruminate-
How shall / win the maidcn's hearth
know loves path is insecure,
And nnught its rigors can abatc,
But /. IN Soolh, could neer endure
To travel at an amblng guit
do my utmost, carly, late,
To make her fancy take my part,
And Oh this question mediate
How shall l win the maitlcn's heart?
send her roses, fragrant, pure,
And loving songs pcrpctrate;
sit upon her furniture
And tell her of my wocful state;
In hope that signs may Indicate
That in her breast II shaft doth smart.
And give Inc cause TO jubilatc-
How shall win the muidcn's heart?
L'ENvOI.
Prince, thou art rich. pray liQuidato
The bills owo in every mart
For flowers and sweets, gems small and
great,
With them won the maidcn's hcart.
