A NOVELTY IN BUILDING.
Tiny Models That Show Just How a
House Will Look.

Do you contemplate building a house? If so,
here is an Invaluable suggestion guaranteed 10
save you lot OF money and regret and pre-
serve the architect from untold aggravation.
In Boston, says the Globe there is man who
from plans and specifications will make tiny
model, showing In detail just how the COM
pleted building will look. He charges from $50
to 800 to duplicate in min ature three.stOry
dwelling of ten or fifteen separate apartments.
Everything Is accu ately reproduced from the
slope of the roof to the tread of the staircase.
In this way the prospective owner, seeing his
idea practically realz ed, is able to mas g timely
and Just criticism. For even with lively I'M
agnation and some knowledge of building, it
is impossible 20 get very clear conception of

Ing TO see how cramped and cheap or bald and

of flaws.
The Bostonian's scheme is to save you any
possible disapDOintments or bunders. On a
platform five by four feet he sets up the little
model, SbinglIng, pastering or painting the ex-

building Will think it rather an inexpensive ex-

Every architect knows what it is to fight his
way inch by inch from the Yestbule TO the
kitchen, always retreating. but saving sufficient
of his original plans on the way to make the
struggle worth while. Nor is this because
women are so unreasonable but rather that
they are uuaccustOmed to graspIng an idea in
its entirety. For this reason then one would
think even a crude model OF the architects de-
signs would be helpful 10 all palties.

flows down again. 1t happens this way: When
IL Is slack water In the Hudson, or low Tide,
this extends up Ten miles. Then the food tide
ruShes into the ocean, and when il reaches the
mouth of the river dives under the fresh water.
The salt water Is more dense, OF course, and
lifts all the water in the Hudson bodily on its
surface. To an observer IL still appears TO be

for a considerable portion OF the distance to

from her fellow young ladies for an or

ladies are all members of the associated
students. but few of them take any active
interest in the organization, and it does
not deal with their peculiar needs. Now
