A Magazine Which Builds Houses.

a Magazine Which Builds Houses.
The readers Of The Ladies' Home
Journal are about as responsive a
clientele as any magazine possesses.
About six months ago the Phila-
delphia magazine started to publish a
series of practical architectural plans
showing how artistic houses could be
built at moderate cost. 1t employed
a special architect, and his work was
certainly artistic. Besides the plans
it agreed to furnish complete specif-
cations Of each house at a minimum
cost. Thousands Of people liked the
plans given and the series has been a
great success for the magazine.
This spring the building Of over five
hundred houses, varying in cost from
$500 to $1,000 each, will be started in
different parts Of the country by
Journal readers, in addition to over
one hundred other houses which have
already been built
