HOMEMADE coUNTERPANEs
These Are Applique Designs in Red Cot
tons or Blue Linens.

Effective and inexpensive artistic
bedspreads or counterpanes can be made
at home by decorating twilled sheets
(of as heavy weave as possible) with
a bold design. Many prefer an UNI
bleached sheet, as being for some eff
fects more artistic than white and not
requiring to be washed so often. A bold
applique design in turkey red cotton or
blue linen (the former usually washing
better) worked in two strips running
lengthwise across the counterpart, of
about fifty-four inches in length and
fourteen or more in breadth, makes a
very pretty decoration. First stamp a
bold design suitable for applique on the
two strips of turkey red previously
washed and rinsed in several waters to
prevent running of COLOR, and then
basic these into position on the coun-
terpane. Then outline the design in
red embroidery cotton-or blue, as the
case may be-and cut away the super
fuous parts Of turkey red every now
and then; Go over the outlined edges
buttonhole), the stitches going outward
from the design into the background in
the form Of little teeth. Besides adding
greatly to the appearance, this second
stitching across the outline strengthens
the work
Splashers for the washstand, and bu-
reau scarfs or dressing table covers to
match this counterpart can easily be
made. Any color that corresponds with
the prevailing tint of the bedroom can
be used, but to prevent subsequent dis
appointment choose color which is
known to wash well. In any case, salt
or vinegar should be used in the rinsing
water after washing, to prevent the col
or fading or running.

vored applicant as it wanted the entire
first and second floors Of the building on
long time lease.
The only vacant building in the entire
downtown district is the room controlled
BY the Palace Clothing company, at
Fourth street and Nicollet avenue,
which was vacated last week by the
Malmsted company, and is now being
remodeled. It is said that there are
several applicants after this place, altho
it has not yet been rented. An offer,
railroad companies, was at figure that
would have been more than satisfactory
to landlord owning such property five
years ago, but it was rejected.
Three store rooms, 2Ox1OO feet, on
Nicollet avenue between Sixth and Sew
enth streets, were rented this week for
$500 month. Similar store rooms be-
tween Seventh and Eighth streets, are
worth from 1926 to $3.50 a month. One
real estate man said that rents on store
buildings on Nicollet avenue between
$500 to $500 a month, but that it is al
most impossible to get them at any
price. .+ :,
While rents in certain business sec
lions have increased greatly. there are
one or two sections where the increase
has not been so large and where occa
sionally a building rents for less than il
| did five years ago. This is, the case
in the vicinity of Bridge Square, where
good buildings have been left almost
isolated, in business point Of view by
the movement uptown. Then again
repairing adjoining buildings, or erect
ing new buildings by the side of smaller
ones, has decreased the relative value OF
the. smaller building SO that the rents
have increased but little, if at all.

Rents for business places in the heart
Of the city have increased materially In
the past five years. Real estate deal
ers say this increase generally has been
from so to Is per cent in few cases the
cost to tenants is double what it was in
1900. .s - .
At present Minneapolis is short on
store buildings in the heart Of the city,
and the real estate men are in g. guam
Diary. They are confronted by condi-
tions which puts up to them the old
problem that puzzled the hotel keeper
that Of putting twelve men in eleven
rooms without making it necessary for
two persons to "double up OF course
they can't do it, and as a result some
firms are compelled to remain out of
business because they cannot find loca-
ton. Several real estate agencies
where inquiries were made this week re-
ported from two to ten applications for
downtown business locations that could
not be filed.

which an opening on Nicollet avenue is
snapped up, is shown In the Great

4 SPECIFIC SUGGESTION
HOR THE HOME, BUILDER
For a Suburban SPOT
By E. p. Ogeyv,ire,
Architect. 7O4 Sykes Block,

This cosy little six-room cottage is a
very satisfactory model for a suburban
or lake home, as it's large screened
porches,s front and back, andsmuch to
the available living room in the season
when people hate to be tucked into
small quarters. 1t has an old -fashioned
quaintness that accords well with rural
surroundings. Among the features which
contribute to this are the gambrel roof,
the shutters, the diamonds PANIED glass in
the upper sashes Of the windows, the
oval attic windows and those in the
front gable. The rooms are all Of good
size and there is ample closet room, a
consideration of much weight with
women.
The house has all of the modern con
veniences and is as well built and hand
somely finished as most houses of much
greater size and cost. The house erect
ed on this plan in Linden Hills cost
complete $4,000, which included an I'M
usually elaborate scheme Of interior
decorating. It is heated with hot
water, and has the best open plumbing.
A well-lighted cellar extends under the
whole main portion Of the house, and in
this is the laundry. The pantry is I'M
usually roomy for the size Of the house,
and the sides of the cellar stairs are
lined with shelving.

Minneapolis is to have another white
building when the plans Of the archi-
tects for o. H. Peck & Co. dealers in
Photographic supplies, whose building
was destroyed by fire last December,
are completed. The new structure will
be the sixth pure white front to be
erected in the business section Of the
city. =. =
The Peck building will occupy the
same ground space as the ruined struc-
ture. It will consist Of two full stories
and basement. The ground floor and
basement will be occupied by the photo
graphic supply house while the upper
floor, which will be kept in one large
room, will be rented. The floor space
Of the building. will be 50x15O feet.
The old walls that were not weakened
BY the fire will be used. -

I CITY rs AWAKE

al-Estate Men Expect Many Big
Deals This Year. S.
Minneapolis real-estate dealers are
looking forward to one Of the biggest
years in the history of Minneapolis
real estate. They think 1905 will be
far more satisfactory than any pre-
vious, year. They expect large changes
to be made in the ownership Of tracts
Of residence property and the erection
of business blocks.
Several real-estate men voice the
opinion that the signs Of the times are
right for large movements. There is
a healthy demand for residence lots,
which will mean big movement, and
the scarcity of downtown business
places will likely cause capitalists to
invest in store buildings which can be
rented for goodly sums.
ssThere is no indication of ten
dency toward Ewild-cating' in real
estate,' said one prominent real-estate
man today ''Values are not inflated
and any increase in prices this year
will be made simply because the land
is worth it. Conditions are far differ
ent than they were in the former boom,
when the price values were largely ON
paper. Now there is no boom, but the
city has just awakened to the fact that
it is necessary for it to build to keep
apace with the times

HOME SICKROOMS
Simply Furnished Room with
Sanitary Equipment.

We build our houses for the strong
and equip them for the gay and joyous,
billiard and bathrooms and the
various accessories Of pleasure; but few
among us consider the proper housing Of
the sick. And yet the simplest case can
be better cared for in proper surround
ings and very often even complicated
cases cannot be sent to hospital. In
these days Of enlightened understand
for the sick will not long continue. We
have now in our private medicine chests
a better equipment than many physi-
clans had a generation ago, and a step
farther in the line of advancement will
provide sanitary sickroom in many
homes The sickroom should be located
preferably on the top floor, with south
ern exposure. 1t should be of medium
size with polished floors and walls of
hard plaster painted, so that they may
be thOrOly: washed after the room has
been used for an infectious disease. Hot
and cold water, with "foot' plumbing,
lis very necessary either in the room or
in an adjacent bathroom.
Simplicity should be the keynote OF
the furnishings. An iron bed, a small
dresser, table, and two chairs painted
white, are necessaries. Accessories are
la two-bowl iron washstand, two metal
pitchers, holding one and two quarts
for mixing solutions, a fountain syringe,
"a thermometer for testing fluids, one for
