How to Make a Small
Window Look Larger.

By the use of draperies iY cretonne,
silk, or any preferred material, small
window can be so treated that 1t can be
made to look very much larger, the re-
suit being an immense Improvement to
the room For fall and winter use room
always looks much more cozy and habs
liable when draperies in some artistic
material are used at the windows, and
when the window Is small narrow one.
If the straight side curtains are set on
a wide pole and allowed to hang partly
over the wall Of the room, the effect of
wide window is given. If the window
is rather low the rod holding the valance
can be placed above the woodwork of the
window as in the illustration.
Los Angeles herald., 1907-09-15

The general appearance of this design
is that Of cottage with low roof, stand
ing with the broad front to the street, the
roof sweeping down past the second
story and out over the front piazza. The
piazza cornice Is carried back and around
the house over the first story windows,
dividing the upper and lower story and
emphasizing the cottage appearance. The
foundation is built of faced stone and the
entire exterior walls of the superstruc-
ture are set with studding, sheathed and
covered with heavy building paper, wire
lathed and cemented with a rough "peb-
BILE DASH finish. The chimney at the
side, leading up from the fireplace in the
sitting room is carried on the outside Of
the frame and cemented over the out
side giving it the same appearance as the
wall. There are wide corner piers car
ried up at each side of the piazza and
between these are four Ionic columns.
The piazza floor is concreted and laid
with tile and the steps built Of cement
or stone. The piazza is 10 feet in width,
affording ample space for outdoor ham,
mocks and furniture. The entire piazza
is intended 10 be screened In.
The plan and arrangement Of the In
terror is one that will appeal to many
people at the present time. The day Of
small rooms isolated and shut or one
from the other is passed and now only
the house with the large, pleasant, sunny
living room with a broad fireplace will
be considered. The vestibuIe entrance is
in the center with the living room at the
right. This is 14x29 feet exclusive Of the
projected bay and fireplace. The dining
room is on the left 12x17 feet, back Of
which is the kitchen with an ample but

vestor. In their selection, proper pre-
caution means volumes.
Despite the graft outcries, when a
reputable investment house sells its ell
ents a bond issue that 1t has under
written, that security has stood a rigid
test by experts and the brokers hold
themselves under obligations not to<lead
their clients astray.
Unfortunately, there are many con-
Germs, dubbed lone sale houses that
feel no such obligation, and aim to make
fat profit on the first sale to an in
vestor, well knowing that be will be
''stung'' so badly that he will never
come back for a second venture.
