of building paper carefully fitted
around the window frames so the cas-
ings may be nailed down tight onto
them will prove very beneficial. Then
for the winter time double sashes are
a great help.
I do not approve of double windows
as a. general thing, but once in awhile
you have a window on the north side
that let's in an unnecessary amount Of
cold unless it is protected by an extra
sash. For the same reason this bay
window needs a little extra attention
at building time.
This Is a good sized house, and it
ia intended for a family where there
are a number Of children, but it is
plain and it ia not necessarily a very
expensive house. It should be built
in most locations outside Of large cit
les for $2,000-to $4,000, with interior
finish of yellow pine and a hardwood
floor in the kitchen: Provision Is
made for, good work throughout, with
an attractive stairway and piping for
gas and water in. the usual way.

Come Home with Queer. Catch.

A Breton fishing town-Concar-
:neau-has had a novel experience of
its own. One Of its trawl boats, the
Saint Louis, has just returned to port
not with the heavy cargo Of sardines
that all the good folk so much de-
sired, but with a catch Of an entirely
unwonted and unwelcome kind. This
took the form Of a monster fish meas
uring not less than 25 feet in length.
The fish is one Of the pilgrim" kind
and is associated with the shark fam
lily, though said to be less ferocious
than the ordinary shark, though, as
the monster is very rarely seen, little
is known of him. The incident has no
parallel within living Breton memory.

as for comfort the house is almost
sure to prove attractive and pleasing.
In order to have eight rooms you
need a house about this size, which
is 20 by 80 feet, exclusive of the
porches. 1t is about as near square
as you can have it, and work to ad-
vantage in laying out the rooms. You
can't take a square house and mark
out a square room in each corner the
same as you would mark off a checker
board, because you must allow for
halls, sta1rways, closets, bath room,

Of ventilation. The open stair space
acts as a 1ue to carry the warm
air from the middle of the house up
stairs and distribute it amongst the
bedrooms. Some houses are a great
deal more comfortable than others,
and the difference is caused by the
application of natural laws and the
distribution Of light and heat. A good
builder takes advantage of the prin-
ciple Of the circulation of warm air.
AS soon as air is heated it begins
to move about. A warm current of
air goes up and 1t displaces cooler air,
which must come down to find room.
This causes circulation which evens
up the temperature in the different
parts of the house and makes it feel

are at work on this bay window a
little supervision will go a long way
toward stopping all the little cracks
where the air is likely to penetrate
into the house. All such windows, Of
course, are covered with building pa

when you are working around odd
corners. 1t is a great deal easier to
tear off a corner occasionally than

to like a bay window. New England
ers are constantly trying to improve
their old-fashioned houses by the ad-
dition Of windows that project. The
idea seems to be that they look we'll

on the inside, and they admit a great

windows contain window seats that
are fitted to the shape Of the window,
deliberately upholstered and heaped
with fancy pillows. But the comfort
Of such a window seat depends q
good deal on the way the window IL
built and the way the sashes are
fitted. Where a good deal of glass is
exposed, radiation of heat takes place
rapidly, and these pretty bowers are
often too cold for comfort in the
winter time. While a house is being
built the eye Of the owner helps a
good deal when it comes to the par.
