One on The Kaiser.

The German emperor is, as every
n knows, an advocate of the simple
life and has determined to put down
the tendency to luxurious living so
prevalent in the aristocratic circles
of Berlin. A great court lady hap
pened to be the object of a sharp
lecture on extravaganza from the
kaiser, and she resolved to retaliate.
She appeared at a recent court ball
with her husband, whose linen was
shamefully "got up" so badly as to
attract the emperor's disappearing
gaze. my FRIEND" said the kaiser,
II cannot congratulate you on your
la%undress." The seemingly we'll mer-
tied rebuke did not discomfort the de-
linquent's wife. "Sire," replied the
~aristocratic dame, "since hearing your
majesty's remarks 1 have taken to
washing my husbands shirts myself"
Gossip does not relate what the i'm
perial advocate of economy thought
or said, but the story is true, and is
going the rounds at Berlin to the
secret amusement Of those who hear it.

A full-two story, seven-room house
of a style like this is very popular
generally in the smaller cities. AS it
is only % feet in width this house
may be built on an ordinary narrow
city lot.
It is just as necessary to specialize
in designing houses as it is in any
other line of business. Living con
ditions differ a great deal as the town
increases in size, and we are obliged
to build houses to fit the changing
conditions. When a village has 100
Inhabitants 20 or 80 houses will hold
them all. Each house may occupy a
corner and have an acre or two of
land for air space and for growing
fruits and vegetables. There are no
sewers, curbs or pavements; the
streets are not lighted at night; there
are no policemen or other public SER
wants to pay; SO the tax levy on a two
acre lot is not very oppressive.
But when the boomers get to
work, advertising the wonderful
advantages of the place, the
population increases in some places
with great rapidly; then grafters
come along with their various
improvement schemes, and ex-
penses soon mount up until a two.

man makes out his bill.

room and a good hall in the front
part, and dining room and bath room
in the center with an extension for
the kitchen. A kitchen with three
sides to the weather fits a lot of this
kind to perfection. You can't get too
much light and air into a kitchen. It
is the most important room in the
house, a room where a woman spends
most of her time, and you can't make
it too pleasant or convenient. Narrow
city lots are not well calculated to
supply light, especially during the
fall and early winter months, but a
kitchen built in this fashion comes
about as near solving the problem as
Is possible to do.
