as Morgan would envy. and try to improve
on, and the only u~ngainly thirg in 1t was
Rogers himself. Morgan never laid claim
to beauty. He Is richer than Rogers was,
and his art collection win be the grandest

Rogers most priced possessions were two
small pieces of paper in gold frames. one
Of them was a Bark Of England note for
E1.OOO,OOO sterling G5.OOO.CoO, and the other
the original receipt Of John Milton for So
$3.50, the sum he received for the copy
right of Paradise Lose from Simmonds,
the bookseller. The bank note was one Of
the only four which were ever struck from
a plate that was afterward destroyed. The
Rothchilds had on impression. Mr.. Coutts
had another, the Bank Of England still has
the third. Rogers, as l ave said, had the
fourth. II hung iD his parlor within any
ones reach, but valuoless to all except its
owner. No one ever thought of stealing
It, because it would have been only so much
waste paper, but Rogers touch could have
converted it into a shower of gold-New

CONTRASTS IN HUMAN LIFE
shady walks Ofte nPnraIIeI Paths of
Higher Aims In n Merry
Old world.

My old friend ]. w. Edmords Of New
York says: Does It seem strange to you
that the shady walks Of life should so often
run parallel with the path of higher aims,
such as art, literature and the like2 Here
we have Paddy the Pig with a posthumous
gliding of a reputed love of flowers and
poetryl AS to this dual instinct, we have
as an authorithy of appeal Bret Harte,
who recognized the existence Of such a pc
culiar human trait In his portrayal Of the
characters of Jack Hamlin and John Oak
hurst. Then we have the Hon. Dick Can
field as a living example. What's the
secret Of nature in this respect? My own
theory is that men of normal mold, whose
occupations force them steadily into one
groove, must seek their diversions in a
Numerically opposite channel"
Edmonds touches a soft spot. The
wicked Gibbs was a lover of art, and
much appreciated by j. Pierpont Morgan.
Edmund Clarence Stedman was a poet and
a banker. He was an imitator of Samuel
Rogers, the original mixer of finance and
poesy. Rogers was a millionaire banker
a very Croesus. He could draw unlimited
checks alike on the Bank of England and
on the treasury Of the MUSES.. At the same
time, Rogers was the ugliest man in Eng

For a few weeks I shall show a number
of very Interesting but exceedingly inexpen-
sive one-story cottages, or bungalows as
popularity termed. l believe that the build
ing of a home is indeed a business PROPOSE
ton. 1t is somewhat cheaper to own a
home than to rent, provided that the home
is built properly and does not require con-
tinua repairing. The building of a home,
however, is far more than a mere business
proposition. There is too much sentiment
connected with the building of a home to
court its worth in mere dollars and cents
and a bungalow appeals strongly to home
loving American people nowadays for two
important actors-eConomy of its cost and
its homelike possibilities.
The origin of the bungalow is no doubt
derived from the American log cabin and
these two styles are the ony two dis
tinctly original styles in American arohi-
lecture.
The first Of this series shows a simple,
beautiful homelike little bungalow and be-

HOME BUILDERS KEEP BUSY
Omaha Folks Are Still Putting Up
Houses to Live In.
RECORD FOR JUNE IS SURPRISING
VaIuc of Permits Issued in Omaha
Exceeds that of Last Year,
which was Itself a
GOodIy showing.

While the home builders all over the
country have been timidly awaiting the
outcome Of the reported money ~strinSency
and financial panic, the builders IN Omaha
have been calmly going on erecting homes
as though nothing had happened. The
records Of the building inspectors office
have been compiled for the first six
months Of the year and show that build
ing has held up remarkably well all
through the first six months of u year
which Is conceded to have natural disad-
y~antages for the investment of money. The
total figures for the six months shows
an expenditure Of 81 .976,915 on building
In the first half of 1907 and 81, 75i,i loo in
the corresponding period of this year. But
the record for June of the two years Is
especially encouraging and indicates that
business IS picking up more than ever.
In June, 1907, the building permits
amounted to S436,35O, while in June Of
his year they totalcd &l5O,l60.

Of the most attractive homes in my colIec-
ton. That is saying orsiderable when we
consider that it only cost to build a little
over $3.50.
The living room is very attractive with
It's fireplace and broad bay window and its
views in many directions. Good wall spaces
have also been left for the davenport and
piano. Dining room and living room are
directly connected through a wide-cased
opening and back OF the dining room is a
small hall leading to the bed rooms and
bath room. While the illustration shows
siding on the house, 1t will look equally
well, perhaps better, il shingled, and in
either case should be stained a mission
brown with either a moss green roof or a
dark maroon stain as the prospective
builder may desire.

The cement market in Omaha for the last
forty days has been in the most denoralized
condition ever known in the history OF
the business. Some cements have-beeu sold
for less than the cost Of production. Lately
there las been a sight rebound In prices
and the many new uses to which cement
has been put because of the low prices is
already stimulating the demand for it so
that it is likely higher prices will prevail
as the season progresses. The heaviest de-
mand for cement in this section Of the
country is during the late summer and early
fall and many are making preparations to
meet this demand. One Of the largest fac
tors in the cement market is the railroads
who have been doing no new work for some
time. New work, however, was begun by
the roads July l and 1t is expected they
will do a large amount Of work during the
next few months. The present price in
Omaha is $1.1S a barrel.

Just now" said n local dealer in this i'm
portant building commodity, there is alb
%solutely no way to ~foretell what they will
be In a week or a month from now. Values
will necessarily show fluctuations in the
future. Sale prices will move up and down
In response to heavy demand or its tenn
porary restriction. The lumber trade Of the
country and the lumber consumers should
remember that a steadily inc .ng demand
is being filled with a constantly decreasing
supply of timber. The Inevitable outcome
Of these forces working upon one another
will be a higher price level"

Men experienced in the building of homes
In Omaha for investment purposes say that
Eow is an especially attractive time for
Undertaking work Of this kind. The cheap
ness Of material compared with its pr.ce
u year or two ago is the reason given for
proselt building rom the inve tment sand
p ut.
Usually the investor in oi.y property
mikes about S Ter cent said a real IS ate
man who has built many houses for invest
ment. But now he ought to make at least
10 per cent on the investment. 1t is possible
TO secure more and better work for the
same money than could be secured in 1907.
This is one of the reasons why the build ng
record of Omaha is keeping up so excel
lently. The shrewd men are getting busy
now and they will reap the fruits of their
farsightejness."
