Some of the best houses in the lake
shore suburbs north of Chicago are
built after this plan. Sometimes the
large bedroom upstairs is divided to
make two rooms, and occasionally
other minor changes are made, but
this arrangement of rooms usually is
rather closely adhered to in houses
of this build.
There is a hall in the center wide
enough for a handsome open stair,
but in this particular house you go
upstairs backwards, that is, you go to
the rear end of the hall and start up
toward the front instead of going up
from front TO rear, as in the ordinary
house. This brings the turn and the
landing in the front end of the upper
hall, where certain floor space that
is usually puzzle to an architect may
be utilized to advantage. You all
know of houses where the headroom
over the front stair is completely
wasted, sometimes worse than wasted,
because 1t is impossible to dress it
up TO look right. For that reason this
backward front stair is an improve
ment.
There also is an advantage in plac-
ing the big chimney at the rear of the
hall. When the days are cold and
dreary you get a nice bright cheerful
glow from the CRATE fire emanating
from what would otherwise be the
darkest corner in the house, and this
arrangement leaves the large living
room free for the most artistic dis
play of furniture. Such a fire place
corner may be made into a very artis-
tic lounging place, and it offers a
splendid wall space for a rather large
set of book cases. Another advantage
IN putting the chimney well back is
that you get the kitchen flue just
where you want It, and the one chin

arrangement you get the floor space
divided up into large rooms instead
of having smaller rooms and more of

Judge Mayer Sulzberger, president

says Of the letter addressed by the sec.
retary of state to Mr.. Jacob II. Schlff:
THE letter of Secretary Root is the
most important advance that has been
made by our government to protect
the rights of Jewish citizens of this
country in Russia. For 40 years there
has been more or less diplomatic wri.
ting ending in nothing practical. At
last Secretary Root has boldly taken
the position that Russia must observe
the treaty of 1882, or otherwise this
government will terminate Il and the
treaty OF 1887, and thus leave Russia
and ourselves without any treaty.
The letter of Mr.. Root shows all this.
Though yelled in the polite phraseolo-
gy of diplomatic intercourse, II Is per-
fectly plain to the Russian govern
ment. / think that this is the begin.

tion, which is big with possibilities for

manly inslstence on the rights OF
American Jews"
