looks well, and is a great dust collector
A simple cased opening is much to be pre-
ferred, or II some dignity is desired, 1t
looks we'll to place ON each side OF, the
opening a neat column of the Ionic order
of architecture, extending either from the
floor or a pedestal to the top of the open
ing. There should always be a light in all
entrance doors, not only that one may see
whom they are going to admit, but placing
a glass in the door makes 1t serve as an
other window.
Question-Can you give some advice on
the proper grouping of windows? Where Is
art glass appropriate?
Answer-Very few people give serious
consideration to the design and location OF
the windows. Windows should be flocated.
with reference to the wall space within
and the exterior design of the house. To
obtain a successful arrangement both in
side an out, sometimes presents difficult
problems, which only a man of considerable
practical experience can solve. This is why
the windows are placed In the exterior OF
homes in such a haphazard manner, with
no apparent effort to keen them in har-
mony with each other, or TO obtain a well
balanced symmetrical design.
Windows on the second floor should,
when possible, De placed directly over the
windows on the first floor. When this is
not possible. then they should be placed
over the center of the spaces between win
dows on the first floor. A window on the
second floor tapping half one side of a
window on the first floor always looks
very ~ungainly. Windows should never be
made too narrow or too tall A window
three feet wide and five feet high. with a
sill two feet from the floor is a well
proportioned window and when this size is
adopted It would be best to use It through
out the house. making all the windows the
same size, with the possible exception of
the bath room window and the front par
lor window. By placing windows in groups
of two or three, a very pleasing appearance
can often be obtained. which breaks away

Renfrow told the police Saturday that a

himself to half a dozen solid silver spoons

purposes, but in a large home, 1t is very
desirable to have a good-sized bath room,
with plenty of room between the fixtures.
1t is a very good plan to place a couple of
thicknesses of oiled paper we'll lapped be-
tween floors of a bath room. This reason
is obvious. A tiled floor, of course, is very
desirable, but this cannot always be in
cluded on account OF the expense. There
should always be a wainscoting In the
bathroom at least four feet high. but not
of wood, for wood wainscoting in kitchens
and in bath rooms are far from sanitary.
by using a hard cement plaster and paint
ing it several coats of white enamel marked
off In the shape of oblong tile, a very neat
and durable wainscoating is obtained.
Nickel plumbing can be obtained for about
the same price as the old style lead plumb
ing and It looks far neater. 1t is, there
fore, to be preferred.

from the general monotony of individual
windows. A very pretty group, known as
the Palladian window $50 called because or
it's similarity to a group of windows de-
signed by the famous Italian architect
known by that name) is composed of one
large window about four and a half feet
wide in the center, with two narrow win
dows joining II on each side and either a
semi-circular window or an elliptical win
dow over all three, the latter having a
loaded glass design in it. This makes a
very handsome group when properly de-
signed and located. It hooks especially
well upon a broad stairway landing where
it can be seen TO good effect from the hall.
Art glass can often be used in a window
of this character, but here there is danger.
Art glass, when properly designed and
studied, with reference to the other decora-
tons of the room and its relation to the
SUM-, gives a very rich and handsome ef-
feet, but when colors are used in it that
do not blend or harmonize with the wall
paper, rugs and general decorations of the
room, or where very bright glass is used
on the sunny side of the house, the effect
lis not pleasing to contemplate. The colored
light which radiates from an art glass
window becomes just as much a part of
the color scheme of that room as its wall
decorations; in fact, has much to do with
giving a proper hue to the latter.
Question-Can you give me a few pointers
on the planning of bath rooms in your Bee
articles?
Answer-This is probably one OF the most
i'll treated rooms in a house. 1t is always
crowded in as though 1t were an after con-
sideration. OF course, in a very small
home. a small bath room is entirely ex-
cusable, for the space is valuable for other

CHAPTER Viii.
The MISUNDERSTANDING.

No attempt was made to minimize
the truth that the blow to the division
was a staggering one. The loss OF
Smoky creek bridge put almost 1000
miles of the mountain division out Of
business. Perishable freight and time
freight were diverted to other lines.
Passengers were transferred; lunches
were served to them in the deep val
ley, and they were supplied by an in
genuous advertising department with
pictures of the historic bridge as it
had long stood, and their addresses
were taken with the promise of pic
ture of the ruins. The engineering de-
partment and the operating depart
ment united in a tremendous effort to
bring about q resumption of traffic.
Glover's men, pulled off construction,
were sent forward in train1oads. DAN
cing's linemen strung arc lights along
the creek until the canyon twinkled
1T night like mountain village, and
men In three shifts worked elbow to
elbow increasingly to run the switch

and down into the creek, so I could

realized before how high and how
how proud father always was of his
work there-Cousin Lance has often

ground and cried. How times have
changed. in railroading, haven't they?
Mr.. Sinclair was over just the other
night, and he said if they kept using
this new coal in the engines they
would burn up everything on the di-
vision. Do you know, have been wait
ing in town three or four hours now
for Cousin Lance? I feel almost like
a tramp. He is coming from the west
with the stock train. 1t was due here
hours ago, but they never seem to
know when anything is to get here the
way things are run on the railroad
now l want to give Cousin Lance
some mail before he goes through"
1.-THE passenger trains crossed the
creek over the switchbacks hours ago,
and they say the emergency grades
are f1rst-rate," said Marion Sinclair, on
the defensive. "The stock trains must
have followed right along. Your cousin
is sure to be here pretty soon. Prob
ably Mr.. McCloud will know which
train he is on, and Mr. Lee telephoned
that Mr.. McCloud would be over here
at three o'clock for his dinner. He
ought to be here now"
'Oh, dear, then l must go!"
"But he can probably tell you just
when your cousin will be in"

you wouldn't? Why, Mr.. McCloud
is delightful"
ooh, not for worlds, Marion! You
know he is discharging all the best OF
the older men, the men that have
made the road everything it is, and Of
course we can't help sympathiZing
with them over our way. For my part,
I think it is terrible, after a man has
given all of his life to building up e.
railroad, that he should be thrown out
