Small houses for small families are
required In greater numbers than any
other style OF building. II is said that
the average family contains five men,

families have only from two to four
members.
The remark has often been made
that no roof is big enough TO cover
two families certainly the happiest
way to live is in a home OF your own
Judging from the misery in some large
houses, there has been no change in

may call II selfishness or what you
like, but the fact remains that there
can only he one mistress In one house
Things must go TO her liking. or some
one suffers The only excuse for DIFF
ferent families crowding into one
house is the expense OF building sep
arate houses-which means that II
small houses were more plentiful
there would be less difficulty.
This plan shows house that costs
very little more to build than a one
story cottage. There are only two
bedrooms and bathroom upstairs,
besides big store room; while the
downstairs is perfectly arranged for
comfort and convenience.
The caves are but little higher than
on cottage. The room upstairs Is
secured by means OF a roof having
four gables. which is an easy roof to
build. and one that is understood by
every house carpenter. II is right in
every respect. even to the placing OF
the chimney.
There is a great advantage OF hay-
ing the chimney in the center OF the
house. You never have trouble with

Window seats are used In winter
more than in summer. and they
should be built accordingly. There Is
more or less cold air coming in or cir.

For this reason the window seat
should be protected by the back, which
