Another splendid feature is the size
Of the bathroom. For hundred years
people have been learning to pay more
attention to bathrooms. There was q

ashamed Of having a bathroom In tn

the wate-pipes. It not only effects q

There are fashions in houses the

fashions are all right. but some are
nothing but silly fads. One of these
late fashions is the dining-room ex-

such cases they have the appearance

windows come low down, a wide seat
may be built just a little below the

METHODS OF THE PROMOTER
Southern States overrun by Men
Seeking Jobs as Managers or So
Called Sales Agents.

The swindlers are using the popu.
lar interest In cooperation to their
own gain. says the Country Gentle
man. Every meritorious idea Is copi.
ed by the grafters. and cooperation
Is by no means an exception The
word cooperation" has been one to
conjure with. For example there
have for some years been companies
using the word cooperative" In their
titles, They have done considerable
business for farmers. many of whom
have been attracted by the name. The
word Is misused when such companies
are purely stock companies organ.
lied for the purpose Of making dlvi.
dends like other private concerns, as
many OF them are. A common device
is to use the word farmers" Since
many cooperative companies are sim
ply farmers companies 1t Is easy
to spread the idea that they are CO.
operative affairs, though they are not
and no such claims are actually made
In promoting the concerns. The Cen.
tral states were ov0rrun few years
aso by promoters who organized
c-eameries merely to sell machinery
to equip them. The southern states
have been the hunting ground for
other promoters who were merely
seeking jobs as managers or So
called sales agents These men were
really acting as commission men un.
der disguise.
To obviate such frauds, the German
law forbids all cooperative stores
from trading with any one but their
members. These cooperative con-
Germs have no secrets. They are sim.
pie and direct in their dealings, and
any member should have as clc-s an
Idea Of their operations as any other
member. Since there are no profits
to be shared In real cooperation. any
promoters suggestion Of such should
at once be regarded with suspicion.
The one question to ask Is: Do all
the members hold absolutely the
same interest and receive the same
benefits! Are all the dealings open
