and economy, Is the little house Illus
trated in the perspective view and
floor-plans herewith. 1t is a 6-room
house, q feet wide by 98 feet long, ex-
elusive OF the porch. It would be diff
cult to put the same amount Of build
ing material together in any other
form to make such a perfect arrange
ment of rooms, and not exceed in cost
the amount of money that this house
can be built for. Prices vary 30 much
in different parts Of the country that
it is impossible to make an estimate
of cost which will apply to every loca-
ton; but range varying from $1,400
to $1,000 may be given as a rough esti-
mate for this cosy little cottage.
This is a style of house that will
never go out of fashion. We may have
fads about different kinds Of entrance
ways and different arrangements Of
rooms; we may do away with the hall;
we may do away with the front room !;
but after we have experimental with
all the different arrangements posi-
sible to make. we shall come back to
the front hall and the front stairway
going up from 1t with a good, comfort
able living room to one side, as an
old standby for the most satisfactory
and desirable entrance to a dwelling.
Every woman likes to have a front
hall and front stairway, and she does
not care to have the stairway placed
in some inconvenient corner just be-
cause that happens to be fad Some
of the peculiar structures that are
now being built will be considered
freaky and undesirable in few years

something smart or a little different
from the ordinary; but such people
usually acknowledge after while that
they made a mistake in selecting the
house plan they did.

MAKES AN ATTRACTIVE SASH
Pale Green Satin Ribbon Lends Itself
TO Almost Any costume-How
to Fashion II.

One of the most attractive sashes
have seen this season was made Of
pale green satin ribbon eight inches
wide, folded in several narrow folds
and encircling the waist in a rather
narrow band.
In the center Of the back is a nat
bow with two loops and two long ends
that reached almost to the hem Of the
skirt. These ends each had three
lace medallions, graduated in size, set
in, the smaller one at the top.

HER LITTLE HAND IN HIS
Mr.. Pickles. Explanation as to Reason
Somewhat DlspelIed the odor
Of Romance.

Henne and Pecke were two henpeclK-
ed married men. The other day they
met, and, after a few casual remarks
concerning the weather, the subject
of women and unfortunate husbands
was-perhaps naturally discussed. To
Henne, however, suddenly came
thoughts of years ago, when he was
a happy bachelor, and (unconsciously
of what Fate had In store for him)
was walking out" girl who was,
later on, destined to bring him sor-
row and misery.
Pecke, seeing "far-away" look In
his companions eyes, inquired the
meaning. Henne retorted dramat-
ically, 81 was just then thinking, old
fellow, of those happy days long ago
when / used to hold that girls hand
in mine for hours-when-"
But the equally unfortunate Pecke
suddenly cut his companion short by
exclaiming: "Why, that's nothingl
Cheer up! Do you know, only yes
terday l held my wife's hand for three
solid hours"
"WhatY said the startled Henne. /.
Eyes, it's fact" resumed Pecke,
sorrowfully; "and declare If I'd let
loose she'd have killed me."-London

New Idea for Dressmakers.

A New York woman has inaugural
ed a new departure. She sent word
to a number of dressmakers that she
had so many dresses to make, of such
and such Materials. and 80 many 9TH
er to Ne altered, and named the al
terations to be made and asked for
bids. She will probably accept the
lowest bid, and this seems to open up
a new field in dressmaking. 1t will
also develop new variety of shrewd-
ness on the part of successful dress
makers-the ability to figure on bids.

notice they usually open their pocket
books every little while to pay a doc
tors bill. There is. however, no law
to compel them to breathe pure air II
they don't want to.
Another point of superiority about
this house is the arrangement OF the
dining room, china closet, pantry, and
kitchen 1t would be difficult to invent
an arrangement better than this for
woman who does her own work.
There is, Ia addition, good closet of
the dining room, to hold a hundred
things which a woman likes to have
near by, but which are not always in
sight. The fine. large dining room
windows is a good place. for example.
for the sewing machine; but woman
does not care to store a sewing ma
chine in the dining room. With the ar.
rangement here given, the machine
can easily be wheeled into the closet
and left there until wanted next time
A built-in back porch that can easily
be screened against flies and mosqui
toes, is another very good feature. Il
is impossible to keep flies out OF the
kitchen when they are gathered Ii
multitudes on the back porch. A
screen door is not sufficient. It is dim
cult and expensive to screen some
porches, but this one Il ~ excepuca

having a CRATE fire to keep one room
warm enough to sit in. A temperature
Of 60 to Go is warm enough for the
whole house If you have the dining
room or living room heated up to about
70. BY managing this way, probabaly
a ton of coal would be saved during
the winter.
But there is a greater advantage
than this. The open fire is not only
the most cheerful fire that you can
have. but 1t is the best ventilator that
was ever put into a house. You can
not have good air in dwelling with
out some proper means Of changing It,.

can't be doing this all the time. On
the other hand. fire in the CRATE is
drawing the foul air from near the
floor all the time. and sending 1t up
the chimney. Good air from outside
comes in through the cracks around
the doors and windows to take its
place. Some people make the mistake
of using double windows and rubber

not understand intelligent people do

a quarter Of an inch to turn back and
whip down on the wrong side, so that
no frayed edges of the ribbon will
show through the lace.
Sew the ends to the ribbon-covered
betting, then the bow over them, and
the sash is ready to wear.
The same kind of a sash without
lace insets, but with each end edged
with deep silk fringe, makes an at.
tractive sash to wear with a summer
frock. You will find II quite a simple
