Sometimes It is necessary to build

general thing lots are deep enough to

conditions as we find them and make
the best of It. Sometimes these mar
row lots are in very desirable neigh
Dorhoods, convenient for transporta-
ton and convenient for other reasons
and by building q house to fit the lot
such property may be made very com
Portable and attractive.
This design shows a house only
eighteen feet wide, but the length Is
thirty eight feet six inches, exclusive
OF the front porch. Such a shape nee
essarily requires that one room shall
follow another, sometimes with very
long dark narrow hall, but this plan
avoids that difficulty by putting q
room at the back end of the hall and
by connecting the kitchen with the
dining-room by way Of the pantry.
Then the upper part OF the house is
laid out with bedroom In each end
and q bathroom opposite the upper
hallway In the center. This arrange
ment requires that the bathroom shall
be lighted by q dormer window, the
design Of which is very neat and at
tractive. It adds great deal to the
appearance OF the house because 1t is
ornamental as well as useful. Such
attachments make up the difference
between common cheap looking
house and satisfactory, useful, orna-
mental habitation that Is at once very
pleasing and interesting.
