of the bathroom. For a hundred years
people have been learning to pay more
attention to bathrooms. There was a
time when Americans actually felt
ashamed of having a bathroom In the
house. 1t was generally little af-
fair just big enough to get into and
it was placed In the most inconven-
lent part Of the house, and, If it had
window at all, it was little nine
inch affair set up almost out OF reach.
However, as people become better ed
ucated, they are approaching more
and more the advantages of a bath
room for health and comfort. One
important consideration in arranging
a bathroom Is to have 1t over or near
the kitchen, so that the same pipes
that supply water to the tub and wash
stand will supply the kitchen sink;
and the same rule works in regard to
the wate-pipes. It not only effects a
saving In first cost, bat it is better
for several other reasons. The short
er the pipes ara, the better they win
work; and the more condensed the
space, the more easily they are kept
from freezing In the winter time.
The kitchen is large enough, and it
is both light and airy because OF the
windows on the side and the door in
the end. This door opens onto a very
comfortable back porch that can east
ly be screened from flies and mogoui-
toes.
It Is estimated that this house can
be built where conditions are all IA
vorable, for about $4,000, without
heater, plumbing, mantel or lighting

THIRD WARD HAS A BIG LEAD
$3.50 Voters Have Already Registered
for the General Election and Another
Chance is to be Given Delinquents on
Tuesday.-Big Increase Shown.

That there is not going to be any
lack of interest in the general election
IN Kenosha is shown by the regissra-
ton lists which were turned over TO
the bill posters by City Clerk Harring-
ton this morning and with one more
day in which to register the reports
show that there is total of $3.50
names on the registry list in the eight
wards of the city. This is the largest
registration list ever reported after
the first registration day and it is, ex-
pected that hundreds of names will be
added to the list when the final regis
tration is held on next Tuesday. The
law provides that voters must register
in order to be able to vote, but as in
other years it will be possible for votes
to be "sworn in.'' AS this is the last
election at which aliens will have a
chance to take part the foreigners are
taking a special interest in getting
their names on the registration blanks.
The registration shows that tulIy a
thousand votes will be cast in the
third ward of the city alone, this be,
ing nearly one-third of the voting
strength of the city. This fact has
brought home to the officials the neces-
sity of a readjustment of ward lines
in the city. The third ward shows
more registered voters than are to be
found in the three north wards of the
city and the great majority of the
voters of the city are found to be in
the third, fourth and fifth wards.
There has been no registration OF
the voters in the rural towns of the
county, but it is declared that people
in the farming districts are taking the
greatest possible interest in the com
ing election and that the vote in the
county will be record breaker. The
city officials believe that after the sec
ond registration day there will be
more than 5000 registered voters in
Kenosha. With the 1000 votes expected
from the county this will bring the
total vote up to 1000, the largest in
the history. Of Kenosha. All parties
seem to be well satisfied with the in
creased registration in the city, but
the republicans are made decidedly
hopeful by the large registration in
the south and west wards of the CITY.
The registration in the different wards
of the city is as follows:

The Long Day Closes.

) The Long Day Closes.
No star ts DER the lake
Its pale watch keeping:
The moon Is half awake
Through gray mist creeping,
The last red leaves fall round
The porch Of roses;
The clock hath ceased to sound.
The long day closes.
SIT by the silent hearth
In calm endeavor
To count the sounds OF marta
Now dumb forever.
Heed not how hope believes
And fate dispose3;
Shadow is round the caves,
The long day closes.
The lighted windows dim
Are fading slowly;
The fire that was so trim
Now quivers lowly.
Go to the dreamless bed
Where grief reposes;
Thy book Of toll Is read.
The long day closes.

The Same Old Story.

Inc Same Old Story.
The cynic shakes bis head
And talks of sordid days.
OF spreading money greed.
OF crooked men and ways.
How honor's bought and sold
For dollars and for dimes.
And sadly hearkens back
Unto the good old times.
The good old times of yorei
For men were honest then
And did not plan to steal
The goods of fellow men
When public good was goal
And honesty was king,
When law was strong and just
And virtue everything.
These modern times, they cry
Deteriorated are,
More venal and corrupt
Than former days by far,
'Tis true they do forget
In ages past our span
Diogenes in vain
Searched for an honest man.

This is one of the best Iow-cost
houses ever built 1t is medium in
size as well as in costa sort of COM
promise between the large house,
large rooms, and high ceilings of
twenty or thirty years ago and the
little, narrow, contracted, elose-com
munion affairs that are being built in
order to save expense because CT the
high price of all building materials.
The size on the ground is 26% feet
In width by AN feet long, which is
six or eight feet longer than most new
city houses that are built on this gen
eral plan.
There are fashions In houses the
same as in other things Some Of the
fashions are all right, but some are
nothing but silly fads One of these
late fashions Is the dining-room ex-
tension, which is built something after
the fashion of bay. window, but is
very much wider and has square cor
ners. Sometimes these extensions
have windows in the ends, but in
such cases they have the appearance
OF being overdone. Such an addition
to a dining room is intended to let in
an abundance of light, as well as to
add to the appearance of the room,
and is one of the most commendable
new building features.
In some of these extensions the win
doWs are placed high up; but there
is al advantage in the deep window,
especially If you want to use the
space for window seat. When the
windows come low down, wide seat
may be built just little below the
window stools, which, If carefully up
holstered, makes a very pleasant
lounging place both in winter and in
summer. These extensions must be
very carefully built and thoroughly
papered, and the paper must be very
carefully put on so as not to leave any
cracks for the wind to blow through.
Where you have so much glass sur
face, the radiation of heat goes on
very rapidly. For comfort in using
