1t is one Of the healthful signs of
present day building that the interior
arrangement of house is given more
attention and Is considered more inn
portant than is its exterior appear
ance. Home builders have outgrown
that period when matters of design
where regulated by what the neigh
bors would think.
A generation ago every house had to
have its front and back parlor; the
former preferably garnished with a
round tower bay window arrangement
on the corner and the exterior elab-
orately supplied with fancy orna-
ments, If the building was to command
any distinction at all in the commun-
ity; and all of this was to the general
detriment Of the home interior.
A modern house, on the other hand,
is designed to meet the needs of the
family life, providing rooms that are
we'll lighted, we'll ventilated, of proper
size and so arranged that the work
of house keeping may be reduced to
It's lowest terms.
The architect draws his floor plans
and let's the exterior appearance large
ly take care of itself. Yet, in spite of
this, the modern houses planned in
this way are far more attractive in
their general exterior appearance than
were the pretentious. over-ornamented
dwellings of old
Simplicity and directness are the
two first requirements for successful
design-elements which come strongly
into play in this present-day idea. of
home planning,
In the accompanying design the
most important consideration was to
have the first floor so planned that
an impression of spaciousness be
gained upon entering the front door;
at the same time it was desired that
the dining room and kitchen be sep
arated from the rest of the house at
times, when a certain privacy there

There were a good many hippos
near this camp. If one went down to
the river during the heat of the day,
one might wait for hours, but no sign
of any such creature would appear.

hippo must be able to stay for hours
under water, though he may get
breath unseen by putting up the tip
only of his nose under cover of some

The natives rarely succeed in kill

ally BY moonlight when the hippos
come out of the water and roam
about on land The native hunter
conceals himself beside one OF the
wellworn tracks and shoots the poor
animal at a range OF about two yards,
It is lucky that the natives have no
better guns, as in the dry season the
river is so shallow in parts that when
they (the hippos) sink one can see
their every movement under water.

1t is very true that many of US pre-
fer reading something thrilling, and
fascinating about very fashionable so
ciety, or very Bohemian artists, or
very wild west, or something very
troublesome about problems, or very
sentimental about souls or states of
mind These things are so very diff
ferent from anything that anybody
really knows that they seem to be as
eagerly read as easily written. But
those of us who read these things can
never know the peculiar, satisfied
and comfortable enjoyment that the
books which are like looking into PEG
pies windows give the rest of US.
