ORIGINAL Inveterate Smoker.

The commercial traveller leaned
back in the corner of the Pullman
smoking compartment
you've all heard men say, Yes.
I'm an inyeterate smoker; smoke all
the time except when I'm asleep.
Well, ran across man last summer
that's got them all beaten; he smoked
even when he was asleep.
"He was an Italian workman and
he was riding on the trolley that runs
from Saratoga to Glens Falls. He had
a pipe in his mouth and his eyes were
shut. At regular intervals a puff OF
smoke would come from between his
lips.
81 began to watch him. wondering ii
he really was smoking in his sleep.
A few minutes and my answer came
in the shape of a good, hearty snore
After that it was-puff, snore;
puff, snore: puff snore-until his pipe
went out Then he woke up. filed his
pipe, lighted it. andNonce more-puff,

as possible, but a cheerful fire iii a
fireplace, properly built and taken
care of as it should be, sheds more
brightness and dispenses more com
fort than the cost of taking care O:
dozen fireplaces.
One feature about this house that
should attract special notice is tho
placing of the bedrooms on one side
of the house and the living rooms OF
the other side with a hall between
and the bathroom is SO arranged that
it is not necessary to go through the
living room to get toit. 1t is difficult
to plan such a division of space when
the rooms are all on one floor, but IL
is very satisfactory arrangement in
this case. In this little bungalow
there are many cupboards and con
veniences to aid in easy housekee0
ing.
The plan CT putting sink in til.
pantry is a good one if the pantry is
large enough. In this ease the dining
room and kitchen are one room. By
getting rid of the sink there is moth
ing left in the kitchen that could be
considered Objectionable or out q
place in dining room especially
when gas is used for cooking. The
dining room kitchen is in such close
communication with the pantry thai
the work may be done with the fewest
possible steps, which is another point
of value to credit up to this pretty
little cement bungalow
This arrangement also works vel
in putting in the plumbing. The bath
room and kitchen sink being so close
together, the pipes both for hot an(
cold water may be short and the
sewer connections are all close to
gether. 1t is fact that the plumbing
in some houses costs twice as much
as the plumbing in other houses thai
are no better served when the job il
done.
There is a grade entrance door al
the back, four steps below the kitchen

Toothache.

A man in London killed himself and
his son because he had the toothache.
The English are exercised about it..
They say the curse is spreading all
over the earth. They have or have
had. such strange notions about
teeth! The Indifference of many 9th
erwise intelligent and refined people
on the other side of their teeth is
something astonishing. So it's well
that the country has at last realized
that toothache is thing to be taken
in time. They need not, however, in
clude us in their sweeping statements
in the subject. A dentist tells m
that there probably never was a tim,
or a country in the world when ano
where so many people took the
proper care of their teeth as in
America today Which seems to me
a self-evident fact-New York Press

A four-room cement bungalow is an

In California for a good many years

interesting little dwellings have grown
IN popularity until it seems that the
more bungalows we have the more

The introduction of modern con-
veniences into bungalows has altered
the whole house building problem.
The first bungalows in the east were
not called by that name They were
known as summer cottages and they
were built usually on the bank of a
river or near the shore of the ocean
or some pretty lake. They were mere
shells Of houses without any attempt
to protect the family against cold
weather; but improvements have fol-
lowed until we now have not only
very artistic bungalow designs but
many of them are very convenient
and very comfortable houses to live
in winter as well as summer.
