Orders in the basement exactly under
the bearing partitions of the first
story; and where possible the bear
ing partitions on the second floor
should line up exactly with those OF
the first story. There is nothing like
having a good backbone in house in
the way of bearing partitions by hav-
ing them lined up straight from foun-
dation to roof.
The accompanying design serves as
a good illustration of these principles.
Although an extremely sensible and
convenient house, it's exterior appear
ance is distinctive and artistic. 1t
couldn't be called fussy, yet there is
enough Of characterization to escape
monotony. The proportions are good
and the material used-cement pIas-
ter on metal lath-is the most popular
at the present time for htgh-grade
residence work.
The interior is arranged very sim
ply, the idea being for the maximum
of rOomy conveniences. There is a
very large living room of the kind so
popular in modern houses. The din
/ ing room is OF good size and is very
conveniently placed with reference to
the kitchen, having a buffers pantry
| between. An open stairway along the
back Of the living room leads to the
second floor. There are found two
very large bedrooms, a liberal supply
of clothes closets and a bathroom.
This house, having a width of rs
feet and length of % feet, is esti-
mated to cost $4,000, using a good
grade of hardwood flooring and finish
and with the modern conveniences OF
| plumbing, electric wiring, etc.

Mr. William A. Radford will answer
questions and give advice FREE OF

subject of building, for the readers of this

A good lesson in home building may
be learned from the large operators
who make business of building up
whole streets in the suburbs with
houses of medium size for the purpose
of selling the improved property at a
profit, besides increasing the valua-
ton of the remaining vacant property
in the neighborhood. These real es-
tate operators have found that it pays
them best to give great deal OF at
tentiOn to the design of their houses.
or course every house must be SUBJ
gtantially built and arranged for prac-
tical convenience and utility; but this
is not enough. Such houses must be
attractive also. Each must have a dis
tinctive, individual appearance.
This matter of distinctive appear
ance is especially important where q
large number of new houses are being
put up at the same time in the same
neighborhood; for nothing looks quite
SO cheap and uninviting as a whole
line of new houses all packed in close
together and all of the same monoton-
Gus appearance.
While the average home builder
does not have this exact problem to
contend with, still he should take
warning from such examples and
guard against conditions that may
amount to practically the same thing
If he builds house of commonplace
appearance, one that looks just like a
hundred others which have been built,
or may be built in the future, in the
neighborhOod, he will find that there
is nothing to distinguish his house
from the rest. 1t will depreciate the
value on that account, for the pros
pective customer these days invaria-
bly, wants house that he can take
pride in.
And in addition to the increased
value of such house at times of sale
there is also more important phase
of the question. A house of attrac-
