leader, so that he gradually finds his
home becoming more and more cherries
and less like a home. He enters his
house TO find his only son drunk and at
tempting to kiss Mary Burke, Mrs.
nelson's secretary. He upbraids the
boy, who turns on his father and ac-
cuses him of maintaining another es-
Establishment uptown. Mrs. Nelson en-
tiers the room just in time to hear the
accusation. Nelson confesses to her
that the charge is true Nelson leaves
his home and moves to the Alpine
Apartment Hotel. His daughter deter
mines to follow him. He telephones to
the Winthrops, some close friends, for
help. Alice arrives at the hotel She
begs her father to take her with him,
but he refuses and sends her to the
WinthrOps. Alice tells Tom Harding.

An attractive design for six
roomed house OF one and a half sto-
ries, comprising many desirable feat
ures, is shown in the accompanying
perspective and plans. 1t is not very
large; but fortunately, small low-ccst
houses often have advantages over
larger ones. Three of these advan-
tages are light, sunshine, and air. In
a small house, opposite windows are
necessarily near together; and the
light from one often crosses that OF
another, although they may be in diff
ferent rooms. Sunshine, of course.
carries light, and it carries life-giving
properties besides. Light, airy houses
are almost always healthful and cheer
full. In crowded cities, houses offer
Ing such advantages are always occu-
pied, while dark, dismal houses often
go begging for tenants. In this design
there are three rooms downstairs and
three rooms upstairs, and they are
arranged to provide a great deal OF
comfort and convenience.
When a man starts to build house,
he usually has some particular ideas
in mind that he wishes to have
worked into the plan. Very often
these are not practical. They have
been extracted, as a general thing,
from some other plan, and cannot well
be grated into the new design with
out spelling the symmetry. You can
not have everything in one house, no
matter what it's size or the amount of
money it costs. There are natural adj
vantages that go with the environ
ment, which cannot be successfully
transplanted This is one of the prin-
cipal reasons why architects are nee
essary. One of the most difficult prob
lens an architect runs up against is
to prevent owners from injecting into
house plans ideas that are not fitting
or practical under existing conditions.
One man insisted on having porte
cochere at the side of his house, when
the lot was not wide enough to ac-
commodate the extension. He got his
