Flccr Plan.

II takes away the plainness, and. In
fact, is the main difference in out
ward appearance between this little
modern cottage and the old-fashioned
one-story house that everybody avoid
ed II possible. But there are other
and more important improvements in
the new construction. Modern meth
DDS of using building paper, cement,
better mortar, and better plaster, are
working wonders in the comfort of
such little houses. 1t is Just as cheap
to use these materials as to build a
house in the old-fashioned way. In
fact, in some instances, a saving OF
money and labor may be effected
while improving the building.
The specifications provide for good
mortar that is to be gagged with &C.
ment when used below grade line.
and beam filling between and along
side of all joists on top Of the wall by
fitting brick closely underneath the
floor. 1t is also provided that the eel
lar bottom shall be leveled off and
paved with brick, or 1t may be laid
down in the more modern concrete
If the foundation bed is properly pre-
pared. There are a slop sink and
catch basin provided. the same as for
larger and more expensive houses.

BEST OF ALL INVESTMENTS
This Writer Is of Opinion That Ono
Can Not Do Better Than Put
Money Into Boy.

A professor of the Chicago univer.
sity has been indulging in figures re
lating to the cost of rearing a boy.
He says that no matter how poor a
boys parents may be it cost $4,000 to
bring him from babyhood to the age
Of eighteen. This is the minimum fol
any boy. And you can spend as much
more than this as you please
The professor. perhaps unconscious
ly conveys the impression that even
If you spend as little as $4,000 you
may not get your moneys worth.
But in our humble opinion, II 1t
should happen to cost S1,0O0,000 TO
rear a boy it is we'll worth it, Not
that we would encourage the expendi-
ture Of a million dollars on any boy.
But IS there any other investment
which pays such big returns?
1t is true. of course, that you are al
ways taking a gambling chance with
any boy. He may go wrong in spite
Of everything you can do, and yet,
looking at the matter in its very worst
aspects. there is so much that you
gain in large, human experience, In
varieties OF emotions. in expansion
The Republican. [volume] (Oakland, Md.) 1877-current, 1913-08-28

| and contraction OF the soul the mind
and the heart in rearing a boy, that
/ 1t pays under any conditions
. When you put thought and affection
and interest and encouragement. and
as much chastisement as may be
/ necessary, and hope and faith and
charity into a boy, it is better than
planting a garden. better than specu-
lating in Wall street, better than fall
ing in love with a woman. better than
anything else in the world that we
know anything about.
A boy Is a much more human docu-
ment than any other kind OF a human
being. There is more genuine re-
Spouse in a small boy than there is in
Wagner orchestra or a medium-sized
ocean. There is everything in a small
boy that there ought to be, and a
great deal more. Besides. a small boy
can cause more trouble to the square
inch than anything else on earth.
And this is the reason, professor,
why 1t pays to raise one, no matter
how much he costs.-Life.

The banality of a sea poem by AZ
fred NOyes led Philadelphia SON
neteer at the Franklin inn to say:
This poem Of the sea reminds me
Of a young woman from Illinois who
saw the Atlantic for the first time
last week at Cape May.
AS she stood on the windy beach,
gazing dreamily out over the vast blue
expanse of tumbling water, l said to
her:
so this is the first time you've
ever seen the sea, eh?'
Yes, the very first time she an
swered.
And what do you think Of itr I
asked
All she said, with an ecstatic
smile. 1T smells Just lie oysters!'"

stratford. Ancient and Modern

More than three hundred years have
passed since the birth of that colossal
genius. Shakespeare, and many
changes must have occurred in his ma
tive town within that period. The
Stratford of Shakespeare's time was
built principally OF timber, as, indeed.
it is now, and contained about 400 in
habitants. Today its population mum
bers upwards of 5000, new dwellings
have arisen where once were fields OF
wheat, glorious with the shimmering
luster of the scarlet poppy The older
buildings. for the most part, have been
demolished or altered Manufacture.
chiefly of beer, and of Shakes pearean
relics, has been stimulated into pros
porous activity. The Avon has been
spanned by new bridge of iron. The
village streets have been leveled,
swept, rolled and garnished till they
look like a Flemish drawing of the
middle ages. Even the Shakespeare
cottage, the ancient Tudor house, in
High street and the two old churches

little house like this, erected in the
outskirts Of town, where fresh air and
sunshine may be had in quantities
sufficient to promote health and good
looks
The arrangement OF the rooms is
very simple; and while the finish Is
good and neat, there is nothing ex-
pensive about the house. The plan
calls for a good cellar with concrete
wall, or with stone wall properly laid
and coated on the outside with a half
inch layer of Portland cement mortar
to insure a dry cellar
There is room in every town and
city for hundreds of such houses
Transportation is so easy, quick and
convenient on account Of the new
electric trolley lines, that there is no
longer any excuse for people budding
together in small, badly lighted, I'M
ventilated apartments, except In very
large cities.
The large veranda across the front
gives the house a good appearance

Henry Ward Reecher,s Memorx

Henry Ward Beecher, the centenary
of whose birth is being celebrated,
