As he went up he found that he had

He never knew how he reached the

Hogan picked up the body of the

with her, He saw that she was still
living The bullet had only pierced
her arm, but she was as unconscious
as though the blow which Hogan dealt
had fallen on her own head.
A roar Of cheering greeted him as
he carried the woman out into the

tried to grasp his hand. But Hogan
turned and made his way slowly back
into the burning building, They tried

Up, up he went, through drifting
clouds of smoke and scorching fire.
Now he was on the upper floor again
and had picked up the body OF the
drug-crazed man. He swung him in
his arms, but the weight was too
heavy and Hogan pulled him down
the stairs after him, wrapped in his

The smoke filled his nostrils and
Hogan dared not breathe, because
as all fire-hghters know, an inhalation

he pulled the madman through that

Small houses for small families are
required in greater numbers than any
other style of building, 1t is said that
the average family contains five mem
bers. This means that a great many
families have only from two to four
members.
The remark has often been made
that no roof is big enough to cover
two families certainly the happiest
way TO live is In a home of ones own,

The design here illustrated shows
a house that costs very little more
to build than a one-story cottage.
There are only two bedrooms and a

is right in every respect, even to the
placing of the chimney.
There is a great advantage in hav-
ing the chimney in the center of the
house. You never have trouble with
a roof leaking around a chimney that
is build through the peak, but the
OF expressive profanity
wasted on chimneys near the caves is
tremendous. When the water races
down the roof, it seems to prefer an

it does at the caves; at least a great
many men feel that way at times.
Theoretically it is easy to steer the
water around the chimney; but theory
don't always cover the whole ques-
tion. Sometimes snow banks up
against the chimney, which melts a
little bit every day, and at night
freezes into an ice bank, and this
changes the situation around the
chimney considerably. After while
the rains come, sometimes in hurry;
and before the ice bank has time to
get out of the way, somebody down
below gets a bath and some expen-
