ant than with the landlord. At such a
time, the owner realizes that anything
which by catching the eye and the
fancy of the prospective purchaser
makes a house sell more readily is
something decidedly to his advantage.
The man who is compelled to borrow
money in order to build his house,
usually endeavors to keep the sum that
he borrows down to the lowest pos
sible notch and will cut down
wherever he can in order to accom-
plish this object But it is possible to
carry this pruning too far. To the
man unfamiliar with the cost of build
ing, the things which appear to Je
most expensive are those items of in
terror finish and decoration which add
the touch of elegance and refinement
to the house. For the sake of saving
from S1O0 to $500-and often nearer
the former figure than the latter-he
will omit such items as fireplaces.
mantels, built-in china closets or at
tractive stair finish.

these features that he has omitted; !;
but he forgets that it will cost very
much more to add them later than to
put them in at the time of building;
to say nothing of the fact that those
things which we put off until another
time are very apt to be left undone.
1t would be far wiser to cut down
in some of the hidden features that he
may regard as essential, than to omit
those which show upon the surface
and which make the difference be-
tween a box-lilSe barracks and home.
When you stop to figure the matter

additional which man will have to
borrow in order to include the items
that will make his home attractive will
at most add only SIS or $50 year to
the interest charges he will have to
pay, while they will add fully a thou

FIVE years, had a breaking out on her

Then the blisters would break through

made an essential feature of the de-
sign; and the same thing is true of the
built-in china closet in the dining room.
The design illustrated herewith is
an excellent example of the small
house equipped with all the attractive
little features which are so much ap-
preciated by the housewife and in such
demand by those who are looking to
purchase a home. but which, at the
same time, do not cost very much
when provided for in the original plans
and put in at the same time the rest
of the work is done. Notice, for in
stance, the finely located fireplace with
built-in book cases on each side and
built-in seat The columns opening be-
tween living room and dining room are
also an attractive feature. adding
greatly to the charm of the place. A
suitable space is reserved in the dining
room along the inside wall for built
in sideboard, If desired.
A desirable feature of this design Is
the arrangement of the stair hall sepa-
rated from the rooms of the first floor
This is the way it should be, in case
it is ever desired to rent room, since
the rooms on the second floor are di-
rectly accessible from the front en-
trance without disturbing anyone on
the first floor.
The economy of this design may be
seen from the fact that the house has

BIRD SLAUGHTER is STILL ON
Heavy Demand in London for Plumes
Blamed for the Continued
Staying.

London--The destruction of the
osprey and other beautiful birds con-
tinues unchecked, as the latest re-
turns of the London plume sales
prove. OF osprey feathers, 11,000
ounces were sold, and the fear that
this bird is being gradually extermin-
ated in the cruelest fashion is borne
out by the high prices paid for the
feathers. In all, 3,2O6, birds of para
disc were sold, many of these coming
from British possessions. The same
may be said OF the crowned pigeons,
parrots and macaws, kingfshers and
white cranes. In fact, Africa is being
ransacked by the plume hunters, who
recklessly kill the birds that destroy
the tsetse and other dangerous flies.
The trade with India and the col
onies still continues, and ii is clear
that no law forbidding the expectation
OF plumes are OF much avail while the
London market Is open to the pllme
trade.
